Carl went on a Euro Trip and was traveling from Spain to Russia. When he looked on the map it said Russia was 7035 km away from

Spain. If it took Carl 7 hours to get there, what would his average speed be in meters per second?

Answer:

The average speed would be 279.167 meters per second.

Explanation:

Speed ​​is the magnitude that expresses the variation in position of an object and as a function of time. In other words, speed is defined as the relationship established between the distance traveled and the time elapsed in the movement of a mobile.

Speed can be calculated using the following expression:

Speed=\frac{distance}{time}

In this case:

  • distance= 7,035 km
  • time= 7 hours

Since the required unit of speed is meter per second, then you convert from km to meters for the case of distance, and from hours to seconds for the case of time. So:

  • distance= 7,035 km= 7,035,000 m (being 1 km= 1,000 m)
  • time= 7 hours= 420 minutes= 25,200 seconds (being 1 hour=60 minutes and 1 minute=60 seconds)

Replacing in the definition of speed:

Speed=\frac{7,035,000 meters}{25,200 seconds}

Solving:

Speed=279.167\frac{meters}{ seconds}

Then, <u><em>the average speed would be 279.167 meters per second.</em></u>

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity at Pluto is 0.0597 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Length, L = 1 m

10 oscillations in 257 seconds

Time period, T = 257/10 = 25.7 s

Let the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Use the formula of time period of simple pendulum

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\\25.7 = 2 \times 31.4\sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\\\\g = 0.0597 m/s^2

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A general wave function is given by:

f(x,t)=Acos(kx-\omega t)

A: amplitude of the wave = 0.075m

k: wave number

w: angular frequency

a) You use the following expressions for the calculation of k, w, T and λ:

\omega = 2\pi f=2\pi (2.00Hz)=12.56\frac{rad}{s}

k=\frac{\omega}{v}=\frac{12.56\frac{rad}{s}}{12.0\frac{m}{s}}=1.047\ m^{-1}

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{2.00Hz}=0.5s\\\\\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}=\frac{2\pi}{1.047m^{-1}}=6m

b) Hence, the wave function is:

f(x,t)=0.075m\ cos((1.047m^{-1})x-(12.56\frac{rad}{s})t)

c) for x=3m you have:

f(3,t)=0.075cos(1.047*3-12.56t)

d) the speed of the medium:

\frac{df}{dt}=\omega Acos(kx-\omega t)\\\\\frac{df}{dt}=(12.56)(1.047)cos(1.047x-12.56t)

you can see the velocity of the medium for example for x = 0:

v=\frac{df}{dt}=13.15cos(12.56t)

An engine flywheel initially rotates counterclockwise at 5.03 rotations/s. Then, during 23.5 s, its rotation rate changes to 2.6
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

the flywheel's average angular acceleration is -2.05 rad/s²

Explanation:

<u>Note:</u> counterclockwise is positive

         clockwise is negative

Given;

initial angular velocity, \omega _i = 5.03 rev/s = 5.03\frac{rev}{s} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = 31.61 \ rad/s

final angular velocity, \omega_f= -2.63 rev/s = -2.63 \ \frac{rev}{s} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} = -16.53 \ rad/s

duration of the flywheel rotation, Δt = 23.5 s

The average acceleration of the flywheel is calculated as;

a_r = \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} = \frac{\omega_f  - \omega _i}{t_2-t_1} = \frac{-16.53 \ - \ 31.61}{23.5} = -2.05 \ rad/s^2

Therefore, the flywheel's average angular acceleration is -2.05 rad/s²
