The average speed is determined by the following formula:
average speed = [sum of (speed * time for which that speed was traveled)] / total time
average speed = [(83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60] / [(26 + 52 + 45 + 15) / 60]
*note: The division by 60 is to convert minutes to hours. We see that the 60 cancels from the top and bottom of the division
average speed = 50.65 km/hr
The total distance traveled is equivalent to the numerator of the fraction we used in the first part. This is:
Distance = (83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60
Distance = 116.5 kilometers
Answer:
0 N, 3.49 m/s
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram for the bucket at the top of the swing. There are two forces acting on the bucket: weight and tension, both downwards.
If we take the sum of the forces in the radial direction, where towards the center is positive:
∑F = ma
W + T = m v² / r
The higher the velocity that Rony swings the bucket, the more tension there will be. The slowest he can swing it is when the tension is 0.
W = m v² / r
mg = m v² / r
g = v² / r
v = √(gr)
Given that r = 1.24 m:
v = √(9.8 m/s² × 1.24 m)
v = 3.49 m/s
