Elsa runs 100m. She takes 20s to run this distance. What is Elsa's average speed?

Physics
1 answer:
Ne4ueva [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Average speed = 5 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 100m

Time = 20 secs

To find the average speed;

Speed = distance/time

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Speed = 100/20

Speed = 5m/s

Therefore, Elsa's average speed is 5 meters per seconds.

Why does refracting light bend when it enters a denser or less dense medium?
Rzqust [24]

Answer: The light bends because light travels fast but it slows down in a denser medium. For example light refracts in water or it bends after passing through air. When light passes through air ( a less dense medium ) then through water ( a more dense medium ) the beam of light bends because light travels more slowly in a denser medium then it picks up its pace again once it passes. The density of the substance determines how much the light is refracted. I hope this makes sense and I hope this answered your question!! :)

Explain Energy Transformation using the image below and how the Law of Conservation of Energy is maintained.
Karolina [17]

The chemical energy of petrol is converted to heat energy on combustion. The heat energy is converted to kinetic energy by the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles. The law of conservation of energy is maintained in each process.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

The kinetic energy of an object is associated with its motion. It can be related to the mass and velocity as

K.E = 1/2 mv²

Given is a diagram of energy conversion due to combustion.

The chemical energy of petrol is converted to heat energy on combustion. The heat energy is converted to kinetic energy by the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles.

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be only converted to one form to the other.

In the given process, the mass decreases but energy remains the same in all forms of energy.

Hence, the law of conservation of energy is maintained in each process

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 1.7 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.048 m, using a string of length 0
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Tension in the string is equal to 58.33 N ( this will be the strength of the string )

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 1.7 kg

radius of the circle r = 0.48 mF=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{1.7\times 4.05^2}{0.48}=58.33N

Kinetic energy is given 14 J

Kinetic energy is equal to KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

So \frac{1}{2}\times 1.7\times v^2=14

v^2=16.47

v = 4.05 m/sec

Centripetal force is equal to F=\frac{mv^2}{r}=\frac{1.7\times 4.05^2}{0.48}=58.33N

So tension in the string will be equal to 58.33 N ( this will be the strength of the string )
