Answer:
a) 20 m/s
b) 37.5 m)s
Explanation:
Average speed = total distance ÷ total time
=> (a) average speed of a car that travels 400m in 20s
= 400/20 = 20 m/s
& (b) average speed of an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes (or 4×60=240 seconds)
= 1500/240 = 37.5 m/s
This question is asking: Why does gravity occur? why will your notebook get pulled towards you?
Answer:
8 N North.
Explanation:
Given that,
One force has a magnitude of 10 N directed north, and the other force has a magnitude of 2 N directed south.
We need to find the magnitude of net force acting on the object.
Let North is positive and South is negative.
Net force,
F = 10 N +(-2 N)
= 8 N
So, the magnitude of net force on the object is 8 N and it is in North direction (as it is positive). Hence, the correct option is (d) "8N north".
Answer:
x = 5.79 m
Explanation:
given,
mass of the car = 39000 Kg
spring constant = 5.7 x 10⁵ N/m
acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
height of the track = 25 m
length of spring compressed = ?
using conservation of energy
potential energy is converted into spring energy




x = 5.79 m
the spring is compressed to x = 5.79 m to stop the car.
The best answer is b - span.
A span is the distance between two bridge supports The supports may be towers, columns, or even the wall of a canyon.
There are many kinds of bridges but they all fall into three types namely beam, arch and suspension. The major difference between these three kinds of bridges is the distance that each can cross in a single span.
For example, a modern beam bridge is likely to span a distance of 200 feet, a modern arch can span 800 or 1000feet, and a modern suspension bridge can span up to 7000ft.
