Answer:

Average speed of the car is 54.55 miles/hour

Explanation:

The average speed of an object is the total distance traveled by the

object divided by the time taken to cover this distance

Speed is a scalar quantity which means it is defined only by magnitude

Average speed = total distance ÷ total time

A car traveled 300 miles in 5.5 hours

We need to find the average speed of the car

The average speed of the car = the distance traveled ÷ the time taken

for this distance

The distance is 300 miles

The time taken is 5.5 hours

Average speed = \frac{300}{5.5}=54.55 miles/hour

<em>Average speed of the car is 54.55 miles/hour</em>

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

4.68227 °C

Explanation:

m_o = Mass of object = 500 kg

m_w = Mass of water = 25 kg

c = Specific heat of water at 20°C = 4186 J/kg°C

h = Height from which the object falls = 100 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy and heat will balance each other

PE=Q\\\Rightarrowmc m_ogh=m_oc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=\frac{m_ogh}{m_oc}\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=\frac{500\times 9.8\times 100}{25\times 4186}\\\Rightarrow \Delta=4.68227\ ^{\circ}C

The temperature change in the water is 4.68227 °C

Calculat the acceleration of a person at latitude<br> 40degreesowing to the rotation of the earth.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

acceleration of person = 9.77 m/s²

Explanation:

given data

latitude = 40 degree

to find out

Calculate the acceleration of a person

solution

we know that here 40 degree = 0.698 rad

so

acceleration of person = g - ω²R    ...............1

and 1 rotation complete in 24 hours = 360 degree

here g is 9.81

so we know Earth angular speed ω = 7.27 × 10^{-5} rad/s and R is earth radius that is 6.37 × 10^{6} m

so

put here value in equation 1 we get

acceleration of person = g - ω²R

acceleration of person = 9.81 - (7.27 × 10^{-5})² × 6.37 × 10^{6}

acceleration of person = 9.77 m/s²

Why copper is classified as a metal.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

It is classified as a metal because of its high ductility, malleability, thermal and electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion. Copper is a mineral used for our everyday use. It is limited and we have to use it wisely because it is not evenly distributed everywhere and also everyone needs it. Copper is element number 29 on the Periodic Table of Elements. It is also used it electronics and wiring.

hope this helped
