Answer:

The speed of the cyclist is 2.75 km/min.

Explanation:

Given

The distance d = 88 km

Time t = 32 minutes

To determine

We need to find the speed of a cyclist.

In order to determine the speed of a cyclist, all we need to do is to divide the distance covered by a cyclist by the time taken to cover the distance.

Using the formula involving speed, time, and distance

$s=\frac{d}{t}$

where

s = speed

d = distance covered

t = time taken

substitute d = 88, and t = 32 in the formula

$s=\frac{d}{t}$

$s=\frac{88}{32}$

Cancel the common factor 8

$s=\frac{11}{4}$

$s=2.75$ km/min

Therefore, the speed of the cyclist is 2.75 km/min.

An object is lifted from the surface of a spherical planet to an altitude equal to the radius of the planet.

As a result, the object's mass remains the same, and its weight decreases to 1/4 of whatever it is when the object is on the planet's surface.

Objects with masses of 135 kg and a 435 kg are separated by 0.500 m. Find the net gravitational force exerted by these objects o

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The net gravitational force on the mass is $1.27\times 10^{-5}$

Explanation:

We have by Newton's law of gravity the force of attraction between masses $m_{1},m_{2}$

$F_{att}=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Applying vales we get

Force of attraction between 135 kg mass and 38 kg mass is

$F_{1}=6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{135\times 38}{(0.25)^{2}}\\\\F_{1}=5.47\times 10^{-6}N$

Force of attraction between 435 kg mass and 38 kg mass is

$F_{2}=6.67\times 10^{-11}\frac{435\times 38}{(0.25)^{2}}\\\\F_{2}=1.76\times 10^{-5}N$

Thus the net force on mass 38.0 kg is $F_{2}-F_{1}=1.76\times 10^{-5}-5.47\times 10^{-6}\\\\F_{2}-F_{1}=1.27\times 10^{-5}$

algol13

In Thomson experiment, why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate, because the glowing beam was negatively charged. The glowing beam particles were attracted to the positive plate.

J.JThomson proved that the cathode rays produced a stream of negatively charged particles called electrons.

erica [24]

The first answer in the blank is pours out of you, the second answer in the space provided is diffuse. It is because a person who has an effusive personality will likely pour out his or her emotions while the motor oil will likely diffuse if this has been spilled out of the can.
