What constant acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 20 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 3 seconds

Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity

a = (51 - 20) / 3 = 10⅓ mi/hr/s

which should probably be converted to standard units.

10⅓ mi/hr/s(5280 ft/mi) / 3600 s/hr) = 15.15555... ≈ 15.2 ft/s²

which is roughly half the acceleration of gravity.

Two violinists are trying to play in tune. However, whenever they play their A string at the same time they hear a beat frequenc

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The possible frequencies for the A string of the other violinist is 457 Hz and 467 Hz.

(3) and (4) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Beat frequency f = 5.0 Hz

Frequency f'= 462 Hz

We need to calculate the possible frequencies for the A string of the other violinist

Using formula of frequency

$f'=f_{1}-f$ ...(I)

$f'=f_{1}+f$ ...(II)

Where, f= beat frequency

f₁ = frequency

Put the value in both equations

$f'=462-5=457\ Hz$

$f'=462+5=467\ Hz$

Hence, The possible frequencies for the A string of the other violinist is 467 Hz and 457 Hz.

A sample of oxygen gas at 25.0Â°c has its pressure tripled while its volume is halved. What is the final temperature of the gas?

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

447 K

Explanation:

25 C = 25 + 273 = 298 K

Assuming ideal gas, we can apply the ideal gas law

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

$T_2 = T_1\frac{P_2}{P_1}\frac{V_2}{V_1}$

Since pressure is tripled, then $P_2 / P_1 = 3$ . Volume is halved, then $V_2 / V_1 = 0.5$

$T_2 = 298*3*0.5 = 447 K$

Mike walks 200 km in 6 hours.he then walks another 100km in 4 hours .what is his average speed?

kolbaska11 [484]

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance covered in total given time

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

here we know that total distance that man moved is

$d_1 = 200 km$

$d_2 = 100 km$

so total distance is

$d = d_1 + d_2$

$d = 200 km + 100 km$

$d = 300 km$

now here total time of the motion is

$t_1 = 6 hours$

$t_2 = 4 hours$

total time will be given as

$t = t_1 + t_2$

$t = 6 + 4 = 10 hours$

now by above formula

$v_{avg} = \frac{300}{10}$

$v_{avg} = 30 km/h$

so his average speed is 30 km/h
