The average speed can be easily calculated by taking the ratio of distance and time. That is:

average speed = distance / time

 

so calculating:

average speed = 4875 ft / 6.85 minutes

<span>average speed = 711.68 ft / min</span>

<u>Answer</u>:

Speed of the runner is 8.08 miles per hour approximately.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given:

A runner runs =4875 ft

Time Taken = 6.85 minutes.

To Find:  

Average speed of the runner in miles per hour=?

Solution:

Distance = Speed x time

Conveting feet into miles:

=>Distance= 4875\times\frac{1}{5280} miles

=>Distance = 0.9232955 miles

Converting minutes into hours:

time = 6.85 minutes

=> 6.85\times \frac{1}{60}  hours

=> \frac{6.85}{60}= 0.1141667 hours.

Now, we know that, distance = speed x time  

Then, 0.9232955 miles = speed x 0.1141667 hours  

=>speed = \frac{0.9232955}{0.1141667}

=>speed = 8.08725749

A wheel decelerates from 13.5 rad s−1 to 6.0 rad s−1 in 7 s. Calculate the angular displacement​
Igoryamba

Answer:

<em>Angular displacement=68.25 rad</em>

Explanation:

<u>Circular Motion</u>

If the angular speed varies from ωo to ωf in a time t, then the angular acceleration is given by:

\displaystyle \alpha=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_o}{t}

The angular displacement is given by:

\displaystyle \theta=\omega_o.t+\frac{\alpha.t^2}{2}

The wheel decelerates from ωo=13.5 rad/s to ωf=6 rad/s in t=7 s, thus:

\displaystyle \alpha=\frac{6-13.5}{7}

\displaystyle \alpha=\frac{-7.5}{7}

\displaystyle \alpha=-1.071 \ rad/s^2

Thus, the angular displacement is:

\displaystyle \theta=13.5*7+\frac{-1.071*7^2}{2}

\displaystyle \theta=94.5-26.25

\boxed{\displaystyle \theta=68.25\ rad}

Angular displacement=68.25 rad

A box is pulled to the right with a force of 65 N at an angle of 58 degrees to the horizontal. The surface is frictionless. The
Citrus2011 [14]
The free-body diagram is missing, but I assume the only forces acting on the box are the force F pushing the box, the weight of the object and the normal reaction of the surface.

Since the weight and the normal reaction acts in the vertical (y) direction, the only force acting on the box in the horizontal (x) direction is the horizontal component of the force F, which is given by
F_x = F \cos 58^{\circ} = (65 N)(\cos 58^{\circ} )=34.4 N
And so this is the net force in the x-direction.

A mountain climber ascends a mountain to its peak. The peak is 12,470 ft above sea level. The climber then descends 80 ft to mee
o-na [289]
The answer is 12,390 ft.

At first, a climber is at 12,470 <span>ft above sea level. But then, he goes down 80 ft to meet a fellow climber. So, this simply needs to be distracted:
12,470 ft - 80 ft = 12,390 ft
This is the elevation </span>above sea level at which he meet the other climber.
