Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
1. Speed is calculated as the ratio of distance and time. Hence, Jame's speed can be calculated as:
400/5 km/hr = 80 km/hr
The unit for the speed would be km/hr. This can also be converted to m/s:
80 km = 80,000 m
1 hr = 3,600 s
80 km/hr = 80,000/3600 m/s = 22.22 m/s
2. Since James drove 400 km in 5 hours, the distance he drove is 400 km.
3. The time it took for James to get there is 5 hours.
Answer:
The minimum total speed is 11.2km/s
Explanation:
We are been asked to find the escape velocity.
Escape velocity is defined as the minimum initial velocity that will take a body(projectile)away above the surface of a planet(earth) when it's projected vertically upwards.
The formula to calculate the escape velocity is Ve = √2gR
For the earth g = 9.8m/s2 , R = 6.4*10^6
Substituting into the equation Ve = √2*9.8*6.4*10^6 = 11.2*10^3m/s
=11.2km/s
After traveling for 6.0 seconds, a runner reaches 10m/s. What is the runner's acceleration? Answer: 1.67 m/s2
