A motorist travels due North at 90 km/h for 2 hours. She changes direction and travels West at 60 km/for 1 hour.
a) Calculate the average speed of the motorist [4]
b) Calculate the average velocity of the motorist.

Answers

Answer:

a. 50km/hr.

b. 10km/hr

Explanation:

Average speed, which is calculated by dividing the total distance travelled by the time interval as follows:

Average speed = total distance travelled ÷ time

Average velocity is calculated by dividing the total displacement by the time interval as follows:

Average velocity = change in displacement (∆x) ÷ time (t)

According to this question, a motorist travels due North at 90 km/h for 2 hours. She then changes direction and travels West at 60 km/for 1 hour.

Total distance of this journey is 90 + 60 = 150

Total time taken = 1 + 2 = 3hours

Average speed = 150/3

= 50km/hr.

b.) Average velocity = x2 - x1/t

Average velocity = 90 - 60/3

= 30/3

= 10km/hr

In a science fiction novel two enemies, Bonzo and Ender, are fighting in outer spce. From stationary positions, they push against each other. Bonzo flies off with a velocity of 1.1 m/s, while Ender recoils with a velocity of -4.3 m/s. Determine the ratio Bonzo/mEnder of the masses of these two enemies.

Answers

Answer:

the ratio Bonzo/mEnder of the masses of these two enemies is 3.91

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Velocity of Bonzo [tex]V_{Bonzo[/tex] = 1.1 m/s

Velocity of Ender [tex]V_{Ender[/tex] = -4.3 m/s

the ratio Bonzo/mEnder of the masses of these two enemies = ?

Now, using the law of conservation of momentum.

momentum of both Bonzo and Ender are conserved

so

Initial momentum = final momentum

we have

0 = [tex]m_{Bonzo[/tex] × [tex]V_{Bonzo[/tex] + [tex]m_{Ender[/tex] × [tex]V_{Ender[/tex]

[tex]m_{Bonzo[/tex] × [tex]V_{Bonzo[/tex] = -[ [tex]m_{Ender[/tex] × [tex]V_{Ender[/tex]  ]

[tex]m_{Bonzo[/tex] / [tex]m_{Ender[/tex]  = -[ [tex]V_{Ender[/tex] / [tex]V_{Bonzo[/tex] ]

we substitute

[tex]m_{Bonzo[/tex] / [tex]m_{Ender[/tex]  = -[ -4.3 m/s / 1.1 m/s ]

[tex]m_{Bonzo[/tex] / [tex]m_{Ender[/tex]  = -[ -3.9090 ]

[tex]m_{Bonzo[/tex] / [tex]m_{Ender[/tex]  = 3.91

Therefore, the ratio Bonzo/mEnder of the masses of these two enemies is 3.91

A light-emitting diode (LED) connected to a 3.0 V power supply emits 440 nm blue light. The current in the LED is 11 mA , and the LED is 51 % efficient at converting electric power input into light power output. How many photons per second does the LED emit?

Answers

Answer:

3.73 * 10^16   photons/sec

Explanation:

power supply = 3.0 V

Emits 440 nm blue light

current in LED = 11 mA

efficiency of LED = 51%

Calculate the number of photons per second the LED will emit

first step : calculate the energy of the Photon

E = hc / λ

   =(  6.62 * 10^-34 * 3 * 10^8 )  / 440 * 10^-9

   = 0.0451 * 10^-17  J

Next :

Number of Photon =( power supply * efficiency * current ) / energy of photon

= ( 3 * 0.51 * 11 * 10^-3 ) / 0.0451 * 10^-17

= 3.73 * 10^16 photons/sec

Suppose that 2 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 28 cm to a length of 43 cm. (a) How much work is needed to stretch the spring from 33 cm to 35 cm

Answers

Answer:

0.035 J

Explanation:

Applying,

W = ke²/2.............. Equation 1

Where W = workdone by the stretching the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.

make k the subject of the equation

k = 2W/e²............... Equation 2

From the question

Given: W = 2 J, e = (43-28) = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

k = (2×2)/(0.15²)

k = 177.78 N/m

Hence, work need to stretch the spring from 33 cm to 35 cm

therefore,

e = 35-33 = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Substitute into equation 1

W = 177.78(0.02²)/2

W = 0.035 J

1. 0.625 g/mL

2. 2×10⁵ J

3. 5040 J

4. 75000 J

Explanation:

1. Determination of the density.

We'll begin by calculating the volume of the marble. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of water = 60 mL

Volume of water + Marble = 68 mL

Volume of marble =?

