A turtle takes 3.5 minutes to walk 18 m toward the south along a deserted highway. A truck driver stops and picks up the turtle.

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

3.59 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity is defined as:

$\frac{Total displacement}{Total time}$

The turtle first walks 18m south, and then is taken 1,1Km (or 1100m) north. Thus, the total displacement is 1082m north (1100m north - 18m south).

Now we have to calculate the total time, which will be equal to the sum of the time the turtle walked and the time it was taken by truck.

The walking time is 3.5 minutes. Since 1 minute = 60 seconds, then the walking time is 210 seconds.

To calculate the truck time we use the equation:

Time = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

Where the distance the truck travelled is 1100m and the speed of the truck is 12m/s.

Thus,

Truck time= $\frac{1100m}{12m/s}$ = 91.67s

The total time is the sum of the walking time and the truck time.

Total time = 210s + 91.67s = 301.67s.

As mencioned previously, the average velocity is equal to total displacement/ total time, thus:

Average velocity = $\frac{1082m}{301.67s}$ = 3.59 m/s North

Since the average velocity is a vector, it has a magnitude and a direction. In this case the magnitude is 3.59 m/s and the direction is north since the turtle's final displacement is north of where it started.

4. A substance has a density of 0.79 g/cm'. It is soluble in water. List all the possibilities of what it might be How could you

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Given that the density of the unknown substance is 0.79 g/cm3 and is soluble in water, the possible substances it could be are;

i) t-butanol

ii) ethanol

iii) 2-propanol

iv) acetone

However, the actual identity of the unknown substance can be obtained by carrying out a boiling point test. The four substances listed above have different boiling points. Hence the boiling point of the unknown substance ultimately discloses its identity.

A cubical box measuring 1.29 m on each side contains a monatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 2.0 atm How much thermal energy do t

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a) $U = 652.545\,kJ$ , b) $v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

a) According to the First Law of Thermodinamics, the system is not reporting any work, mass or heat interactions. Besides, let consider that such box is rigid and, therefore, heat contained inside is the consequence of internal energy.

$Q = U$

The internal energy for a monoatomic ideal gas is:

$U = \frac{3}{2} \cdot n \cdot R_{u} \cdot T$

Let assume that cubical box contains just one kilomole of monoatomic gas. Then, the temperature is determined from the Equation of State for Ideal Gases:

$T = \frac{P\cdot V}{n\cdot R_{u}}$
