Answer:

58.24 Km/h.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance (d) = 495 Km

Time (t) = 8 h 30 mins

Speed (S) =?

Next, we shall express 8 hours 30 mins to hours.

We'll begin by convert 30 mins to hour.

60 mins = 1 h

Therefore,

30 mins = 30 mins × 1 h/ 60 mins

30 mins = 0.5 hour.

Thus,

8 h 30 min = 8 + 0.5 = 8.5 hours

Speed is define as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance /time

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed as shown below:

Distance (d) = 495 Km

Time (t) = 8.5 hour

Speed (S) =?

Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 495 Km / 8.5 hour

Speed = 58.24 Km/h

Thus, the speed is 58.24 Km/h.

ELEN [110]

It is a type capacitor is in which two metal plates arranged in such a way so that they are connected in parallel . The potential energy is stored in the capacitor will be 2.7×10⁻⁵.

<h3>What is parallel plate capacitor ?</h3>

It is an type capacitor is an in which two metal plates arranged in such a way so that they are connected in parallel and have some distance between them.

A dielectric medium is a must in between these plates. helps to stop the flow of electric current through it due to its non-conductive nature .

The given data in the problem is;

Q is the charge= 1.5 µC

V is the change in voltage across the plates is = 36 V.

U is the potential energy=?

The formula for the potential energy is given by;

\rm U= \frac{1}{2} \times Q \times V \\\\ \rm U= \frac{1}{2} \times 1.5\times 10^{-6} \times 36 \\\\  \rm U=2.7\times10^{-5}

Hence the potential energy is stored in the capacitor will be 2.7×10⁻⁵.

How frequently do most coastal areas experience high tides?
Alex777 [14]

It doesn't matter where you are.  "Tides" happen twice (hi - lo - hi - lo) in about 24 hours and 50 minutes.  Anywhere.

If it doesn't do two complete cycles in 24 hours 50 minutes, then it's not tide.

3. Una cuerda de guitarra tiene 60 cm de longitud y una masa de 0.05 kg de masa. Si se tensiona mediante una fuerza de 20 N. La
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

f1 = 12.90 Hz

Explanation:

To calculate the first harmonic frequency you use the following formula for n = 1:

f_n=\frac{n}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{M/L}}

f_1=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{M/L}}    ( 1 )

It is necessary that the unist are in meters, then you have:

L: length of the string = 60cm = 0.6m

M: mass of the string = 0.05kg

T: tension on the string = 20 N

you replace the values of L, M and T in the expression (1) for getting f1:

f_1=\frac{1}{2(0.6m)}\sqrt{\frac{20N}{0.05kg/0.6m}}=12.90\ Hz

Hence, the first harmonic has a frequency of 12.90 Hz
