Answer:

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

Explanation:

Average Speed

Given an object travels a total distance d and took a total time t, then the average speed is:

$\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{d}{t}$

The mailman first drives d1=7 km at v1=15 km/h. The time taken to drive is:

$\displaystyle t1=\frac{d1}{v1}=\frac{7}{15}=0.467\ h$

Then he drives d2=7 km at v2=43 km/h taking a time of:

$\displaystyle t2=\frac{d2}{v2}=\frac{7}{43}=0.163\ h$

The total time is

t=0.467 h + 0.163 h = 0.63 h

The total distance is

d = 7 km + 7 km = 14 km

The average speed is:

$\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{14}{0.63}=22.2\ km/h$

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

A particle leaves the origin with an initial velocity v → = (3.00iˆ) m/s and a constant acceleration a → = (−1.00iˆ − 0.500jˆ) m

Answer:

the position vector (x,y) will be (1.5 m,-2.25 m) and the velocity vector (vx,vy) will be ( 0 m/s , -1.5 m/s) when x reaches its maximum x coordinate

Explanation:

Since the velocity is related with the acceleration and coordinates through

vx²=v₀x²+2*ax*x

where

vx = velocity in the x direction

v₀x = initial velocity in the x direction = 3 m/s

ax = acceleration in the x direction = −1.00 m/s²

x= coordinates in the x-axis

when x reaches its maximum coordinate , then vx=0

thus

vx²=v₀x²+2*ax*x

0 = (3 m/s)² + 2* (−1.00 m/s²)*x

x= 1.5 m

also for the time t

vx = v₀x + ax*t → t= (vx-v₀x)/ax = (0- 3 m/s)/ (−1.00 m/s²) = 3 seconds

for the y coordinates

y = y₀+v₀y*t + 1/2 ay*t²

where

v₀y = initial velocity in the y direction = 0 m/s

ay = acceleration in the x direction = −0.5 m/s²

y= coordinates in the y-axis

y₀= initial coordinate in the y-axis =0

then since y₀=0 and v₀y=0

y = 1/2*ay*t²

y = 1/2*ay*t² = 1/2*(−0.5 m/s²)*(3 s)² = -2.25 m

and

vy=v₀y+ ay*t= 0+(−0.5 m/s²)*(3 s)= (-1.5 m/s)

therefore the position vector (x,y) will be (1.5 m,-2.25 m)

and the velocity vector (vx,vy) will be ( 0 m/s , -1.5 m/s)

Question: Is a flame matter? . Claim: (Write a statement that answers the question)

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. The flame itself is a mixture of gases (vaporized fuel, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, water vapor, and many other things) and so is matter. The light produced by the flame is energy, not matter.

PLSS HELP!!! THIS IS URGENT

Fed [463]

Answer:

D. Sand carried by rivers flows over and weathers the rocks.

Explanation:

The sand in the river is move because of the flow of the river and as the sand moves it grinds on the rocks in the river. This starts a process know as abrasion, in other words it means that it wheathers(grinds) against the rocks.

An amount of work W is done on an object of mass m initially at rest, and as result it winds up moving at speed v. Suppose inste

sesenic [268]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

W amount of work is done on the system such that it acquires v velocity after operation(initial velocity)

According to work energy theorem work done by all the forces is equal to change in kinetic energy of object

$W=\frac{1}{2}mv^2---1$
