Answer

A. T. Q

Total distance travelled by total time taken

<em><u>speed = Total distance / Total timeAverag</u></em><em><u>e</u></em>

Here Total distance travelled is 20 + 40 = 60 km by the car

total time taken is 1 + 3 = 4 hours

here the average speed of the car is given by

S=60/4=15km/hr

this is answer by the question

First speed = 20km/h

Time = 3 hours

Distance = 3×20

Second speed = 30km/h

Time = 4 hours

Distance = 4×30

Total distance = 60+120 = <u>180km</u>

Total time = 3+4 =<u> 7 hours</u>

Average speed = 180/7

Hope this will help...

A 5.75 mm high firefly sits on the axis of, and 11.3 cm in front of, the thin lens A, whose focal length is 5.77 cm . Behind len

weeeeeb [17]

Answer

given,

focal length of lens A = 5.77 cm

focal length of lens B= 27.9 cm

flies distance from mirror = 11.3 m

now,

Using lens formula

$\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{p} + \dfrac{1}{q}$

$\dfrac{1}{5.77} = \dfrac{1}{11.3} + \dfrac{1}{q}$

q =11.79 cm

image of lens A is object of lens B

distance of lens = 59.9 - 11.79 = 48.11

now, Again applying lens formula

$\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{p} + \dfrac{1}{q'}$

$\dfrac{1}{27.9} = \dfrac{1}{48.11} + \dfrac{1}{q'}$

q' =66.41 cm

hence, the image distance from the second lens is equal to q' =66.41 cm

a basketball player can leap upward .65m how long does the basketball player remain in the air use 9.81m/s²

tigry1 [53]

At the player's maximum height, their velocity is 0. Recall that

${v_f}^2-{v_i}^2=2a\Delta y$

which tells us the player's initial velocity $v_i$ is

$0^2-{v_i}^2=-2g(0.65\,\mathrm m)\implies v_i=3.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}$

The player's height at time $t$ is given by

$y=v_it-\dfrac g2t^2$

so we find their airtime to be

$0.65\,\mathrm m=\left(3.6\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)t-\dfrac g2t^2\implies t=0.36\,\mathrm s$

21. A toy car starts from rest and begins to

Bond [772]

Answer:

v = 66 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of a car, u = 0

Acceleration of the car, a = 11 m/s²

We need to find the final velocity of the toy after 6 seconds.

Let v is the final velocity. It can be calculated using first equation of motion. It is given by :

v = u +at

v = 0 + 11 m/s² × 6 s

v = 66 m/s

So, the final velocity of the car is 66 m/s.

What is the change in internal energy of the system (∆U) in a process in which 10 kJ of heat energy is absorbed by the system an

Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to first law of thermodynamics:

∆U= q + w

= 10kj+(-70kJ)

-60kJ

, w = + 70 kJ

(work done on the system is positive)

q = -10kJ ( heat is given out, so negative)

∆U = -10 + (+70) = +60 kJ

Thus, the internal energy of the system decreases by 60 kJ.
