Answer: To answer this question, we will need the following equation: SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (A multiplication and division triangle will be shown)i) The speed of the car is calculated by doing 100 metres/ 20 seconds which gives us 5 metres per second. ii) Rearranging the equation earlier, we can make the distance the subject of the equation so that we get SPEED x TIME = DISTANCE. We worked out the speed and the time was given as 1 minute 40 seconds but we cannot plug in the numbers yet as the time has to be converted to units of seconds (because our speed is in meters per second). 1 minute 40 seconds = 60 seconds + 40 seconds = 100 secondsWe then plug in the numbers to get the distance travelled = 5 metres per second x 100 seconds = 500 metres.
Explanation:
There’s 10mm in a cm: 22mm
<span>Taking into account the information above, we know the average mass of the bucket of water may be m=20-5/2=17.5kg. As the bucket of water is pulled at a "constant velocity" the work required to raise the bucket to the platform transformed into the potential energy of the bucket of water. That is why it should be W=mgh=17.5*9.8*40=6860J</span>
