8 0

First half:

50 km at 50 km/hr ... 1 hour

Second half:

50 km at 100 km/hr ... 1/2 hour

Total distance = 100 km

Total time = 1.5 hours

Average speed = (100 km) / (1.5 hrs)

Average speed = 66 and 2/3 km/hr

Average velocity = 66 and 2/3 km/hr East

andreev551 [17]
While refrigerant 410a is a near azeotropic refrigerant, it is still best when charging to remove the r-410a as a liquid from the storage cylinder.
Azeotrope means a constant boiling mixture. it is a mixture of two or more liquids,by simple distillation whose proportions cannot be changed. A mixture behaving purely is azeotropic and the mixture which behave differently is called non-azeotropic.

A 10n force is applied to a 25kg mass to slide it across a frictional surface. What is the acceleration of the mass?
klasskru [66]

Answer: a = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c where c is the coefficient of kinetic friction of the surface

Explanation: We know that, by the second Newton's law, a = F/m

where a is the acceleration, F is the net force and m is the mass of the object.

Then, if the surface is frictionless, the total force applied in the object is 10N, and the mass of the object is 25kg, so the acceleration is:

a =10N/25kg = 0.4m/s^2.

But if the surface is frictional, there will be a force of friction applied in the mass (this depends on the coefficient of friction and the weight of the mass), this means that the acceleration will be reduced.

If = -(9.8*25)*c

where c is a number that is bigger than 0 and smaller than 1, is called the coefficient of kinetic friction.

So the total force is now:

F = (10 - 9.8*25*c)

Then, the acceleration in a frictional surface is equal to:

a = (10 - 9.8*25*c)/25 = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c

The tuning fork has a frequency of 426.7 is found to cause resonance in a closed column of air measuring 0.186 (the diameter of
lidiya [134]

Answer:

The velocity of the tuning fork sound is 317.4648 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency of the fork, f = 426.7 Hz

The length of the closed air column, L = 0.186 m

The diameter of the tube, d = 0.15 m

At the fundamental frequency in a closed tube, we have;

λ = 4·L

Where;

λ = The wavelength of the wave

L = The length of the tube

From the equation for the velocity of a wave, we have;

v = f·λ

Where;

v = The velocity of the (sound) wave

f = The frequency of the wave = 426.7 Hz

λ = 4·L = 4 × 0.186 m = 0.744 m

∴ v = 426.7 Hz × 0.744 m = 317.4648 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the sound produced by the tuning fork, v = 317.4648 m/s
