A turtle takes 3.5 minutes to walk 18 m toward the south along a deserted highway. A truck driver stops and picks up the turtle.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

3.59 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity is defined as:

\frac{Total displacement}{Total time}

The turtle first walks 18m south, and then is taken 1,1Km (or 1100m) north. Thus, the total displacement  is 1082m north (1100m north - 18m south).

Now we have to calculate the total time, which will be equal to the sum of the time the turtle walked and the time it was taken by truck.

The walking time is 3.5 minutes. Since 1 minute = 60 seconds, then the walking time is 210 seconds.

To calculate the truck time we use the equation:

Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

Where the distance the truck travelled is 1100m and the speed of the truck is 12m/s.

Thus,

Truck time= \frac{1100m}{12m/s}= 91.67s

The total time is the sum of the walking time and the truck time.

Total time = 210s + 91.67s = 301.67s.

As mencioned previously, the average velocity is equal to total displacement/ total time, thus:

Average velocity = \frac{1082m}{301.67s} = 3.59 m/s North

Since the average velocity is a vector, it has a magnitude and a direction. In this case the magnitude is 3.59 m/s and the direction is north since the turtle's final displacement is north of where it started.

"What is the magnifying power of an astronomical telescope using a reflecting mirror whose radius of curvature is 5.9 m and an e
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The Magnifying power of a telescope is M = 109.26

Explanation:

Radius of curvature R = 5.9 m = 590 cm

focal length of objective f_{objective} = \frac{R}{2}

⇒ f_{objective} = \frac{590}{2}

⇒ f_{objective} = 295 cm

Focal length of eyepiece f_{eyepiece} = 2.7 cm

Magnifying power of a telescope is given by,

M = \frac{f_{objective} }{f_{eyepiece} }

M = \frac{295}{2.7}

M = 109.26

therefore the Magnifying power of a telescope is M = 109.26

how to A golf ball of mass 0.045 kg is hit off the tee at a speed of 45 m/s. The golf club was in contact with the ball for 3.5
Alexandra [31]

Answer: a) 12857.1 m/s/s b) 578.6 N

Explanation:

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = mV2 - mV1

V = AT, 45 / .0035 = 12857.1 m/s/s

(b) .045 x 12857.1 = 578.6 N

A girl throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounc
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

F = 800N

the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Explanation:

Applying the impulse-momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = m∆v

F = (m∆v)/t

Where;

F = force

t = time

m = mass

∆v = v2 - v1 = change in velocity

Given;

m = 0.80 kg

t = 0.050 s

The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounces back with this same speed.

v2 = 25 m/s

v1 = -25 m/s

∆v = v2 - v1 = 25 - (-25) m/s = 25 +25 = 50 m/s

Substituting the values;

F = (m∆v)/t

F = (0.80×50)/0.05

F = 800N

the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N
