Answer: 166.67km/hr
Explanation:
Given the following :
Distance traveled = 250km
Time taken = 1.5 hours
Recall :
Speed = Distance traveled / time taken
Speed = 250 km / 1.5 hours
Speed = 166. 67 km/hr
Speed in m/s:
166.67km/hr = (166.67 × 1000)m / 3600 s
= 166670m / 3600s
= 46.3m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) It is given that Joseph jogs on a straight road of 300m in a time interval of 2 minutes and 30 seconds, which is equal to 150seconds. Therefore, when Joseph jogs from point A to point B, he covers a distance of 300m in time of 150seconds. Hence, his average speed is 300m/150s=2ms^−1. Since it is a straight road and he jogs in a single direction in this case, his displacement is equal to 300m. Since it is a straight road and he jogs in a single direction in this case, his displacement is equal to 300m.
Hence, his average velocity is 300m/150s=2ms^−1
(b) Then it is given that he turns back and points B and jogs on the same road but in the opposite direction for a time interval for 1 minute and covers a distance of 100m.If we consider the whole motion of Joseph, i.e. from point A to point C, then he covers a total distance of 300m+100m=400m. And he covers this total distance in a time interval of 2.5min+1min=3.5min=210s.
Therefore, his average speed for this journey is 400m210s=1.9ms−1.
For the same journey is displacement is equal to the distance between the points A and C,i.e. 300m−100m=200m.
Hence, his average velocity for this case is 200m/210s=0.95ms^−1
Answer:
28.2 m/s
Explanation:
The range of a projectile launched from the ground is given by:
where
v is the initial speed
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity
is the angle at which the projectile is thrown
In this problem we have
d = 81.1 m is the range
is the angle
Solving for v, we find the speed of the projectile:
