You start by writing down your parameters;
u=60m/s
v=0
t=8s
So acceleration(a)=v-u/t
=0-60/8
=-60/8
=-7.5m/s
To the nearest hundredth will be
-7.5*100
=-750m/s

You repeated a measurement 6 times and recorded the time using a stop watch: 5.8s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 4.3s, 4.6s. What average va
iVinArrow [24]

Answer and Explanation

Arranging the measured values in increasing order;

4.3s, 4.6s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 5.8s

The two outliers are obviously 4.3s and 5.8s; An outlier is a value in a statistical sample which does not fit a pattern that describes most other data point. Outliers make the average value complicated. So, it is usually better for data to be precise with data points spreading out around a small area.

So, the mean is the average of the four remaining data points after removing the outliers.

Mean = (4.6 + 4.6 + 4.8 + 5.1)/4

Mean = 4.775s

So, the value recorded should be 4.775s, 4.78s or 4.8s depending on the number of decimal places allowed.

Compute your average velocity in the following two cases: (a) You walk 50.2 m at a speed of 2.21 m/s and then run 50.2 m at a sp
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

a) 2.87 m/s

b) 3.23 m/s

Explanation:

The avergare velocity can be found dividing the length traveled d by the total time t.

a)

For the first part we easily know the total traveled length which is:

d = 50.2 m + 50.2 m = 100.4 m

The time can be found dividing the distance by the velocity:

t1 = 50.2 m / 2.21 m/s = 22.7149 s

t2 = 50.2 m / 4.11 m/s = 12.2141 s

t = t1 +t2 = 34.9290 s

Therefore, the average velocity is:

v = d/t =2.87 m/s

b)

Here we can easily know the total time:

t = 1 min + 1.16 min = 129.6 s

Now the distance wil be found multiplying each velocity by the time it has travelled:

d1 = 2.21 m/s * 60 s = 132.6 m

d2 = 4.11 m/s *(1.16 * 60 s) = 286.056 m

d = 418.656 m

Therefore, the average velocity is:

v = d/t =3.23 m/s

4 Suggest four ways in which participating in physical activities can build healthy relationship? 5.Show in two ways the influeb
valina [46]

Answer:

  • Increases levels of well-being neurotransmitters
  • Improves fitness
  • Improves mental health
  • Reduces the risk of developing diseases

Explanation:

Performing physical activities helps to build a healthy relationship with yourself, in the sense that physical activity promotes health at all levels. Health is a set of physical, mental and social well-being, so physical activity reaches all these levels and increases the quality of life for a person as a whole.

There are several types of physical activities that can be performed and you can choose the one that best fits your preferences and routine. A walk for example can be done in any safe place and at any time and it already helps in improving physical conditioning, in receiving serotonin and endorphins, in reducing blood pressure and protecting the heart and in improving mental health.

So the ideal is for each person to set their own goals in relation to their health and seek to achieve them, either to have a better quality of life, to socialize more with people, to prevent diseases, etc.

An electron moving parallel to a uniform electric field increases its speed from 2.0 × 107 m/s to 4.0 × 107 m/s over a distance
jeka94

Answer:

1.8\times 105 N/C

Explanation:

We are given that

u=2\times 10^7 m/s

v=4\times 10^7 m/s

d=1.9 cm=\frac{1.9}{100}=0.019 m

Using 1m=100 cm

We have to find the electric field strength.

v^2-u^2=2as

Using the formula

(4\times 10^7)^2-(2\times 10^7)^2=2a(0.019)

16\times 10^{14}-4\times 10^{14}=0.038a

0.038a=12\times 10^{14}

a=\frac{12}{0.038}\times 10^{14}=3.16\times 10^{16}m/s^2

q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of electron,m=9.1\times 10^{-31} kg

E=\frac{ma}{q}

Substitute the values

E=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 3.16\times 10^{16}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

E=1.8\times 105 N/C
