Total distance = 10 km + 10 km = 20 km

1 km = 1000 m

20km x 1000 = 20,000 m

Total time = 20 min. + 30 min. = 50 minutes

Average speed = Distance / time

Average speed = 20,000/50 min

Average speed = 400 m/s

A woman walked 115 m. As she did so, her speed increased from 4.20 m/s to 5.00 m/s. How long did it take her to walk this distan

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

25 seconds

Explanation:

Assuming the woman is accelerating at a constant rate of $a \;\;m/s^2$ from the initial velocity, u=4.20 m/s, to the final velocity, v=5.00 m/s.

Let she takes t seconds to cover the distance, s=115 m.

As acceleration, $a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{5-4.2}{t}$

$\Rightarrow at=0.8\cdots(i)$

Now, from the equation of motion

$s=ut+\frac 12 at^2$

$\Rightarrow s=ut+\frac 12 at(t)$

$\Rightarrow 115=4.2t+\frac 12 \times 0.8 t$ [ from equation (i)]

$\Rightarrow 115=(4.2+0.4)t$

$\Rightarrow t= 115/4.6 = 25$ seconds.

Hence, she takes 25 seconds to walk the distance.

After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 26 people including the driver, with an average

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

0.44807175m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = $4\times 10^{4}\ N/m$ (Assumed, as it is not given)

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Total mass is

$m=26\times 67+3\times 15+5\times 3+25\\\Rightarrow m=1827\ kg$

The total weight will balance the spring force

$mg=kx\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{mg}{k}\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{1827\times 9.81}{4\times 10^{4}}\\\Rightarrow x=0.44807175\ m$

The springs are compressed by 0.44807175m
