The whole point of this problem is to check how well you understand
the definitions of a few important quantities, like velocity, speed, distance,
displacement etc.
Before we begin, I just want to mention that 'MPG' is not a unit of either
velocity or speed, but I think I know what you mean.
-- For some reason, Ms. Eaddy rode 100 miles north on the train, then
stayed aboard while the train turned around and took her 150 miles south.
The total distance she rode was (100 + 150) = 250 miles. But she ended up
50 miles south of where she began.
-- Displacement for the whole trip = distance and direction from the start point
to the finish point.
Displacement = 50 miles south
-- Average velocity = (displacement) / (time)
50 miles south / 3.5 hours = <u>14.29 miles per hour south</u>
Answer:
Explanation:
When we accelerate in a car on a straight path we tend to lean backward because our lower body part which is directly in contact with the seat of the car gets accelerated along with it but the upper the upper body experiences this force later on due to its own inertia. This force is accordance with Newton's second law of motion and is proportional to the rate of change of momentum of the upper body part.
Conversely we lean forward while the speed decreases and the same phenomenon happens in the opposite direction.
While changing direction in car the upper body remains in its position due to inertia but the lower body being firmly in contact with the car gets along in the direction of the car, seems that it makes the upper body lean in the opposite direction of the turn.
On abrupt change in the state of motion the force experienced is also intense in accordance with the Newton's second law of motion.
The maximum force of static friction is the product of normal force (P) and the coefficient of static friction (c). In a flat surface, normal force is equal to the weight (W) of the body.
P = W = mass x acceleration due to gravity
P = (0.3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 2.94 kg m/s² = 2.94 N
Solving for the static friction force (F),
F = P x c
F = (2.94 N) x 0.6 = 1.794 N
Therefore, the maximum force of static friction is 1.794 N.
The beats are actually two new sounds.
Their frequencies are (the sum of the original two frequencies) and (the difference of the original two frequencies).
The existence of the beats is the result of the difference in the frequencies of the original two sounds. <em> (b)</em>
Answer:
Torque, 
Explanation:
It is given that,
Length of the wrench, l = 0.5 m
Force acting on the wrench, F = 80 N
The force is acting upward at an angle of 60.0° with respect to a line from the bolt through the end of the wrench. We need to find the torque is applied to the nut. We know that torque acting on an object is equal to the cross product of force and distance. It is given by :
So, the torque is applied to the nut is 34.6 N.m. Hence, this is the required solution.
