A truck covered 2/7 of a journey at an average speed of 40

Physics
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago

Answer:

The amount of time for the whole journey is 8 hours.

Explanation:

A truck covered 2/7 of a journey at an average speed of 40  mph. Representing 1 the total of the trip traveled, then the rest of the distance traveled is calculated as: 1-\frac{2}{7} =\frac{5}{7}

So if the truck covered the remaining 200 miles at \frac{2}{7}, this means that \frac{5}{7} of the trip represents the 200 miles. So, to calculate the total distance traveled by the truck, you apply the following rule of three: if \frac{5}{7} of the route represents 200 miles, the integer 1 (which represents the total of the route), how many miles are they?

miles=\frac{1*200miles}{\frac{5}{7} } =\frac{7}{5} *200 miles

miles= 280

So the total distance traveled is 280 miles. Since speed is the relationship between the space traveled by an object and the time used for it (speed=\frac{distance}{time}), then if the average of the entire trip was 35 mph and the distance traveled 280 miles, the time is calculated as:

time=\frac{distance}{speed}=\frac{280 miles}{35 mph}

time= 8 h

<u><em> The amount of time for the whole journey is 8 hours.</em></u>

Compared to a 1-kg block of solid iron, a 2-kg block of solid iron has twice as much
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

D. All of the above.

Explanation:

Iron has a constant density, which means 2-kg block will have twice as much volume as 1-kg block; therefore, choice A is correct.

Inertia is defined by the equation F = ma: it measures how hard it is to change the motion of an object. The inertia of the the 1-kg solid iron is

F = 1a,

And the inertia of the 2-kg solid iron is

F = 2a,

which is twice as much that of the 1-kg block; therefore, choice B is correct.

The mass of the 2-kg block is twice as much as that of the 1-kg block; therefore, choice C is also correct.

Thus, all of the choices are correct (D).

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can
lord [1]

Answer:

I'm not sure..but please refer to your teacher later.

Answer: Based on Newton's First law of motion (where inertia is involved), smooth ice increases the forceused to accelerate the hockey puck.

Explanation;

  • smooth ice reduces the resistances between the surface of the figure skates and the ice itself.
  • based on inertia theory ; the heavier the weight, the larger the inertia.. which explains it takes alot of force to move a heavier object than the lighter ones.. it also hard to *stop* the motion of heavier objects than the lighter ones.
  • now let's look at the design of the player shoe itself, they have a sharp blade at the bottom of the figure stakes.. which takes us to the law of the force.. the smaller the surface area, the more forces acting on it. So, players force (weight, F= mg) acts on the tip of the blade and on the ice
  • high inertia (run fast) and high force (attack opponent and pass puck) enables them to perform well in playing hockey
  • Thus if there's no resistance and the inertia of the player is high then they could run and pass the puck quickly

Which car is accelerating?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The car that is accelerating is B a car that rounds a curve at a constant speed

Explanation:

Although all of the cars are at a constant speed or not moving acceleration is the change in speed or the change of directions therefore making the only car changing directions your answer.
