A bicycle racer rides from a starting marker to a turnaround marker at 10 m/s. She then rides back along the same route from the turnaround marker to the starting marker at 16 m/s. What is her average speed for the whole race?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12.31 m/s

Explanation:

If we recall from the previous knowledge we had about speed,

we will know that:

speed = distance/ time.

As such:

The average speed of the rider bicycle is

average speed = total distance/ total time

Mathematically, it can be computed as:

[tex]v_{avg} = \dfrac{d+d}{\dfrac{d}{v_1}+ \dfrac{d}{v_2}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{avg} = \dfrac{2d}{\dfrac{d}{10 \ m/s}+ \dfrac{d}{16 \ m/s}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{avg} = \dfrac{2}{\dfrac{1}{10 \ m/s}+ \dfrac{1}{16 \ m/s}}[/tex]

[tex]v_{avg} = \dfrac{2}{\dfrac{13}{80 \ m/s}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{v_{avg} =12.31 \ m/s}[/tex]

A bat at rest sends out ultrasonic sound waves at 46.2 kHz and receives them returned from an object moving directly away from it at 21.8 m/s, what is the received sound frequency?
f= ? Hz

Answers

Answer:

f" = 40779.61 Hz

Explanation:

From the question, we see that the bat is the source of the sound wave and is initially at rest and the object is in motion as the observer, thus;

from the Doppler effect equation, we can calculate the initial observed frequency as:

f' = f(1 - (v_o/v))

We are given;

f = 46.2 kHz = 46200 Hz

v_o = 21.8 m/s

v is speed of sound = 343 m/s

Thus;

f' = 46200(1 - (21/343))

f' = 43371.4285 Hz

In the second stage, we see that the bat is now a stationary observer while the object is now the moving source;

Thus, from doppler effect again but this time with the source going away from the obsever, the new observed frequency is;

f" = f'/(1 + (v_o/v))

f" = 43371.4285/(1 + (21.8/343))

f" = 40779.61 Hz

Answer:

5 Km/h

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance travelled = 10 Km

Time = 2 hours

Speed =?

Speed is simply defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it can be represented as:

Speed = distance travelled /time.

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed at which the duck is travelling as follow:

Distance travelled = 10 Km

Time = 2 hours

Speed =?

Speed = distance travelled /time.

Speed = 10 / 2

Speed = 5 Km/h

Thus, the duck is travelling at a speed of 5 Km/h

A student asks the following question:
"If all things with mass have a gravitational field, why doesn't this glue bottle and
stapler, sitting on the counter, stick together because of gravitational forces?"
Which classmate answers correctly?
Ashton says that the gravitational fields between the bottle and the stapler
cancel out because of Newton's 3rd Law.
O Natalie says that all things with mass have a gravitational field, but the force is
very weak and cannot be perceived around small objects.
Xavier says the bottle and the stapler are way too small to have a gravitational
field.
Katherine says the bottle and the stapler have a strong gravitational field, and
would move towards each other quickly if there were no friction on the counter.

Answers

Answer:

  Natalie says that all things with mass have a gravitational field, but the force is very weak and cannot be perceived around small objects.

Explanation:

The force due to gravity is proportional to the mass of the object and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between objects. The Earth is so massive that the force due to its gravity is much greater than the force between objects on the counter.

If there were no friction, the objects might move toward each other, depending on what other masses were near them tending to cause them to move in other directions.

Natalie's explanation is about the best.

Additional comment

The universal gravitational constant was determined by Henry Cavendish in the late 18th century using lead balls weighing 1.6 pounds and 348 pounds. His experiment was enclosed in a large wooden box to minimize outside effects. While these masses are somewhat greater than those of a glue bottle and stapler, the experiment shows the force of gravity between "small" objects can be measured.

Two spherical objects have masses of 100 kg and 200 kg. Their centers are

them.

Answers

Answer:

8.34 x 10⁻⁶N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass 1  = 100kg

Mass 2 = 200kg

Distance of separation  = 40cm = 0.4m

Unknown:

Gravitational force of attraction between them  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below which is derived from the Newton's law of universal gravitation:

           Fg  = [tex]\frac{G x mass 1 x mass 2}{d^{2} }[/tex]

G is the universal gravitation constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹

d is the separation

 Now;

  Fg = [tex]\frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 100 x 200}{0.4^{2} }[/tex]   = 8.34 x 10⁻⁶N

at what speed does the kg ball move ?

Answers

Answer:  Choice A) 2 meters per second

=======================================================

Explanation:

The smaller ball has momentum of

p = m*v

p = (1 kg)*(4 m/s)

p = 4 kg*m/s

All of this momentum transfers into the larger ball because the smaller ball comes to a complete stop.

For the larger ball, we have p = 4 and m = 2. Let's find v.

p = m*v

4 = 2*v

4/2 = v

2 = v

v = 2 m/s which is why the answer is choice A

The larger ball moves at a speed of 2 meters per second. The speed is cut in half compared to the smaller ball because the larger ball has more inertia (aka more mass), and therefore it takes more energy to move it. If you apply the same energy to each, then the smaller object moves faster.

John runs 3 km north then walks 2 km south. What is his total distance traveled and displacement?

Answers

Answer:

the total distance is 5km and the displacement is 1km

Explanation:

The total distance would be the addition of John running both ways so 3 km, 2 km.

