A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pairs of cities. She drives for 10.0 min

at 75.0 km/h, 6.0 min at 95.0 km/h, and 45.0 min at 40.0 km/h and spends 40.0 min eating lunch and buying gas.(a) Determine the average speed for the trip.
(b) Determine the distance between the initial and final cities along the route.

Answer:

a)  v = 0.515 km / min ,   b)  x_total = 52 km

Explanation:

The measured speed is defined by the distance traveled between the time

         v = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

In this case they give us the speed in several time intervals

let's find the distance traveled in each interval

a) Goes at 75 km/h for 10 min

        v = \frac{x}{t}x / t

         x₁ = v t

let's reduce speed to km / min

         v₁ = 75 km / h (1h / 60 min) = 1.25 km / min

the distance traveled in this time is

        x₁ = 1.25 10

        x₁ = 12.5 km

b) goes to v = 95 km / h for 6 min

        v = 95 km / h (1h 60 min) = 1.5833 km / min

the distance traveled is

        x₂ = v₂2 t

        x₂ = 1.58333 6

        x₂ = 9.5 km

c) goes to v = 40 km / h for 45.0 min

         v₃ = 40 km / h (1 h / 60min) = 0.6667 km / min

         x₃ = 0.6667 45

         x₃ = 30 km

d) t = 40 min, stopped

         x₄ = 0

A) let's calculate the average speed of the trip

          v =\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}+x_{3}+x_{4}   }{t_{1}+t_{2}+t_{3}+t_{4} }

          v = (12.5 +9.5 +30 +0) / (10 +6 +45 +40)

          v = 52/101

         v = 0.515 km / min

B) the distance between the two cities is

        x_total = x₁ + x₂ + x₃

        x_total = 12.5 +9.5 + 30

        x_total = 52 km

A 60-kg box is being pushed a distance of 6.2 m across the floor by a force P with arrow whose magnitude is 150 N. The force P w
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of box, m = 60 kg

distance, d = 6.2 m

force, P = 150 N

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.21

work done by the gravitational force, Wg = Force x distance x cos 90

Wg = 0 J

Work done by the normal force, Wn = force x distance x Cos 90

Wn = 0 J

Work done by the friction force, Wf = - μk mg d

Wf = - 0.21 x 60 x 9.8 x 6.2 = - 765.58 J

Work done by the applied force, Wp = P x d

Wp = 150 x 6.2 = 930 J

Why do the compass needles change direction when the electric current is Flowing
zhenek [66]

Explanation:

Since compasses work by pointing along magnetic field lines, this means that there must be a magnetic field near the wire through which the current is flowing.
