Answer:

\mathrm{b.\:}0.17\:\mathrm{miles/minute}

Explanation:

Average speed is given by S=\frac{d}{t} where d is total distance and t is time.

Plugging in given values, we get:

S=\frac{5\:\mathrm{miles}}{30\:\mathrm{minutes}}=\fbox{$\mathrm{b.\:}0.17\:\mathrm{miles/minute}$}.

Heyy,Can you help me to do this physics problem:
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Average Speed = (Total distance)/(Total Time) = (1800 + 1800)/(30 + 45) = 3600/75 = 48 km/hr. Hence the correct option here is C) 48 km/hr. So to find the average speed never use the formula of the averages but try to find the total distance covered and the total time taken.

Explanation:

It is equals to distance divided time

A 24000- railroad freight car collides with a stationary caboose car. They couple together, and 22 percent of the initial kineti
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

m_{c} = 6768\,kg

Explanation:

According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, the system is modelled as follows:

K_{o} = K_{f} + W_{loss}, where \frac{K_{f}}{K_{o}} = 0.78.

Then,

K_{f} = 0.78\cdot K_{o}

0.5\cdot (m_{f}+m_{c})\cdot v_{f}^{2} = 0.39\cdot m_{f}\cdot v_{o}^{2}

Besides, the Principle of Momentum Conservation describes the following model:

m_{f}\cdot v_{o} = (m_{f}+m_{c})\cdot v_{f}

The final velocity of the system is:

v_{f} = \frac{m_{f}}{m_{f}+m_{c}}\cdot v_{o}

After substituting in the energy expression:

0.5\cdot \frac{m_{f}^{2}}{m_{f}+m_{c}}\cdot v_{o}^{2} = 0.39\cdot m_{f}\cdot v_{o}^{2}

0.5\cdot m_{f} = 0.39\cdot (m_{f}+m_{c})

The mass of the caboose is:

0.39\cdot m_{c} = 0.11\cdot m_{f}

m_{c} = 0.282\cdot m_{f}

m_{c} = 0.282\cdot (24000\,kg)

m_{c} = 6768\,kg

What is the correct definition of a compression?
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The answer that I found is.....

<h3><u><em>Compression. A compression is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are closest together. Rarefaction. A rarefaction is a region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are furthest apart.</em></u></h3>

A small object begins a free-fall from a height of =81.5 m at 0=0 s . After τ=2.20 s , a second small object is launched vertica
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

33.2 m

Explanation:

For the first object:

y₀ = 81.5 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

t₀ = 0 s

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = 81.5 − 4.9t²

For the second object:

y₀ = 0 m

v₀ = 40.0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

t₀ = 2.20 s

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = 40(t−2.2) − 4.9(t−2.2)²

When they meet:

81.5 − 4.9t² = 40(t−2.2) − 4.9(t−2.2)²

81.5 − 4.9t² = 40t − 88 − 4.9 (t² − 4.4t + 4.84)

81.5 − 4.9t² = 40t − 88 − 4.9t² + 21.56t − 23.716

81.5 = 61.56t − 111.716

193.216 = 61.56t

t = 3.139

The position at that time is:

y = 81.5 − 4.9(3.139)²

y = 33.2

Read no.4<br><br> which newtons law is this?<br><br> 1,2 and 3 only
horsena [70]

Explanation:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.
