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.

Suppose the ring rotates once every 4.30 ss . If a rider's mass is 58.0 kgkg , with how much force does the ring push on her at

Stells [14]

Answer:

422.36 N

Explanation:

given,

time of rotation = 4.30 s

T = 4.30 s

Assuming the diameter of the ring equal to 16 m

radius, R = 8 m

$v = \dfrac{2\pi R}{T}$

$v = \dfrac{2\pi\times 8}{4.30}$

v = 11.69 m/s

now, Force does the ring push on her at the top

$- N - m g = \dfrac{-mv^2}{R}$

$N + m g = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}$

$N = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}- m g$

$N = m(\dfrac{v^2}{R}- g)$

$N = 58\times (\dfrac{11.69^2}{8}- 9.8)$

N = 422.36 N

The force exerted by the ring to push her is equal to 422.36 N.

The distance between two successive peaks on adjacent waves is its

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding consecutive phases of a waveform. It is usually represented by λ in the mathematical expressions.

A continuous propagating wave repeats its wavelength over the distance.

A wave has crest and trough with respect to time and space.

Wave is defined as a disturbance of any parameter repeated in a cyclic manner over the given time.

A train slows from 60m/s to 20m/s in 50s

Dovator [93]

Answer:

a = -4/5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

a = (20 m/s - 60 m/s) / 50 s

a = -40 m/s / 50 s

a = -4/5 m/s^2

hope this helps! <3

From a hot air balloon that is at rest at a certain height, a projectile is launched horizontally at 30m / s, how fast will it h

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

A. 50 m/s

Explanation:

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (10 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 40 m/s

In the x direction, the velocity is constant at 30 m/s.

The overall speed is:

v² = (30 m/s)² + (40 m/s)²

v = 50 m/s
