A snail travels 300 cm in 4 minutes.calculate speed of snail in m/s

Physics
1 answer:
LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

\frac{0.0125m}{s}

Explanation:

In order to solve this question we need to know that  speed = \frac{distance}{time}. Then we need to convert 4 minutes into seconds and cm into m. We can do that by multiplying the number of minutes by 60 (because there is 60 seconds in one minute) and dividing the number of cm by 100 (because there is 100 cm in one m). So.......

4min = 4 x 60s = 240s

300cm = 300/100 m = 3m

Now we know that distance = 300m, and that the time = 4min = 240s ⇒

⇒ speed=\frac{distance}{time} = \frac{3m}{240s} = \frac{0.0125m}{s}

A mass m = 1.1 kg hangs at the end of a vertical spring whose top end is fixed to the ceiling. The spring has spring constant k
adell [148]

Answer:

a) = 10.22 rad/s

b) = 0.35 m

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the particle, m = 1.1 kg

Force constant of the spring, k = 115 N/m

Distance at which the mass is released, d = 0.35 m

According to the differential equation of s Simple Harmonic Motion,

ω² = k / m, where

ω = angular frequency in rad/s

k = force constant in N/m

m = mass in kg

So,

ω² = 115 / 1.1

ω² = 104.55

ω = √104.55

ω = 10.22 rad/s

If y(0) = -0.35 m and we want our A to be positive, then suffice to say,

The value of coefficient A in meters is 0.35 m

A small sphere with a mass of 441 g is moving upward along the vertical +y-axis when it encounters an electric field of 5.00 N/C
sweet-ann [11.9K]
In your question where the ask is to calculate the charge that the small sphere carries which is the mass of it is 441g moving at an acceleration of 13m/s^2 nad having and electric field of 5N/C. So the formula in getting the charge is mutliply the mass and the quotients of Acceleration and the Electric Field so the answer is 1,146.6

The kinetic energy of any moving object is

            K.E.  =  (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .
 
To use this simple formula, the 'mass' has to be in kilograms,
and the 'speed' has to be in meters-per-second. 

You can see that we have a slight problem that has to be cleaned up:
The speed in the question is given in "kilometers per hour", but we'll
need it in "meters per second".  So let's convert that right now: 

       (600 km/hour) x (1 hour / 3600 seconds) x (1000 meters / km)

    =    (600 x 1 x 1000 / 3600)    (km-hour-meters / hour-second-km)

    =              166.67  meters/second .

Now we're ready to plug numbers into the formula for K.E.

                  (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

            =    (1/2) (80,000 kg) (166.67 m/s)²

            =           (40,000 kg) (27,777.8 m²/s²)

            =                1,111,111,111  kg-m²/s²

            =                 1.1... x 10⁹  Joules   (choice D)
