You have two photos of a person walking. One shows the person at the corner of Third and Main streets, the other shows the perso

n at the corner of Tenth and Main streets. There are lampposts at every corner in this town, and the first picture shows it to be 10:32:00 exactly. The second picture shows it to be 10:49:30. You know three facts: (1) All of the clocks are synchronized; (2) there are exactly 12 equal-sized blocks per kilometer in this town; and (3) the streets that cross Main in this area are numbered consecutively, with no interruptions. What is the person’s average speed in kilometers per hour?

Answer:

average speed

= [(10-3)/12 km] / [(49.5-32.0)/60 hour]

= 5*7 / 17.5

= 2 km/h .

choli [55]

Answer:

$490.5\ \text{N/m}$

Explanation:

m = Mass attached to spring = 14 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

x = Displacement of spring = $78-50=28\ \text{cm}$

k = Spring constant

The force balance of the system is given by

$kx=mg\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{mg}{x}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{14\times 9.81}{0.28}\\\Rightarrow k=490.5\ \text{N/m}$

The spring constant for that spring is $490.5\ \text{N/m}$ .

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

$F=18.58\times 10^{-11}\ N$

$\theta=30.276^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of first particle, $m_1=6.7\ kg$

mass of second particle, $m_2=5.1\ kg$

mass of third particle, $m_3=3.7\ kg$

coordinate position of first particle in meters, $(x_1,y_1)\equiv(4.2,0)$

coordinate position of second particle in meters, $(x_2,y_2)\equiv(0,2.8)$

coordinate position of third particle in meters, $(x_3,y_3)\equiv(0,0)$

<u>Now, gravitational force on particle 3 due to particle 1:</u>

$F_{31}=G\frac{m_1.m_3}{r_{31}^2}$

$F_{31}=6.67\times 10^{-11} \times \frac{6.7\times 3.7}{4.2^2}$

$F_{31}=9.37\times 10^{-11}\ N$

towards positive Y axis.

<u>gravitational force on particle 3 due to particle 2:</u>

$F_{32}=G\frac{m_2.m_3}{r_{21}^2}$

$F_{32}=6.67\times 10^{-11} \times \frac{5.1\times 3.7}{2.8^2}$

$F_{32}=16.05\times 10^{-11}\ N$

towards positive X axis.

<u>Now the net force</u>

$F=\sqrt{F_{31}\ ^2+F_{32}\ ^2}$

$F=\sqrt{(10^{-11})^2(9.37^2+16.05^2)}$

$F=18.58\times 10^{-11}\ N$

<em>For angle in counterclockwise direction from the +x-axis</em>

$tan\theta=\frac{9.37\times 10^{-11}}{16.05\times 10^{-11}}$

$\theta=30.276^{\circ}$
