You drive on Interstate 10 from San Antonio to Houston, half the time at 75 km/h and the other half at 106 km/h. On the way back

you travel half the distance at 75 km/h and the other half at 106 km/h. What is your average speed (a) from San Antonio to Houston, (b) from Houston back to San Antonio, and (c) for the entire trip

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) from San Antonio to Houston let distance be d km .

Average speed = total distance / total time

time = distance / speed

Total time = (d / 2 x 75 ) +( d / 2 x 106 )

= .0067 d + .0047 d

= .0114 d

Average speed  = d / .0114 d = 87.72 km /h

b ) from Houston back to San Antonio

Total time = (d / 2 x 106 ) +( d / 2 x 75 )

= .0047 d + .0067 d

= .0114 d

Average speed  = d / .0114 d = 87.72 km /h

c )

For entire trip :

total distance = 2d

total time = 2 x .0114 d

Average speed  = 2 d / 2 x .0114 d

= 87.72 km /h .

[1] The assembly starts from rest and reaches an angular speed of 150 rev/min under the action of a 20-N force T applied to the
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

t = 5.89 s

Explanation:

To calculate the time, we need the radius of the pulley and the radius of the sphere which was not given in the question.

Let us assume that the radius of the pulley (r_p) = 0.4 m

Let the radius of the sphere (r) = 0.5 m

w = angular speed = 150 rev/min = (150 × 2π / 60) rad/s = 15.708 rad/s

Tension (T) = 20 N

mass (m) = 3 kg each

\int\limits^0_t {Tr_p} \, dt=H_2-H_1\\( Tr_p)t=4rm(rw)\\( Tr_p)t=4r^2mw

t = \frac{4r^2mw}{Tr_P}

Substituting values:

t = \frac{4r^2mw}{Tr_P}= \frac{4*(0.5)^2*3*15.708}{20*0.4}=5.89s

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
vitfil [10]

Answer:

a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg

Explanation:

since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .

44 = m * 9.81m/s^2

m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg

b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)

44 = m (a +g)

44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)

44/11.18 = m

m = 3.94 kg
