Total distance is 28+12+34=74km=74000m.
Total time is 20+8+25 minutes=53 minutes=53×60=3180 secs.
Average speed is 74000/3180=23.27 m/s.

When an object is falling and reaches a constant velocity, the net force on the object is ____ and the weight of the object is e

Maslowich

When an object is falling and reaches a constant velocity, the net force on the object is <em>zero</em> (it's not accelerating), and the weight of the object is equal to <em>the force of air resistance against the object</em>. (choice-D)

A train starting from rest picks up a speed of 20 m/s in 20 s while travelling on a straight path. It continues to move at the s

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$1300 m$

Explanation:

As the path is straight, so the speed is equivalent to velocity. Now. assuming that the acceleration and deceleration of the train are constant. So, change of velocity with respect to time for acceleration as well as deceleration is constant. Hence, the slope of the speed-time graph is constant for the time of acceleration as well as deceleration. The speed for the time from $20 s$ to $70 s$ is constant, so slope for this interval of time is zero. The speed-time graph is shown in the figure.
