Answer:

Explanation:

Average speed = Total distance / Total time.

100 km/hr

r = 100 km / hr

t = 6 hours

d = 6 * 100 = 600 km

120 km / hr

r = 120 km / hr

t = 5 hour

d = 120 * 5

d = 600 km

Total distance = 600 + 600 = 1200 km

Total time = 5 hour + 6 hours = 11 hours.

Average speed = 1200 km / 11 hours = 109.1

an object is moving with constant velocity downwards on a frictionless inclined plane that makes an angle of

Andru [333]

An object is moving with constant velocity downwards on a frictionless inclined plane that makes an angle of θ with the horizontal.

1. Which direction does the force of gravity act on the object?

2. Which direction does the normal force act on the object?

Which force is responsible for the object moving down the incline?

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

1. When an object is moving with a constant velocity, the direction the force of gravity act on the object is DIRECTLY DOWN.

2. When an object is moving with a constant velocity, the direction the normal force act on the object "perpendicular to the surface of the plane."

3. When an object is moving with a constant velocity, the force that is responsible for the object moving down the incline is "the component of the gravitational force parallel to the surface of the inclined plane."

a 2kg object is moving horizontally with a speed of 4 m/s.how much net force is required to keep the object moving at this speed

Elza [17]

If the object is moving in a straight line with constant speed,
that's a description of " acceleration = zero ".

Zero acceleration means zero net force on the object.

NO net force is 'required' to keep an object moving in a straight line
at constant speed. In fact, if there IS any net force on the object,
then either its speed or its direction MUST change ... there's no way
to avoid it.

None of this depends on the object's mass, or on the speed or direction
of its motion.

I need to choose a theme for my physics assignment My experiment is finding g

Kobotan [32]

<h3>Question:</h3>

How to find g (acceleration due to gravity)

<h3>Solution:</h3>

We know,

Acceleration due to gravity (g)

$= \frac{GM}{ {R}^{2} }$

where, G = Gravitational constant

$= 6.67 \times {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2} \\$

M = Mass of the earth

$= 6 \times {10}^{24} \: kg$

R = Radius of the earth

$= 6.4 \times {10}^{6} m$

Putting these values of G, M and R in the above formula, we get

$g \: = \: \frac{6.67 \times {10}^{11} N {m}^{2}/k {g}^{2} \times \: 6 \times {10}^{24} \: kg }{(6.4 \times {10}^{6}m {)}^{2} } \\ = 9.8m/ {s}^{2}$

So, the value of acceleration due to gravity is

$9.8m/s ^{2}$

Hope it helps.

Phantasy [73]

Complete Question

A 100-W (watt) light bulb has resistance R=143Ω (ohms) when attached to household current, where voltage varies as V=V0sin(2πft), where V0=110 V, f=60 Hz. The power supplied to the bulb is P=V2R J/s (joules per second) and the total energy expended over a time period [0,T] (in seconds) is $U = \int\limits^T_0 {P(t)} \, dt$
