Answer:

The answer is Average speed is equal to 12.5 m/sec

Explanation:

1- The average speed is the relationship between the distance traveled that a body made and the total time it took to perform it.

2- The formula that allows to calculate the average velocity is V = ΔX/ΔT where (V) is the average speed, (ΔX) is the distance traveled and (ΔT) is the time interval.

3- Knowing this we can replace the values given in the problem:

V = \frac{400m}{32sec} \\V = 12.5  m/sec

To find average speed, we divide the distance of travel (in this case, 400 metres) by the time she took, 32 seconds.  Therefore: 12.5 seconds is her average speed.

What is the minimum speed needed to fire a champagne cork a distance of 11m?
Crank

To start with solving this problem, let us assume a launch angle of 45 degrees since that gives out the maximum range for given initial speed. Also assuming that it was launched at ground level since no initial height was given. Using g = 9.8 m/s^2, the initial velocity is calculated using the formula:

(v sinθ)^2 = (v0 sinθ)^2 – 2 g d

where v is final velocity = 0 at the peak, v0 is the initial velocity, d is distance = 11 m

Rearranging to find for v0: <span>
v0 = sqrt (d * g/ sin(2 θ)) </span>

<span>v0 = 10.383 m/s</span>

What is true about an object in free fall?
salantis [7]
The only force being acted upon it is gravity. A ball that was thrown downward off a building isn't in freefall, because it had initial velocity. A piece of paper can't necessarily be in free fall because it is affected by air resistance.

An amount of work W is done on an object of mass m initially at rest, and as result it winds up moving at speed v. Suppose inste
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

W amount of work is done on the system such that it acquires v velocity after operation(initial velocity)

According to work energy theorem work done by all the forces is equal to change in kinetic energy of object

W=\frac{1}{2}mv^2---1

where m=mass of object

v=velocity of object

When the object is already have velocity v then the final speed is given by work energy theorem

W=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv^2-----2

From 1 and 2 we get

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}mv^2

2\times \frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_f^2

v_f^2=2v^2

v_f=\sqrt{2}v
