A car travels for 50mph for 5 hours, then for 30mph for another 3 hours in the same direction. What is the average speed the mot

Answer:

42.5mph

Explanation:

The computation of the average speed is shown below:

As we know that

Speed = Distance ÷ Time

ANd, distance = Speed × time

So, the distance would be

= (50 × 5 hours) + (30 × 3)

= 250 + 90

= 340 miles

And, the total time taken is 8 hours

So, the average speed is

= 340 miles ÷ 8 hours

= 42.5mph

A water pipe tapers down from an initial radius of R1 = 0.21 m to a final radius of R2 = 0.11 m. The water flows at a velocity v
Aleks [24]

Answer:

0.116 m^3/s

Explanation:

The volume flow rate of a fluid in a pipe is given by:

Q=Av

where

A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe

v is the speed of the fluid

In this problem, at the initial point we have

v = 0.84 m/s is the speed of the water

r = 0.21 m is the radius of the pipe, so the cross-sectional area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.21 m)^2 =0.138 m^2

So, the volume flow rate is

Q=(0.138 m^2)(0.84 m/s)=0.116 m^3/s

Two parallel wires are separated by 6.10 cm, each carrying 2.85 A of current in the same direction. (a) What is the magnitude of
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The force per unit length is 2.66 \times 10^{-5} \ N/m

Explanation:

The current carrying by each wires = 2.85 A

The current in both wires flows in same direction.

The gap between the wires = 6.10 cm

Now we will use the below expression for the force per unit length. Moreover, before using the below formula we have to change the unit centimetre into meter. So, we just divide the centimetre with 100.

F/l = \frac{\mu _0i_1 i_2}{2\pi d} \\i_1 = 2.85 \\i_ 2 = 2.85  \\\mu _0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \\d = 0.061 \\F/l = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 2.85 \times 2.85}{2 \pi \times 0.061} \\= 2.66 \times 10^{-5} \ N/m

What is the highest pHoney bees beat their wings, making a buzzing sound at a frequency of 2.3 × 102 hertz. What is the period o
VMariaS [17]

The period of the wave is 4.35 ms. The sound waves are called longitudinal waves

Explanation:

The period of a wave is related to its frequency by the equation:

T=\frac{1}{f}

where

T is the period

f is the frequency

For the bee in this problem, the frequency of the sound wave emitted by it is

f=2.3 \cdot 10^2 Hz = 230 Hz

Therefore, the period of the sound wave is

T=\frac{1}{230}=4.35\cdot 10^{-3}s = 4.35 ms

The sound wave is a type of wave called longitudinal wave. In longitudinal waves, the oscillation of the medium occurs in a direction parallel to the direction of motion of the wave: therefore in a sound wave, the particle of the medium (air, in this case) oscillate back and forth along the direction of propagation of the wave, forming alternating areas of higher density of particles (called compressions) and of lower density of particle (called rarefactions).

The other type of wave, instead, is called transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the oscillation of the wave occurs in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. An example of transverse waves are the electromagnetic waves, which consists of electric field and magnetic fields that vibrate in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave itself.
