Hey!

---------------------------------------------------

Formula: Distance / Time = Speed

---------------------------------------------------

Solution:

Speed = 15/20 = 0.75cm/sec

Velocity = 5/20 = 0.25cm/sec

10 + 5 = 15 (distance traveled)

---------------------------------------------------

Answer:

Speed = 0.75cm/sec

Velocity = 0.25cm/sec going forward.

---------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

Answer:

Average speed = 0.0075 m/s

Average velocity = 0.0025 m/s along forward direction

Explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance and time and velocity is the ratio of displacement and time.

Distance traveled = 10 + 5 = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Displacement = 10 - 5 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Time = 20 seconds

$\texttt{Average speed = }\frac{\texttt{Distance}}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\\texttt{Average speed = }\frac{0.15}{20}=7.5\times 10^{-3}m/s\\\\\texttt{Average velocity = }\frac{\texttt{Displacement}}{\texttt{Time}}\\\\\texttt{Average velocity = }\frac{0.05}{20}=2.5\times 10^{-3}m/s$

Average speed = 0.0075 m/s

Average velocity = 0.0025 m/s along forward direction

During the first 6 years of its operation, the Hubble Space Telescope circled the Earth 37,000 times, for a total of 1,280,000,0

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

v = 384km/min

Explanation:

In order to calculate the speed of the Hubble space telescope, you first calculate the distance that Hubble travels for one orbit.

You know that 37000 times the orbit of Hubble are 1,280,000,000 km. Then, for one orbit you have:

$d=\frac{1,280,000,000km}{37,000}=34,594.59km$

You know that one orbit is completed by Hubble on 90 min. You use the following formula to calculate the speed:

$v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{34,594.59km}{90min}=384.38\frac{km}{min}\approx384\frac{km}{min}$

hence, the speed of the Hubble is approximately 384km/min

Basile [38]

The correct answer is the last option. The force that moving, charged particles exert on one another is called electromagnetic force. This force involves physical interaction between two electrically charged particles. It is seen as electromagnetic fields such as electric fields, magnetic fields and light.

calculate the work done in kilo joules in lifting a mass of 20kg at steady velocity through a vertical height of 20m

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf Work\ done = 4 kJ}$

Explanation:

Since work done is in the form of potential energy, we will use the formula of potential energy here.

We know that,

Where,

m = mass = 20 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

h = vertical height = 20 m

So,

Work done = (20)(10)(20)

Work done = 4000 joules

Work done = 4 kJ

A cannonball is fired horizontally at the same time a ball being dropped from the same height How do the times it takes them to

ipn [44]

Answer:

The cannonball and the ball will both take the same amount of time before they hit the ground.

Explanation:

For a ball fired horizontally from a given height, there is only a vertical acceleration on it towards the ground. This acceleration is equal to the acceleration due to gravity (g = 9.81 m/s^2). A ball dropped from a height will also only experience the same vertical acceleration downwards which is also equal to g = 9.81 m/s^2.

Therefore both the cannonball and the ball will take the same amount of time to hit the ground if they are released/fired from the same height.

A certain plucked string produces a fundamental frequency of 150 hz. Which frequency is not one of the harmonics produced by tha

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Some of the frequency that cannot be produced by the string includes 400Hz, 500Hz 650Hz etc...

Explanation:

Harmonics in strings are defined as the integral multiples of its fundamental frequency. This multiples are in arithmetic progression.

For example if Fo is the fundamental frequency of the string, the harmonics will be 2fo, 3fo, 4fo, 5fo... etc

If the string produces a fundamental frequency of 150Hz, some of the harmonics produced by the string will be 300Hz, 450Hz, 600Hz, 750Hz... etc

Some of the harmonics that cannot be produced include 400Hz, 500Hz 650Hz etc...