Volume of marble = (Volume of water + Marble) – (Volume of water)

Volume of marble = 68 – 60

Volume of marble = 8 mL

Finally, we shall determine the density of the marble. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of marble = 5 g

Volume of marble = 8 mL

Density of marble =?

Density = mass / volume

Density of marble = 5 / 8

Density of marble = 0.625 g/mL

2. Determination of the work done.

Mass (m) = 1000 Kg

Height (h) = 20 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Workdone (Wd) =?

The work done can be obtained as follow:

Wd = mgh

Wd = 1000 × 10 × 20

Wd= 2×10⁵ J

3. Determination of the potential energy.

Mass (m) = 12 Kg

Height (h) = 42 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Potential energy (PE) =?

The potential energy can be obtained as follow:

PE = mgh

PE = 12 × 10 × 42

PE = 5040 J

4. Determination of the kinetic energy.

Mass (m) = 1500 Kg

Velocity (v) = 10 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

The kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 1500 × 10²

KE = 750 × 100

KE = 75000 J

2. How much work can a 0.4 hp electric mixer do in 15 s?​

Answers

Answer:

1. Power = 5000 Watts

2. Workdone = 11185.5 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Distance = 18 m

Energy = 100 KJ = 100,000 Joules

Time = 20 seconds

To find the average power of the elevator;

Power = energy/time

Power = 100000/20

Power = 5000 Watts

2. Power = 0.4 HP

Time = 15 seconds

Conversion:

1 horsepower = 745.7 Watts

0.4 horsepower = 0.4 * 745.7 = 298.28 Watts

To find the amount of work done by the electric mixer;

Work done = power * time

Workdone = 745.7 * 15

Workdone = 11185.5 Joules

at this point?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

[tex]E_P= m \times g \times h[/tex]

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

m= 150 kg g= 9.8 m/s²h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m[/tex]

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

[tex]E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m[/tex]

[tex]E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2[/tex]

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

The young people involvedhelped to create magnificent pieces of art, but there were other, perhaps more importantbenefits. The young people learned to collaborate and get along with many differentkinds of people during the various steps required to paint and design a mural. Theylearned to be responsible, because they needed to follow a schedule to make sure themurals were completed. They also learned to take pride in their community. It is hard forany resident to see the spectacular designs and not feel proud to be a part of Philadelphia.Take a walk around some of the poorest neighborhoods in Philadelphia,neighborhoods full of broken windows and littered front steps, and you will find beautifulworks of art on the sides and fronts of buildings. Of course the murals are not just in poorneighborhoods, but more affluent ones as well.Special buses take tourists to different parts of the city to see the various murals, whichrange from huge portraits of historical heroes, to cityscapes, to scenes depicting thediverse ethnic groups that call Philadelphia home.As a result of its success, the mural program created by Jane Golden has nowbecome the nations largest public art program and a model for other cities throughout thecountry seeking to help troubled youth.1Questions1) The main focus of the passage isA. an art program designed to help troubled youthB. the many tourists who come to Philadelphia to see muralsC. the reasons why Philadelphia is a unique cityD. how Jane Golden came up with the idea to start a mural program2) As used in paragraph1, the phrase it is said suggests that the author isA. knowingly misleading the readerB. using a quote from someone elseC. referring to something that is widely believed, but may be untrueD. referring to something that he or she does not personally believe3) As used in paragraph 1, the phrase with the exception of Rome means thatA.
