Answer:

Average speed is a measurement of velocity over a period of time.

Constant speed refers to your velocity at any point in time or period

Answer:

Explanation:

constant speed is where the speed is the same throughout and instantaneous speed is speed given at any moment and average speed is a total distance traveled divided by the amount of time it took to travel it.

A suspension bridge has twin towers that are 1300 feet apart. Each tower extends 180 feet above the road surface. The cables are

Answer:

$y = 17.04 ft$

Explanation:

Since the cable touches the road at the mid point of two towers

so here we have vertex at that mid point taken to be origin

now the maximum height on the either side is given as

$y = 180 ft$

horizontal distance of the tower from mid point is given as

$x = \frac{1300}{2} = 650 ft$

now from the equation of parabola we have

$y = k x^2$

$180 = k(650^2)$

$k = 4.26 \times 10^{-4}$

now we have

$y = (4.26 \times 10^{-4})x^2$

now we need to find the height at distance of 200 ft from center

so we have

$y = (4.26 \times 10^{-4})(200^2)$

$y = 17.04 ft$

A uniform electric field of 2 kNC-1 is in the x-direction. A point charge of 3 μC initially at rest at the origin is released. W

ANEK [815]

The electric force acting on the charge is given by the charge multiplied by the electric field intensity:
$F=qE$
where in our problem $q=3 \mu C= 3 \cdot 10^{-6} C$ and $E=2 kN/C=2000 N/C$ , so the force is
$F=(3 \cdot 10^{-6} C)(2000 N/C)=0.006 N$

The initial kinetic energy of the particle is zero (because it is at rest), so its final kinetic energy corresponds to the work done by the electric force for a distance of x=4 m:
$K(4 m)=W=Fd=(0.006 N)(4 m)=0.024 J$

What us meant by Velocity ratio of simple machine is 4?<br><br><br>

butalik [34]

The force ratio of a machine is 4 and it velocity ratio is 4 means that the load moved is four times the effort applied and the distance moved by the effort is five times the distance moved by the load at the same time interval.
