Answer:1) the total distance is the sum of the two distances

60 km +  45 km = 105 km

2) The displacement is the net movement, or the difference between the initial position and the final position

Call x the initial position, then the final position is x + [60km - 45km]

And the displacement is x + (60km - 45km) - x =60km -45 km = 15 km

How much energy is required to heat 70 g of water at 20°C to boiling
choli [55]

Answer:

Q=23,430J

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since we compute the required energy via:

Q=mC\Delta T

Whereas m is the mass which here is 70 g, C the specific heat which for water is 4.184 J/(g°C) and ΔT is the temperature difference which is:

\Delta T=100-20=80\°C

Therefore, the energy turns out:

Q=70g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}*80\°C\\ \\Q=23,430J

Best regards.

A piano string having a mass per unit length equal to 4.70 10-3 kg/m is under a tension of 1 400 N. Find the speed with which a
sweet [91]

Answer:

The speed of the sound wave on the string is 545.78 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass per unit length of the string, μ = 4.7 x 10⁻³ kg/m

tension of the string, T = 1400 N

The speed of the sound wave on the string is given by;

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }

where;

v is the speed of the sound wave on the string

Substitute the given values and solve for speed,v,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{1400}{4.7*10^{-3}} }\\\\v = \sqrt{297872.34}\\\\v = 545.78 \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the sound wave on the string is 545.78 m/s.

If a migrating loon flies at an average speed of 19 m/s, what is its average speed in mi/hr?
zlopas [31]

Unit conversion is a way of converting some common units into another without changing their real value. The average speed of the migrating loon flies is 45.5019 miles/hr.

<h3>What is Unit conversion?</h3>

Unit conversion is a way of converting some common units into another without changing their real value. for, example, 1 centimeter is equal to 10 mm, though the real measurement is still the same the units and numerical values have been changed.

Given that migrating loon flies at an average speed of 19 m/s. Now, since 1 meter is equal to (1/1609.34) miles and 1 second is equal to (1/3600) seconds. Therefore, we can write the speed as,

\rm Speed = 19\ \dfrac{meter}{second}\\

         =19 \times \dfrac{\frac{1}{1609.34}\rm\ miles}{\frac{1}{3600} \rm\ hours}

         = 19 × (3600/1609.34) miles/hr

         = 42.5019 miles/ hr

Hence, the average speed of the migrating loon flies is 45.5019 miles/hr.
