The total displacement of the driver in the given time is ths sum of individual displacements, because all the displacements are in the same directon.

Total displacement = $135\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }+\text{ }0\text{ }km\text{ }+\text{ }215\text{ }km\text{ }East\text{ }=\text{ }350\text{ }km\text{ }East$

Total time travelled = $1.5\text{ }hr\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }2.0\text{ }hr\text{ }=\text{ }90\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }45\text{ }min\text{ }+\text{ }120\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }255\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4\text{ }hr\text{ }15\text{ }min\text{ }=\text{ }4.25\text{ }hr$

$\text{Average velocity = }\dfrac{\text{Total displacement}}{\text{Total time taken}}=\dfrac{350\text{ }km}{4.25\text{ }hr}=82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}$

∴ Driver's average velocity = $82.353\text{ }\frac{km}{hr}$

The period of a simple pendulum is 3.5 s. The length of the pendulum is doubled. What is the period T of the longer pendulum?

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Explanation:

T = 2π√(L/g)

If you increase L to 2L, the period is increased by a factor of √2

T = 3.5√2 ≈ 4.9 s

If the volume is held constant, what happens to the pressure of a gas as temperature is decreased? Explain.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:Decreases

Explanation:

Given

Volume is held constant that is it is a isochoric process.

We know that

PV=nRT

as n,V& R are constant therefore only variables are

P & T

so $\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}$

As $T_1$ is decreasing therefore Pressure must also decrease so that ratio remains constant.

What are the names of the 2 charged particles in an atom and what are their charges

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Protons and electrons

Explanation:

The atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The physical and chemical characteristics of an atom are determined by the number of these particle composition.
The protons present in the center of an atom called the nucleus is positively charged.
The neutrons are also located in the nucleus of an atom with no charge.
The electrons has a negative charge and it is placed around the nucleus having different shells and quantum state.
The charges of the protons and electrons are denoted by +q and -q. The quantization of these charges are +1, +2, ... and -1, -2, .... etc.
