Answer:

<em>The total distance of the entire trip is 16 Km</em>

Explanation:

<u>Distance and Displacement</u>

A moving object constantly travels for some distance at certain periods of time. The total distance is the sum of each individual distance the object traveled. It can be written as:

dtotal = d1 + d2 + d3 + ... + dn

This sum is obtained independently of the direction the object moves.

The displacement only takes into consideration the initial and final positions of the path defined by the object in its moving. The displacement, unlike distance, is a vectorial magnitude and can be even zero if the object starts and ends the movement at the same point.

The described movements are 6 Km North and 10 Km West. Regardless of the speed or time taken, the total distance is:

d = 6 Km + 10 Km = 16 Km

The total distance of the entire trip is 16 Km

A football punter accelerates a .55 kg football
Ronch [10]

Answer:

17.6 N

Explanation:

The force exerted by the punter on the football is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the football:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum of the football

\Delta t=0.25 s is the time elapsed

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m = 0.55 kg is the mass of the football

u = 0 is the initial  velocity (the ball starts from rest)

v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity

Combining the two equations and substituting the values, we  find the force exerted on the ball:

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(0.55)(8.0-0)}{0.25}=17.6 N

John weighs 200 pounds.
In order to lift himself up to a higher place, he has to exert force of 200 lbs.

The stairs to the balcony are 20-ft high.
In order to lift himself to the balcony, John has to do
(20 ft) x (200 pounds)  =  4,000 foot-pounds of work.

If he does it in 6.2 seconds, his RATE of doing work is
(4,000 foot-pounds) / (6.2 seconds)  =  645.2 foot-pounds per second.

The rate of doing work is called "power".

(If we were working in the metric system (with SI units),
the force would be in "newtons", the distance would be in "meters",
1 newton-meter of work would be 1 "joule" of work, and
1 joule of work per second would be 1 "watt".
Too bad we're not working with metric units.)

So back to our problem.

John has to do 4,000 foot-pounds of work to lift himself up to the balcony,
and he's able to do it at the rate of 645.2 foot-pounds per second.

Well, 550 foot-pounds per second is called 1 "horsepower".

So as John runs up the steps to the balcony, he's doing the work
at the rate of

           (645.2 foot-pounds/second) / (550 ft-lbs/sec per HP)

=  1.173 Horsepower.  GO JOHN !

(I'll betcha he needs a shower after he does THAT 3 times.)
_______________________________________________

Oh my gosh !  Look at #26 !  There are the metric units I was talking about.

Do you need #26 ?

I'll give you the answers, but I won't go through the explanation,
because I'm doing all this for only 5 points.

a).  5
b).  750 Joules
c).  800 Joules
d).  93.75%

You're welcome.

And #27 is 0.667 m/s .

Answer:

1.97×10⁻²¹ J

Explanation:

Use ideal gas law to find temperature.

PV = nRT

(9 atm) (9 L) = (83.3 mol) (0.0821 L·atm/mol/K) T

T = 11.9 K

The average kinetic energy per atom is:

KE = 3/2 kT

KE = 3/2 (1.38×10⁻²³ J/K) (11.9 K)

KE = 2.46×10⁻²² J

For a mass of 5.34×10⁻²⁶ kg, the kinetic energy is:

KE = (5.34×10⁻²⁶ kg) (1 mol / 0.004 kg) (6.02×10²³ atom/mol) (2.46×10⁻²² J)

KE = 1.97×10⁻²¹ J
