Answer:

the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 70 mph

time of motion, t₁ = 3 hours

final speed, v = 20 mph

time of motion, t₂ = 2 hours

The average speed of the car is calculated as;

v' = \frac{70(3) - 20(2)}{3-2} \\\\v' = 170 \ mph

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

Can you tell from the coefficient of restitution whether a collision has added kinetic energy to a system, taken some away, or l
Maurinko [17]
For an inelastic collision where coefficient of restitution,e, is equal to 0, the momentum is conserved but not the kinetic energy. So, there is addition or elimination of kinetic energy.

On the otherhand, when e = 1, like for an elastic collision, kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Thus, the system's kinetic energy is unchanged.

You have designed a machine that requires 1000 J of work from a motor for every 800 J of useful work done by the machine. What i
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

80%

Explanation:

efficiency =   \frac{useful \: work \: done}{total \: energy \: input}

800 / 1000 = 0.8

Efficiency = 0.8 *100 = 80%

A potential difference of 3.00 nV is set up across a 2.00 cm length of copper wire that has a radius of 2.00 mm. How much charge
Anvisha [2.4K]

The number of charge drifts are 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Potential difference, V = 3 nV = 3 X 10⁻⁹m

Length of wire, L = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Radius of the wire, r = 2 mm = 2 X 10⁻³m

Cross section, 3 ms

charge drifts, q = ?

We know,

the charge drifts through the copper wire is given by

q = iΔt

where Δt = 3 X 10⁻³s

and i = \frac{V}{R}

where R is the resistance

R = \frac{pL}{r^{2} \pi }

ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire = 1.69 X 10⁻⁸Ωm

So, i = \frac{\pi(r)^{2}V  }{pL}

q = \frac{\pi(r^{2} )Vt }{pL}

Substituting the values,

q = 3.14 X (0.02)² X 3 X 10⁻⁹ X 3 X 10⁻³ / 1.69 X 10⁻⁸ X 0.02

q = 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

Therefore, the number of charge drifts are 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

Grizzly bears are known to run really fast. What is the momentum of a grizzly bear (about 420 pounds) running at 17 m/s ?
labwork [276]

Answer:

A. Momentum of the grizzly bear is 3241.56 Kgm/s

B. The human will run at 28.56 m/s

Explanation:

A. Determination of the momentum of the grizzly bear.

Mass of grizzly bear = 420 lb

Velocity of grizzly bear = 17 m/s

momentum of the grizzly bear =?

Next, we shall convert 420 lb to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1 lb = 0.454 kg

Therefore,

420 lb = 420 lb × 0.454 Kg / 1 lb

420 lb = 190.68 Kg

Thus, 420 lb is equivalent to 190.68 Kg

Finally, we shall determine the momentum of the grizzly bear as follow:

Mass of grizzly bear = 190.68 Kg

Velocity of grizzly bear = 17 m/s

momentum of the grizzly bear =?

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 190.68 × 17

Momentum = 3241.56 Kgm/s

Thus, the momentum of the grizzly bear is 3241.56 Kgm/s

B. Determination of how fast the human will run.

Mass of human = 250 lb

Momentum of human = momentum of the grizzly bear

Momentum of the grizzly bear is 3241.56 Kgm/s

Momentum of human = 3241.56 Kgm/s

Velocity of human =?

Next, we shall convert 250 lb to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1 lb = 0.454 kg

Therefore,

250 lb = 250 lb × 0.454 Kg / 1 lb

250 lb = 113.5 Kg

Thus, 250 lb is equivalent to 113.5 Kg

Finally, we shall determine how fast the human will run as follow:

Mass of human = 113.5 Kg

Momentum of human = 3241.56 Kgm/s

Velocity of human =?

Momentum = mass × velocity

3241.56 = 113.5 × velocity

Divide both side by 113.5

Velocity = 3241.56 / 113.5

Velocity = 28.56 m/s

Therefore, the human will run at 28.56 m/s to match the momentum of the grizzly bear