However since he only walked back from a distance of 3 km to 2 km, he would be displaced 1 km because displacement is more like the position from the original point.

Think about 2 km as a positive value for the first part of the question and a negative value for the second part.

There are two different isotopes; X and Y, both contain the same number of radioactive substances. If sample X
has a longer half-life than Y, compare their rate of radioactive decay.
O A. Rate does not depend on half-life
B. Both of their rates are equal
O C. X has a smaller rate than Y
O D. X has a greater rate than Y​

Answers

Answer:

Half life refers to the time for 1/2 of the radioactive atoms to decay.

Suppose that X has a half life of 10 days and Y has a half life of 20 days

If both start out with 1000 radioactive atoms then after 20 days

X would have 250 radioactive atoms and Y would have 500 atoms

The rate of decay is greater for the shorter half life:

In the example given X  must have the smaller rate of decay because it has a longer half life.

A racecar makes 24 revolutions around a circular track of radius 2 meters in

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.15\: \mathrm{Hz}[/tex]

Explanation:

The frequency is of an object is given by [tex]f=\frac{1}{T}[/tex], where [tex]T[/tex] is the orbital period of the object.

Since the racecar makes 24 revolutions around a circular track in 162 seconds, it will take the racecar [tex]\frac{162}{24}=6.75\:\mathrm{s}[/tex] per revolution.

Therefore, the frequency of the racecar is [tex]\frac{1}{6.75}=\fbox{$0.15\:\mathrm{Hz}$}[/tex] (two significant figures).

The radius of the track is irrelevant in this problem.

To understand and apply the formula τ=Iα to rigid objects rotating about a fixed axis. To find the acceleration a of a particle of mass m, we use Newton's second law: F net=ma , where F net is the net force acting on the particle.To find the angular acceleration α of a rigid object rotating about a fixed axis, we can use a similar formula: τnet=Iα, where τnet=∑τ is the net torque acting on the object and I is its moment of inertia.
Part A:
Assume that the mass of the swing bar, is negligible. Find the magnitude of the angular acceleration α of the seesaw.
Express your answer in terms of some or all of the quantities m1, m2, l, as well as the acceleration due to gravity g.
Part B:
Now consider a similar situation, except that now the swing bar itself has mass mbar.Find the magnitude of the angular acceleration α of the seesaw.
Express your answer in terms of some or all of the quantities m1, m2, mbar, l, as well as the acceleration due to gravity g.

Answers

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing part of the question

In this problem, you will practice applying this formula to several situations involving angular acceleration. In all of these situations, two objects of masses m1 and m2 are attached to a seesaw. The seesaw is made of a bar that has length l and is pivoted so that it is free to rotate in the vertical plane without friction. Assume that the pivot is attached tot he center of the bar.

You are to find the angular acceleration of the seesaw when it is set in motion from the horizontal position. In all cases, assume that m1>m2.I

answer : part A = 2*[(M1 - M2)/(M1 + M2)]*g/L

              part A = attached below

Explanation:

Part A :

Assuming that mass of swing is negligible

α = T/I

where ; T = torque, I = inertia,

hence T =  L/2*9*(M1 - M2)

also;  I = [tex]M1*(L/2)^2 + M2*(L/2)^2[/tex]=  ( M1 + M2) * (L/2)^2

Finally the magnitude of the angular acceleration α

α = 2*[(M1 - M2)/(M1 + M2)]*g/L

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.69 times a second. A tack is stuck in the tire at a distance of 0.331 m from the rotation axis. Noting that for every rotation the tack travels one circumference, find the tack's tangential speed.

Answers

Answer:

the tack's tangential speed is  5.59 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

R = 0.331 m

wheel rotates 2.69 times a second which means, the wheel complete 2.69 revolutions in a second, so

ω = 2.69 rev/s × 2π/1s = 16.9 rad/s

using the relation of angular speed with tangential speed

tangential speed v of the tack is expressed as;

v = R × ω

so we substitute

v = 0.331 m × 16.9 rad/s

v = 5.59 m/s

Therefore, the tack's tangential speed is  5.59 m/s

The second law of thermodynamics imposes what limit on the efficiency of a heat engine?
A. The energy a heat engine must deposit in a cold reservoir is greater than or equal to the energy it extracts from a hot reservoir.
B. The energy a heat engine must deposit in a cold reservoir is greater than or equal to the energy extracted as useful work.
C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

Answers

Answer:

C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics says that "It is impossible to extract an amount of heat Q from a hot reservoir and use it all to do work W. Some amount of heat q must be exhausted to a cold reservoir."

This means that if we extract an amount of heat Q from the hot reservoir, the work W can never be exactly equal to Q, then there is a surplus of heat q that must be deposited in a cold reservoir.

Then we have the equation:

Q = W + q

From this we can conclude that the correct option is:

C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

There will be always some energy that is not transformed into work, and is deposited in a cold reservoir.

C. A heat engine must deposit some energy in a cold reservoir.

The second law of thermodynamics says that "It is impossible to extract an amount of heat Q from a hot reservoir and use it all to do work W. Some amount of heat q must be exhausted to a cold reservoir". This means that if we extract an amount of heat Q from the hot reservoir, the work W can never be exactly equal to Q, then there is a surplus of heat q that must be deposited in a cold reservoir. Then we have the equation: Q = W + q There will be always some energy that is not transformed into work, and is deposited in a cold reservoir.

Therefore, option C is correct.
