Answer:
<em>The tourist's average speed was 80 mph</em>
Explanation:
<u>Average Speed
</u>
If an object travels a distance d in a time t regardless of the direction, the average speed is the quotient of the distance over the time:
The tourist leaves Pittsburgh and travels 60 miles South in 45 minutes. Then he heads West and travels 100 miles in 1 hour and 15 minutes.
The total distance traveled is:
d = 60 miles + 100 miles = 160 miles
The total time is:
t = 45 minutes + 1 hour + 15 minutes = 2 hours
The average speed is:
v = 80 mph
The tourist's average speed was 80 mph
Answer:
Q = 142.324kJ
Explanation:
Data:
M = 500g = 0.5kg
T1 = 10°C = (10 + 273.15)K = 285.15K
T2 = 80°C = (80 + 273.15)K = 353.15K
Q = ?
C = 4186J/kg.K
Q = mc(T2 - T1)
Q = 0.5 * 4186 * (353.15 - 285.15)
Q = 0.5 * 4186 * 68
Q = 142324J
Q = 142.324kJ.
The sun's radiation is made up of rays of many different wavelengths.
The equivalent resistance when two resistors are connected in series is
the sum of their individual resistances.
The marking on the resistor that says "1000 W" is the rating that tells
how much power the resistor can safely dissipate, without overheating
or exploding. (The 'W' stands for 'Watts'.) It doesn't tell us anything about
their individual resistances. So we don't have enough information to calculate
their series equivalent.
Answer:The atmosphere directly absorbs about 23% of incoming sunlight, and the remaining energy is transferred from the Earth's surface by evaporation (25%), convection (5%), and thermal infrared radiation (a net of 5-6%).Jan
