What is the speed of a walking person in m/s if the person travels 1000 m in 20 minutes?

Physics
1 answer:
Nata [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

0.83m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

distance  = 1000m

time taken  = 20min

Unknown:

Speed of the walking person  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

    Speed  = \frac{distance}{time taken}

  Time taken should be in seconds;

                 1 min   =  60s

                 20min  = 20 x 60  = 1200s

Speed  = \frac{1000}{1200}   = 0.83m/s

A 5,000 kg truck moving at 8 m/s has the same momentum as a 2,500 kg car. What is the velocity of the car?
rodikova [14]

Answer:

16 m/s.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of truck = 5000 Kg

Velocity of truck = 8 m/s

Mass of car = 2500 kg

Velocity of car =..?

Next, we shall determine the momentum of the truck. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of truck = 5000 Kg

Velocity of truck = 8 m/s

Momentum of truck =.?

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 5000 × 8

Momentum of the truck = 40000 Kg.m/s

Finally, we shall determine the velocity of the car as follow:

From the question given above, we were told that the car and truck has the same momentum.

This implies that:

Momentum of the truck = momentum of car = 40000 Kg.m/s

Thus, the velocity of the car can be obtained as shown below:

Mass of car = 2500 kg

Momentum of the car = 40000 Kg.m/s

Velocity of car =..?

Momentum = mass × velocity

40000 = 2500 × velocity

Divide both side by 2500

Velocity = 40000/2500

Velocity = 16 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the car is 16 m/s.

What effect will the north pole of one magnet have on the north pole of another magnet?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Repulsion

Explanation:

Every magnet has two poles: North and South. Magnets have a property that they attract or repel another magnet and iron-nickel objects. But whether two magnets will attract or repel each other depends on how they are brought together. If unlike poles are brought near the magnets will attract. If like poles are brought near then they will repel each other.

Here north pole of one magnet will repel north pole of another magnet.
