A car travels 2155.0m in 195.9s. What is the car's average speed?

inna [77]

Average speed of the car is 11 m/s

Explanation:

Speed is calculated by the rate of change of displacement.
It is given by the formula, Speed = Distance/Time
Here, distance = 2155 m and time = 195.9 s

Speed of the car = 2155/195.9 = 11 m/s

How to charge a laptop battery without a charger?

Likurg_2 [28]

I dont know if it right but <span>Use a universal power adapter. This is perhaps the most obvious solution to your battery woes. Readily found at most retail outlets that carry electronics, a universal power adapter can range anywhere in price from $30 to $100 or more. The adapter comes with multiple tips, one of which will likely fit your laptop’s charging port. When plugged in, the adapter will not only power your laptop, but will charge its battery as well.</span>

Newtons law of garvitation is known as universal law. Why

xeze [42]

Answer:

It is called so because it is applicable on all bodies having mass, and the bodies will be governed by the same law, that is newton's law of gravitation. Thus, as it is applicable universally, it is called as universal law.

*A car is going through a dip in the road whose curvature approximates a circle of radius 150m. At what velocity will the occupa

Valentin [98]

Answer:

v= 14.85 m/s

Explanation:

When at the bottom of the dip, the only force that keeps the car in the circular trajectory, is the centripetal force.
This force is not a new force, is just the net force aiming to the center of the circle.
In this case, is just the difference between the normal force (always perpendicular to the surface, pointing upward) and the force that gravity exerts on the car (which is known as the weight), pointing downward.
So, we can write the following expression:

$F_{cent} = F_{n} - F_{g} (1)$

It can be showed that the centripetal force is related to the speed by the following expression:
$F_{cent} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} (2)$

The normal force, it is called the apparent weight, because it would be the weight as measured by a scale.
Replacing (2) in (1), and solving for Fn, we get:

$F_{n} = m*\frac{v^{2} }{r} + m*g (3)$

Now, we need to find the value of v that makes Fn, exactly 15% more than the weight m*g, so we can write the following equation:

$F_{n} = 1.15*F_{g} = m*\frac{v^{2}}{r} +F_{g} (4)$

Replacing Fg by its value, simplifying, and solving for v, we get:

$v = \sqrt{0.15*g*r} = \sqrt{9.8 m/s2*0.15*150m} = 14.85 m/s (5)$
