A person on a road trip drives a car at different constant speeds over several legs of the trip. She drives for 10.0 min at 50.0

km/h, 19.0 min at 100.0 km/h, and 60.0 min at 55.0 km/h and spends 40.0 min eating lunch and buying gas. What is the average speed for the entire trip (

<h2>The average speed for the entire trip is 47.5 m/s .</h2>

It is given that for different time span car have different speed and also the person spend 40\ min=\dfrac{40}{60}\ hrs =0.67\ hrs\ . in eating lunch and buying gas.

We know , average speed is total distance covered by total time taken .

Therefore , average speed , v=\dfrac{total\ distance }{total\ times}

v=\dfrac{\dfrac{10}{60}\times 50+\dfrac{19}{60}\times 100+\dfrac{60}{60}\times 55}{\dfrac{10}{60}+\dfrac{10}{60}+\dfrac{60}{60}+ \dfrac{40}{60}}\\\\\\v=47.5\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

A coin is placed on a vinyl stereo record that is making 33 1/3 revolutions per minute on a turntable. (a) In what direction is
mamaluj [8]

Answer: a) The acceletarion is directed to the center on the turntable. b) 5 cm; ac= 0.59 m/s^2; 10 cm, ac=1.20 m/s^2; 14 cm, ac=1.66 m/s^2

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider teh expression of the centripetal accelartion for a circular movement, which is given by:

ac=ω^2*r where ω and r are the angular speed and teh radios of the circular movement.

w=2*π*f

We know that the turntable is set to 33  1/3 rev/m so

the frequency 33.33/60=0.55 Hz

then w=2*π*0.55=3.45 rad/s

Finally the centripetal acceleration at differents radii results equal:

r= 0.05 m  ac=3.45^2*0.05=0.50 m/s^2

r=0.1  ac=3.45^2*0.1=1.20 m/s^2

r=0.14 ac=3.45^2*0.14=1.66 m/s^2

scientific endeavor should only be pursued after known tradeoffs associated with the research have been considered. True or Fals
AfilCa [17]
This is false. There were many times in history when people discovered something that they didn't even know was possible or didn't even plan to discover it. Knowing tradeoffs doesn't mean that something won't surprise you or that all will go according to plan.

Give reasons for the following:
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

a. lower surface area, less resistence

b. more surface area, the load is split so no single tire overstrained

c. more surface area, more resistance against the sand. human steps sink down in the sand.

d. rapid change in air pressure on eardrums lead to somewhat-painful tension

e. air would always find its way in so no pressure difference can be achieved

(would indeed appreciate the brainliest if you appreciate the work)
