Answer:

V_avg = 578.6364 miles/hr

Explanation:

Given:

- The distance between airports d = 1,273 miles

- The time taken for the flight t = 2.2 hr

Find:

The average speed of the jet

Solution:

- The average speed of the jet is given by V_avg:

V_avg = Total distance traveled / Total time

V_avg = 1273 / 2.2

V_avg = 578.6364 miles/hr

Find the magnitude of acceleration (ft/s^2) a person experiences when he or she is texting and driving 58mph, hits a wall, and c

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

350 ft/s²

Explanation:

First, convert mph to ft/s.

58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s

Given:

v₀ = 85.1 ft/s

v = 0 ft/s

t = 0.24 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s

a = -354 ft/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².

A wire carries a steady current of 2.20

alina1380 [7]

By definition we know that the force is the vector product of the vector of the current by the length with the magnetic field vector. The current in this case goes in a positive "Y" direction. If we assume that the magnetic field goes in the positive "K" direction, then the result will be in the positive "X" direction. Attached solution.

Which of the following phenomena are due to the electric interaction? (Select all that apply.) surface tension in water friction

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Surface tension in water

Friction between tires and pavement

Dissolution of salt in water

Explanation:

Surface tension in water: It is due to the electrostatic force of attraction (cohesive force) between water molecules.

Friction between tires and pavement: It is due to the attractive force between tires and pavement.

Dissolution of salt in water: The ions of $Na ^ +$ and $Cl ^ -$ separate due to the strong attraction of water molecules.

Melissa's favorite exercise equipment at the gym consists of various springs. in one exercise, she pulls a handle grip attached

konstantin123 [22]

The formula for force exerted on/by a spring is

F = k*e where k is the spring constant and x is the distance stretched from unstrained position. This should allow you to find what you need.

Using F = k x e,

where k is the spring constant,

and e is the extension,

The F is her weight = 45 X 0.80

= 36 N
