A car travels 100 km to the east. If the first half of the distance is driven at 50 km/h and the second half at 100 km/h, what i

s the average velocity
Physics

Lina20 [59]3 years ago
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

Assuming the average rate of heat energy flowing outwards from earth to be 0.063 W/m2 calculate the energy available at a hot sp
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

"13.48 Kwhr" is the right solution.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Average rate of heat energy,

= 0.063 W/m²

Diameter,

= 8m

Efficiency of conversion,

= 50%

Now,

The area of hotspot will be:

⇒  A=\frac{\pi}{4} d^2

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      =\frac{3.14}{4} (8)^2

⇒      =0.785\times 64

⇒      =50.24 \ m^2

Total heat generation rate will be:

⇒  Q=q\times A

        =0.063\times 50.24

        =3.16 \ W

hence,

The electricity generation capacity will be:

⇒  P=\eta Q t

On substituting the values, we get

⇒      =0.5\times 3.16\times 8760

⇒      =13840.8 \ Whr

On converting into Kwhr, we get

⇒      =13.84 \ Kwhr

The metric unit of force is the
grandymaker [24]

The unit of force is the 'Newton'.

1 newton is the force that accelerates 1 kilogram of mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second-squared.

                   1 N  =  1 kg-m/s²

-- A force of 1 pound is about  4.448 newtons.

-- A force of 1 newton is about  3.6 ounces.

A dragster runs the quarter mile in 8.96 s. What is the car's velocity (in ft/s) at the finish line?
lara [203]
The first thing you should know to answer this question is the following conversion:
 1mi = 5280feet
 We have then that the speed is:
 v = ((1/4) * (5280)) / (8.96)
 v = 147.32 feet / s
 Answer:
 the car's velocity (in ft / s) at the finish line is 147.32 feet / s

If wave A has twice the amplitude and three times the frequency as wave B, then the energy carried by wave A must be ____ times
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

4 times

Explanation:

As we know that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave,

Here, the amplitude of the wave A is twice as compared to B.

So, the energy of wave A is 4 times the energy of wave B.
