Suppose that, while lying on a beach near the equator watching the Sun set over a calm ocean, you start a stopwatch just as the

top of the Sun disappears. You then stand, elevating your eyes by a height H = 1.70 m, and stop the watch when the top of the Sun again disappears. If the elapsed time is t = 11.1 s, what is the radius r of Earth?

You drive 6.00 km at 50.0 km/h and then another 6.00kmat 900 km/h Your average speed over
Cerrena [4.2K]

Explanation:

average speed = total distance travelled / total time travelled

time to travel the first 6km: 6 / 50 = 3/25 (h)

time to travel the next 6km: 6 / 90 = 1/15 (h)

[I think there's problem in the question 'cause 900km/h sounds impossible for normal person to travel in normal condition]

The total time: 3/25 + 1/15 = 14/75 (h)

Average speed over the 12 km drive will be:

\frac{12}{ \frac{14}{75} }  =  \frac{450}{7}  = 64.3 \: km{h}^{ - 1}

A car travels initially at 24 m/s, until it enters the highway. If the car accelerates at 4 m/s^2 for a 96 meters, what is the c
marishachu [46]
  • initial velocity=u=24m/s
  • Acceleration=a=4m/s^2
  • Distance=s=96m
  • Final velocity=v

Using 3rd equation of kinematics

\boxed{\Large{\sf v^2-u^2=2as}}

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=u^2+2as

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=24^2+2(4)(96)

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=576+768

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v^2=1344

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v=\sqrt{1344}

\\ \Large\sf\longmapsto v=36.6m/s
