Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.
1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.
For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.
P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.
Ok, this is a 2d kinematics problem, the falls 14 m part is confusing, I think it means in the x direction, but you don't need it anyway.
If we know it goes 4m into the air, we know d = 4m (height of wall), we also know the acceleration a=-9.8m/s^2 (because gravity) and that the vertical velocity when it just clears the wall will be 0 m/s, which we'll call our final velocity (Vf). Using Vf^2 = Vi^2 +2a*d, we can solve this for Vi and drop Vf because it's zero to get: Vi = sqrt(-2ad), plug in numbers (don't forget a is negative) and you get 8.85 m/s in the vertical direction. The x-direction velocity requires that we solve the y-direction for time, using Vf= Vi + at, we solve for t, getting t= -Vi/a, plug in numbers t= -8.85/-9.8 = 0.9 s. Now we can use the simple v = d/t (because x-direction has no acceleration (a=0)), and plug in the distance to the wall and the time it takes to get there v = (4/.9) = 4.444 m/s, this is the velocity in the x direction, we use Pythagoras' theorem to find the total velocity, Vtotal = sqrt(Vx^2 + Vy^2), so Vtotal = sqrt(8.85^2+4.444^2) = 9.9m/s. Yay physics!
Answer:
11.5
Explanation:
you do 12(sin 73.3) because its on the y you do sin
