How long will it take you to travel 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 miles/h?

Physics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago

Answer:

<u>20 Minutes</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Well we know Mph (Miles per hour) is distance over time : \frac{distance}{time} \\

R (rate) = 60

d (distance) = 20

t (time) = Unknown

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 R = \frac{d}{t}  

   ↓

60 = \frac{20}{t}

   ↓

 t = \frac{20}{60}

    ↓

 t = \frac{1}{3}  or 0.3333

<em>So basically it would take one third of an hour. Lets change these units to minutes.</em>

60 * 0.333333 = 20

<em>So it would take you </em><u><em>20 minutes</em></u><em> to drive 20 miles on a bus that drives 60 mph</em>

<em />

Hope that helps

Describe the initial horizontal and vertical velocity of a horizontally launched projectile on Earth, as well as what happens to
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

To explain this, let's consider a tennis ball being launched from the top of a very high building.

Now, if the tennis ball is launched horizontally without any upward angle but with an initial velocity of 10 m/s. In this motion, If there is no gravity, the tennis ball would continue in motion at that same speed of 10 m/s in the horizontal direction. However, in reality, gravity causes the tennis ball to accelerate downwards at a rate of 9.8 m/s for every second. This implies that the vertical velocity component is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s every second.

Thus, after 1 second, horizontal velocity component will remain 10 m/s and vertical component will be 9.8 m/s × 1 = 9.8 m/s downwards.

Also, after 2 seconds, the vertical velocity component will remain 10 m/s, however the vertical component will now be 9.8 × 2 = 19.6 m/s downwards.

Same procedure is repeated as t increases by 1 second.

viva [34]

Answer:

a. True - Joules is the unit measure for energy.

b. False - Potential energy is associated with position

c. False - Kinetic energy is associated with movement.

d. False - It's climbing, which means it also has kinetic energy.

While on vacation, Carine rides in a hot-air balloon. To make the balloon rise, the pilot turns on a flame to warm the air insid
andre [41]

The air inside becomes warmer, and that makes it LESS DENSE.

Less-dense air FLOATS in denser air. Since it's inside the balloon, it picks the balloon up when it floats.

A spring with spring constant 15 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. It is
olga nikolaevna [1]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 15 N/m

Amplitude of the oscillation, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

Number of oscillations, N = 31

Time, t = 15 s

(a) Let m is the mass of the ball. The frequency of oscillation of the spring is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

Total number of oscillation per unit time is called frequency of oscillation. Here, f=\dfrac{31}{15}=2.06\ Hz

m=\dfrac{k}{4\pi^2f^2}

m=\dfrac{15}{4\pi^2\times 2.06^2}

m = 0.0895 kg

or

m = 89 g

(b) The maximum speed of the ball that is given by :

v_{max}=A\times \omega

v_{max}=A\times 2\pi f

v_{max}=0.075\times 2\pi \times 2.06

v_{max}=0.970\ m/s

v_{max}=97\ cm/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a system of an 85.0 kg man, his 14.5-kg dog, and the earth. The gravitational potential energy of the system increases
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

Increase in gravitational potential energy = m x g x h

where m is mass , g is gravitational acceleration and h is height

In the first case when man climbs

increase in potential = 85 x g x h = 1.85 x 10³ J

gh = 21.7647

when dog climbs

increase in potential = 14.5 x g x h  J

= 14.5 x 21.7647

= 315.6 J
