Moustapha jones drives east at 100km/hr for 3 hours then back west at 80km/hr for 1.5 hours. which pair of answers gives his ave
olya-2409 [2.1K]

The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

The total distance cover in east direction is=100*3=300 km

The total distance cover in the west direction=80*1.5=120 km

The total distance covered is =300+120=420 km

And Total displacement of the car is =300-120=180 km

As we know that the average speed is given as

Avg Speed =Total Distance / Total time

=420/4.5=93.33 km/hr

As we know that the average velocity is given as

Avg Speed =Total Displacement/ Total time

=180/4.5=40 km/hr

Therefore, The average speed of the car is 93.33 km/hr and the average velocity of the car is 40 km/hr.

A proton is 0.9 meters away from a 1.4 C charge. What is the magnitude of the electric force between the proton and the charge
Digiron [165]

Answer:

F = 2.49 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged bodies is given by Colomb's Law:

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\

where,

F = Electrostatic Force = ?

k = colomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q₁ = charge on proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

q₂ = second charge = 1.4 C

r = distace between charges = 0.9 m

Therefore,

F = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^9\ N.m^2/C^2)(1.6\ x\ 10^{-19}\ C)(1.4\ C)}{(0.9\ m)^2}

<u>F = 2.49 x 10⁻⁹ N</u>

How do motors use energy? Do they convert electrical energy into mechanical energy OR mechanical energy into electrical energy?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Motors convert electrical energy into mechanical energy

Explanation:

A motor uses electrical energy to create mechanical energy by creating magnetic fields causing the motor to spin. A generator is the opposite and converts mechanical into electrical by spinning a motor in a magnetic field.
