Answer:

12000 mph

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance read by the odometer = 120,000 miles

Duration of car, t = 10 years

We need to find the average speed of the car. Speed of an object is equal to the total distance covered divided by total time taken. So,

v=\dfrac{120000}{10}\\\\=12000\ mph

So, the average speed of the car is 12000 mph.

. A student claims that if lighting strikes a metal flagpole, the force exerted by the Earth’s magnetic field on the current in
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, current generated from lightning range from

10⁴ A < I < 10^5 A

We know that,

The magnetic force is given as

F = iLB

The magnetic field on the earth surface is

B = 10^-5 T

So, let assume the worst case of a 15m flag pole

L = 15m

Then,

F = iLB

F = 10^5 × 10 × 10^-5

F = 15 N

Therefore, 15N is fairly strong so it will come to the material that was use for the material of the flag pole.

Therefore, it is possible that the student is right depending on the material of the flag pole.

What is the acceleration of a 349 kg object that moved with a force of 750 N?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.15 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

where

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{750}{349}  \\  = 2.14899713...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.15 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

An angry physics student releases a wrecking ball as shown. The wrecking ball is just about to hit the building at the final tim
daser333 [38]

Answer:

the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force)

Explanation

Explanation:For this exercise the student must create an impulse to move the ball towards the building, in this part he performs positive work since the applied force and the displacement are in the same direction.

When the ball moves it has a kinetic energy and if its height increases or decreases its potential energy also changes, but the sum of being must be equal to the initial work.

When the ball arrives and collides with the building, non-conservative forces, of various kinds; rubbing, breaking, etc. It transforms this energy into a part of heat and another in mechanical energy that the building must absorb, let us destroy its wall

Consequently, the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force

When you ride a bicycle at constant speed, nearly all the energy you expend goes into the work you do against the drag force of
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Power output = 96.506 watts

Explanation:

Drag coefficient (Cd) = 0.9

V = 7.3 m/s

Air density (ρ) = 1.225 kg/m^(3)

Area (A) = 0.45 m^2

Let's find the drag force ;

Fd=(1/2)(Cd)(ρ)(A)(v^(2))

So Fd = (1/2)(0.9)(1.225)(0.45)(7.3^(2)) = 13.22N

Drag power = Drag Force x Drag velocity.

Thus drag power, = 13.22 x 7.3 = 96.506 watts

If a range hood removes contaminants at a flow rate of F liters of air per​ second, then the percent P of contaminants that are
podryga [215]

Explanation:

The given value of P is as follows.

           P = 1.06F + 22.18,           10 \leq F \leq 70

or,       P' = 1.06

As p' is defined and non-zero. Hence, only critical points are boundary points.

For F = 10, the value of P will be calculated as follows.

         P = 1.06 \times 10 + 22.18

            = 32.78

For F = 70, the value of P will be calculated as follows.

        P = 1.06 \times 70 + 22.18

           = 96.38

Therefore, the minimum value of P is 32.78 and maximum value of P is 96.38.
