A student walks a distance of 3 km in 20 minutes calculate his average speed

Physics
1 answer:
serg [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

His average speed is 0.15 kilometer per minute or 2.5 meters per second.

Explanation:

average speed = distance/time

x = 3 km/20 minutes

x = 0.15

—

x = 3000 m/1200 s

x = 2.5

Lostsunrise [7]

Let volume of empty boat be = 100% = 1V

and mass of boat be M

In water 10%, 0.1V of the volume is submerged.

Mass, m of 1200kg increases the submerging from 10%, 0.1V to 70%, 0.7V

M leads to 0.1V boat submerging

boat submerging.

M + 1200kg leads to 0.7V boat submerging.

This is 60%, 0.6 V increase

By comparison

(M+1200kg) * 0.1V = 0.7V * M

0.1M + 120kg = 0.7M

120kg = 0.7M - 0.1M

120kg = 0.6M

M = (120/0.6)kg

M = 200kg.

The mass of the boat is 200kg.

Why it is difficult to run fast in sand​
balu736 [363]
Running on sand requires 1.6 times more energy spent than running on hard surface, so the force applied by our foot on sand is less.

A rocket on Earth experiences an upward applied force from its thrusters. As a result of this force, the rocket accelerates upwa
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

F=m(11.8m/s²)

For example, if m=10,000kg, F=118,000N.

Explanation:

There are only two vertical forces acting on the rocket: the force applied from its thrusters F, and its weight mg. So, we can write the equation of motion of the rocket as:

F-mg=ma

Solving for the force F, we obtain that:

F=ma+mg=m(a+g)

Since we know the values for a (2m/s²) and g (9.8m/s²), we have that:

F= m(2m/s^{2}+9.8m/s^{2})\\\\F=m(11.8m/s^{2})

From this relationship, we can calculate some possible values for F and m. For example, if m=10,000kg, we can obtain F:

F=(10,000kg)(11.8m/s^{2})\\\\F=118,000N

In this case, the force from the rocket's thrusters is equal to 118,000N.

1) A record is spinning at the rate of 25 rpm. If a ladybug is sitting 10 cm from the
Sladkaya [172]

<h2>distance = 523 cm</h2>

Explanation:

( a ) The rotational speed of the ladybug = 25 r.p.m = 25/60 r.p.s

= 5/12 rev/sec

( b ) The definition of frequency is the number of rotations per second .

Here the number of rotations per second is 5/12 . Thus frequency = 5/12 Hz

( c ) The tangential speed is v = angular velocity x radius of rotation

The angular velocity ω = 2π x n , where n is the number of rotations per second

Thus angular velocity = 2π x 5/12   = 5π/6 rad/sec

The linear velocity = angular velocity x distance from center of record

Thus tangential speed = 5π/6 x 10 = 25π/3 cm/sec

Angular displacement in 20 sec = ω x t = 5π/6 x 20 = 50π/3 rad

Linear displacement = angular displacement x distance from center of record

= 50π/3 x 10 = 500π/3 = 523 cm
