On a highway, a car is driven 80. kilometersduring the first 1.00 hour of travel,
50. kilometers during the next 0.50 hour, and
40. kilometers in the final 0.50 hour. What is the
car’s average speed for the entire trip?
(1) 45 km/h (3) 85 km/h
(2) 60. km/h (4) 170 km/h

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The average speed of the car for the entire trip can be calculate by using:

v=(S)/(t)

where S is the total distance covered by the car, and t is the total time taken.


The total distance travelled by the car is:

S=80 km+50 km+40 km=170 km

while the total time taken is:

t=1.00 h+0.50 h+0.50 h=2.00 h


so, the average speed of the car is:

v=(S)/(t)=(170 km)/(2.00 h)=85 km/h


so, the correct answer is (3) 85 km/h.
Answer 2
Answer:

The average speed of the car for entire trip is \boxed{85\text{ km/h}}.

Further Explanation:

Speed is the measure of a quantity of an object the tells how fast the object is moving in the other words we can define the speed that it is the distance covered by an body divided by the time taken to cover that distance. It is a quantity with only magnitude so it is a scalar quantity.

The average speed is defined as the sum of all the distance traveled by the body divided by the sum of time taken to travel that distance.

Given:

The distance travel by the car is 80\text{ km} for 1.00\text{ hours}.

The distance travel by the car is 50\text{ km} for 0.50\text{ hours}.

The distance travel by the car is 40\text{ km} for .

0.50\text{ hours}.

Concept:

The expression for the average can be written as:

S =\frac{{{\text{sum of distances }}}}{{{\text{sum of time}}}}    …… (1)

The distance travel by the car is 80\text{ km} for 1.00\text{ hours}, distance travel by the car is 50\text{ km} for 0.50\text{ hours} and distance travel by the car is 40\text{ km} for 0.50\text{ hours}.

The sum of the distance is:

\begin{aligned}D&=80{\text{ km}}+{\text{50 km}}+40{\text{ km}}\n&=170{\text{ km}}\end{aligned}

The sum of time taken to travel the distance is:

\begin{aligned}t&=1.00{\text{ h}} + 0.50{\text{ h}} + 0.50{\text{ h}}\n&=2.00{\text{ h}}\end{aligned}

Substitute 170\text{ km} for total distance and 2.00\text{ h} for total time in equation (1).

\begin{aligned}S&=\frac{{{\text{170 km}}}}{{2.00{\text{ h}}}}\n&=85{\text{ km/h}}\end{aligned}

Therefore, the average speed of the car for entire trip is \boxed{85\text{ km/h}}.

Animals in cold climates often depend on two layers of insulation: a layer of body fat [of thermal conductivity 0.200W/(m⋅K) ] surrounded by a layer of air trapped inside fur or down. We can model a black bear (Ursus americanus) as a sphere 1.60m in diameter having a layer of fat 3.90cm thick. (Actually, the thickness varies with the season, but we are interested in hibernation, when the fat layer is thickest.) In studies of bear hibernation, it was found that the outer surface layer of the fur is at 2.80∘C during hibernation, while the inner surface of the fat layer is at 30.9∘C a) What should the temperature at the fat-inner fur boundary be so that the bear loses heat at a rate of 51.4W ? b) How thick should the air layer (contained within the fur) be so that the bear loses heat at a rate of 51.4W ?

Assuming the same current is running through two separate coils, why is it easier to thrust a magnet into a wire coil with one loop than one with four loops?.

Answers

The magnetic field strength in a coil is directly proportional to the number of turns, or loops, in the coil.
Therefore, when there are four loops instead of one, the magnetic field strength has increased four times, making it harder to push the magnet in.

I am really struggling with this question because I can't find anything on aphelion and perihelion, it's not a topic we went over because it is an extra assignment. 4. How far away from the sun was Mercury at aphelion? On what day did aphelion occur?
5. How far away from the sun was Mercury at perihelion? On what day did it occur?
6. How many days elapsed between aphelion and perihelion? What percent of the time to complete one orbit was this?
7. What was the average radius of Mercury in its orbit that you calculated? How does it compare to the accepted value of 0.387 AU? Calculate the percent error using the following equation. Show your work.

If someone could explain it to me I would really appreciate it!

Answers


I have a strange hunch that there's some more material or previous work
that goes along with this question, which you haven't included here.

I can't easily find the dates of Mercury's extremes, but here's some of the
other data you're looking for:

Distance at Aphelion (point in it's orbit that's farthest from the sun):
69,816,900 km
0. 466 697 AU

Distance at Perihelion(point in it's orbit that's closest to the sun):
46,001,200 km
0.307 499 AU

Perihelion and aphelion are always directly opposite each other in
the orbit, so the time between them is  1/2  of the orbital period.

Mercury's Orbital period = 87.9691 Earth days

1/2 (50%) of that is  43.9845  Earth days

The average of the aphelion and perihelion distances is

     1/2 ( 69,816,900 + 46,001,200 ) = 57,909,050 km
or
     1/2 ( 0.466697 + 0.307499) = 0.387 098  AU
 
This also happens to be 1/2 of the major axis of the elliptical orbit.
