Answer:

Halfway between B and A on the return leg.

Explanation:

Your average SPEED for the entire trip will equal your constant speed as the time and distance increase at proportionate rates.

Your average VELOCITY will equal your constant speed while you travel from A to B because time and displacement are increasing at proportionate rates.

When you turn around at B to return, your Displacement is now decreasing while your travel time continues to increase, so your average velocity decreases.

Lets say the distance from A to B is 90 km and your constant speed is 30 km/hr.

your average speed is 30 km/hr because you took 6 hrs to travel 180 km

We want to find your position when your average velocity is 30/3 = 10 km/hr

it took 3 hrs to go 90 km from A to B. Let t be the time lapsed since turn around

your displacement is given by d = 90 - 30(t)

and your total time of travel is t + 3 hrs

 v = d/t

10 = (90 - 30t) / (t + 3)

10(t + 3) = (90 - 30t)

10t + 30 = 90 - 30t

40t = 60

t = 1.5 hrs

This will occur when you are halfway between B and A

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily
den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.

At what speed does a 1400 compact car have the same kinetic energy as a 20000 truck going 25 ?
kumpel [21]
K=1400*V^2/2
K=20000*25^2/2. => 1400*V^2/2=20000*25^2/2 <=> 1400*V^2=20000*25^2
14*V^2=200*225
v^2=100*225/7
v=250/7^(1/2)

Answer: 250*7^(1/2)/7

Ask Your Teacher The height h in feet reached by a dolphin t seconds after breaking the surface of the water is given by h = −16
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

1 second

Explanation:

h = −16t² + 32t

When, h = 16

16 = −16t² + 32t

Divide each of the numbers by 16

1 = -1t² + 2t

Rearrange the equation

1t²-2t+1 = 0

Solving by the quadratic formula, we get

t=\frac{-(-2)\pm \sqrt{(-2)^2-4\times 1\times 1}}{2\times 1}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{2\pm 0}{2}\\\Rightarrow t=1\ s

So, time taken by the dolphin to jump out of the water and touch the trainer's hand is 1 second.
