The speed is 80 m/h you find it by dividing the distance by time

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.

In 1935, a French destroyer, La Terrible, attained one of the fastest speeds for any standard warship. Suppose it took 3.0 min a

REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

From newton's equation of motion of uniform acceleration

v = u + at

where v is final velocity , u is initial velocity , a is acceleration and time is t .

putting the values

v = 0 + .5 x 3 x 60 ( time in second = 3 x 60 s )

= 90 m /s

So , final velocity is 90 m /s .

Which list of properties of alternation current is the most likely reason it was chosen over direct current to provide electrici

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

- Direct current is a current in which electrons flow in one direction only

- Alternating current is a current in which the direction of the electron flow reverses periodically - so, half a cycle forward, half a cycle backward

There are several advantages of using alternating currents for the transmission of electricity across a country, over large distances. The main advantages are:

- The voltage of alternating currents can be easily increased/decreased by using transformers. For instance, a transformer is used at the beginning of the transmission line to increase the voltage (electricity is transmitted at high voltage in order to reduce dissipated power), and then another transformer is used before the electricity enters the houses, in order to decrease the voltage. Transformers only work with alternating currents.

- It is easy to interrupt the flow of an alternating current, because its value naturally becomes zero every half a cycle, so this is useful in case the current must be interrupted.

What is know as law of inertia?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

mark me brianliest plz

Explanation:

Law of inertia, also called Newton's first law, postulate in physics that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.
Law of Inertia states that a body in a state of rest or uniform motion remains in the same state until and unless an external force acts on it.
A body continues to be in its state of rest or in uniform motion along a straight line unless an external force is applied on it. This law is also called law of inertia.

You want to make a ride so you do not want to exceed 1.1g’s, if the radius of the turns are 10m, then what is the maximum speed

Citrus2011 [14]

The maximum speed is 10.4 m/s

Explanation:

For a body in uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration is given by:

$a=\frac{v^2}{r}$
