The speed is 80 m/h you find it by dividing the distance by time
Neporo4naja [7]2 years ago

What you need is a definition of average speed.  Here it is:

     Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

For the race car in the question:

            Average speed = (200 mile) / (2.5 hour)

                                     = (200 / 2.5)  (mile/hour)

                                     =        80  miles per hour .

That doesn't seem all that fast for a race-car.
But the math is bullet-proof.

How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16
Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by  ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by    ( 1 / √16 )  =  ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to  1/4  of what it is now.

If Juan upgrades from a sports car to a large truck, what will happen to the
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The force must increase

Explanation:

According to newton's second law "force is the product of mass and acceleration".

      Force  = mass  x acceleration

Now, the mass of the sports car is lesser compared to that of the truck. Therefore, to take both automobiles to the same speed, enough force must be applied by the engine of the truck.

There must be an increase in the force in order to make both automobiles attain the same speed.

In the Biomedical and Physical Sciences building at MSU there are 135 steps from the ground floor to the sixth floor. Each step
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

W = 16.5 Kj

P = 49.9 Watt

E = 16471

Explanation:

m = 73.5kg

t = 5min 30sec = (5×60) + 30 = 330sec

each step = 16.6cm = 0.166m

h = 135×0.166 = 22.41 m

g = 10 m/s²

(i) W = F × s = W × h = mgh

W = 73.5×10×22.41 = 16471.35

W = 16.5 Kj

(ii) Power = workdone/time

P = 16471.35/330

P = 49.9 Watt

(iii) The energy burnt in this process = 16471
