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

Physics
1 answer:
Ne4ueva [31]2 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.

Which scientific law describes the relationship between action and reaction force pairs? Newton's third law of motion Kepler's l
Hitman42 [59]

Newton's third law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that:

<em>"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction force) on object A"</em>

It is important to note that this law is always valid, even when it seems it is not.

Consider for example the gravitational force that the Earth exerts on your body (= your weight). We can say that this is the action force. It may seems that there is no reaction force in this case. However, this is not true: in fact, your body also exerts an equal and opposite force on the Earth, and this is the reaction force. The reason that explains why we don't notice any effect on Earth due to this force is that the mass of the Earth is much larger than your mass, therefore the acceleration produced on the Earth because of the force you apply is negligible.

It is also important to note that the action-reaction pair of forces always act on two different objects, so they never appear in the same free-body diagram.

A piece of wood has a mass of 25g and a volume of <br> 10cm3 What is its density?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.5 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}  \\

From the question we have

density =  \frac{25}{10}  =  \frac{5}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.5 g/cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

A 200g(m2) mass is pulling the cart (m1) across the table as shown below. If it covers 1.12m in 4.8 seconds starting from rest,
Vsevolod [243]

Answer: 20.21 kg

Explanation:

The mass hanging from the pulley is pulling the cart. The force by which cart is being pulled is equal to weight of the hanging mass.

F=m_2g

⇒F=0.200 kg ×9.8 m/s²=1.96 N

Since there is no other force acting on the cart and there is no friction, so this force will pull the cart.

The Cart covers 1.12 m distance in 4.8 s.

From the equation of motion,

s = u t + 0.5 × a t²

We will find the acceleration of the cart,

Distance covered, s = 1.12 m

Initial velocity, u = 0 ( staring from rest)

Time taken, t = 4.8 s

⇒1.12 m = 0 + 0.5 × a × (4.8 s)²

⇒a = 0.097 m/s²

Now the force which causes this acceleration is:

F = ma

where m is the mass of the cart and a is the acceleration of the cart

⇒1.96 N = m×0.097 m/s²

⇒m = 20.21 kg

Hence, the mass of the cart is 20.21 kg.
