The average velocity of the car for the whole journey is 69.57 km/h.

The given parameters:

  • <em>Length of the road, L = 320 km</em>
  • <em>Distance covered = 240 km at 75 km/h</em>
  • <em>time spent refueling, t₂ = 0.6 hr</em>
  • <em>Final velocity, = 100 km/hr</em>

The time spent by the before refueling is calculated as follows;

t = \frac{d}{v} \\\\t_1 = \frac{240}{75} \\\\t_1 = 3.2 \ hours

The time spent by the car for the remaining journey;

t_3 = \frac{320 - 240}{100} \\\\t_3 = 0.8 \ hr

The total time of the journey is calculated as follows;

t = t_1 + t_2 + t_3\\\\t = 3.2 \ hr \ + \ 0.6 \ hr \ + \ 0.8 \ hr\\\\t = 4.6 \ hours

The average velocity of the car for the whole journey is calculated as follows;

v = \frac{total \ distance }{total \ time} \\\\v = \frac{320}{4.6} \\\\v = 69.57 \ km/h

A life preserver is thrown from an helicopter straight down to a person in distress. The initial velocity of the life preserver
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:29.627 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity of life preserver(u) is 1.6 m/s

it takes 2.3 s to reach the water

using equation of motion

v=u+at

v=1.6+9.81\times 2.3

v=24.163 m/s

Let s be the height of life preserver

v^2-u^2=2gs

24.163^2-1.6^2=2\times 9.81\times s

s=\frac{581.29}{2\times 9.81}

s=29.627 m

Calculate the heat, in kilocalories, that is absorbed if 183 g of ice at 0.0 ∘C is placed in an ice bag, melts, and warms to bod
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The total amount of heat needed will be Q_T=21.411kcal.

Explanation:

We will divide the calculation in two: First, the heat needed to melt the ice, and then the heat needed to warm the resulting liquid from 0°C to 37°C.

m=183g

l_f=80\frac{cal}{g} =334\frac{J}{g}

l_w=1\frac{cal}{g} =4.184\frac{J}{g}

<em>i) </em>The fusion heat will be:

Q_f=l_fm=14640cal=14.640kcal

<em>ii)</em> The heat needed to warm the water from T_i=0^{\circ}C to T_i=37^{\circ}C will be:

Q_w=l_wm(T_f-T_i)=6771cal=6.771kcal

So, the total amount needed will be the sum of these two results:

Q_T=Q_f+Q_w=14.640kcal+6.771kcal=21.411kcal.

I REALLY NEED HELP WITH PHYSICS ASAP!!!<br>Vf^2 = v0^2 + 2a (xf - x0)<br><br><br>Solve for a
ELEN [110]

Answer:

a. solve for a

vf ^{2} = vo ^{2}  + 2a(xf - xo) \\ 2a(xf - xo) = vf^{2}    -  vo ^{2}   \\ a =  \frac{vf^{2} - vo^{2}  }{2(xf - xo)}    \\ a =  \frac{vf ^{2} - vo ^{2}  }{2xf - 2xo}

I hope I helped you ^_^
