as you take a short canoe trip on the Brazos River you paddle your canoe 200 miles up the river in 420 seconds and then turn aro

und and paddle 350 miles down the river in 280 seconds what was your average speed during your canoe trip in miles per second

200 miles/420 secs = 10/21
350 mile/280 secs = 5/4

(5/4+10/21)/2= 145/168 miles per sec
or .86 miles/sec

4. A 1200 kg car traveling North at 20.0 m/s collides with a 1400 kg car traveling South at 22.0 m/s. The two

Dvinal [7]

Answer:-2.61 m/s

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle, which establishes that the initial momentum $p_{o}$ must be equal to the final momentum $p_{f}$ :

$p_{o}=p_{f}$ (1)

Where:

$p_{o}=mV_{o}+MU_{o}$ (2)

$p_{f}=(m+M)V_{f}$ (3)

$m=1200 kg$ is the mass of the first car

$V_{o}=20 m/s$ is the velocity of the first car, to the North

$M=1400 kg$ is the mass of the second car

$U_{o}=-22 m/s$ is the mass of the second car, to the South

$V_{f}$ is the final velocity of both cars after the collision

$mV_{o}+MU_{o}=(m+M)V_{f}$ (4)

Isolating $V_{f}$ :

$V_{f}=\frac{mV_{o}+MU_{o}}{m+M}$ (5)

$V_{f}=\frac{(1200 kg)(20 m/s)+(1400 kg)(-22 m/s)}{1200 kg+1400 kg}$ (6)

Finally:

$V_{f}=-2.61 m/s$ (7) This is the resulting velocity of the wreckage, to the south

The a992 steel rod bc has a diameter of 50 mm and is used as a strut to support the beam. determine the maximum intensity w of t

EastWind [94]

Answer:

w = 11.211 KN/m

Explanation:

Given:

diameter, d = 50 mm

F.S = 2

L = 3

Due to symmetry, we have:

$Ay = By = \frac{w * 6}{2} = 3w$

$P_c_r = 3w * F.S = 3w * 2.0 = 6w$

$I = \frac{\pi}{64} (0.05)^4 = 3.067*10^-^7$

To find the maximum intensity, w, let's take the Pcr formula, we have:

$P_c_r = \frac{\pi^2 E I}{(KL)^2}$

Let's take k = 1

$E = 200*10^9$

Substituting figures, we have:

$6w = \frac{\pi^2 * 200*10^9 * 3.067*10^-^7}{(1 * 3)^2}$

Solving for w, we have:

$w = \frac{67266.84}{6}$

w = 11211.14 N/m = 11.211 KN/m

Since Area, A= pi * (0.05)²

$\sigma _c_r = \frac{w}{A}$

$\sigma _c_r = \frac{11.211}{\pi (0.05)^2} = 1.4 MPA < \sigma y$ . This means it is safe

The maximum intensity w = 11.211KN/m
