Calculating the average speed is straightforward by using the formula involving distance and time:

average speed = distance / time

 

Thus, we have:

average speed = 4875 ft / 6.85 minutes

<span>average speed = 711.68 ft / min</span>

Answer:

The runner's approximate speed is around 8.08 miles per hour.

Explanation:

Provided data:

The runner covers 4875 ft

Time taken is 6.85 minutes.

Question:

What is the runner's average speed in miles per hour?

Solution:

Distance = Speed x time

Converting feet to miles:

=> Distance = 4875\times\frac{1}{5280} miles

=> Distance = 0.9232955 miles

Converting minutes to hours:

Time = 6.85 minutes

=> 6.85\times \frac{1}{60} hours

=> \frac{6.85}{60} = 0.1141667 hours.

Now, applying distance = speed x time

We have, 0.9232955 miles = speed x 0.1141667 hours

=> speed = \frac{0.9232955}{0.1141667}

=>speed = 8.08725749

Answer:

   C = 4,174 10³ V / m^{3/4},  E = 7.19 10² / ∛x,    E = 1.5  10³ N/C

Explanation:

In this problem, we are tasked with determining the constant value and the generated electric field.

We will begin with computing the constant C:

           V = C x^{4/3}

           C = V / x^{4/3}

            C = 220 / (11 10⁻²)^{4/3}

            C = 4,174 10³ V / m^{3/4}

Next, we will find the electric field by utilizing the formula:

            V = E dx

             E = dx / V

             E = ∫ dx / C x^{4/3}

            E = 1 / C  x^{-1/3} / (- 1/3)

            E = 1 / C (-3 / x^{1/3})

We consider the evaluation from the lower limit x = 0 where E = E₀ = 0 to the upper limit x = x, resulting in E = E:

            E = 3 / C     (0- (-1 / x^{1/3}))

            E = 3 / 4,174 10³   (1 / x^{1/3})

           E = 7.19 10² / ∛x

Substituting x = 0.110 cm:

          E = 7.19 10² /∛0.11

          E = 1.5  10³ N/C

A dog of mass 10 kg sits on a skateboard of mass 2 kg that is initially traveling south at 2 m/s. The dog jumps off with a veloc
inna [3103]

Answer:

17 m/s south

Explanation:

m_1 Mass of the dog = 10 kg

m_2 Mass of skateboard = 2 kg

v = Combined velocity = 2 m/s

u_1 Velocity of the dog = 1 m/s

u_2 Velocity of skateboard

In this scenario, linear momentum is conserved

(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1+m_2u_2=0\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(m_1+m_2)v+m_1u_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-\dfrac{(10+2)2+10\times 1}{2}\\\Rightarrow u_2=-17\ m/s

The speed of the skateboard post-dog jump will be 17 m/s south, considering north as the positive direction

A baseball is hit high into the upper bleachers of left field. Over its entire flight the work done by gravity and the work done
serg [3582]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the baseball ascends, gravitational forces as well as air resistance act downward, whereas the displacement is moving upward which results in an angle of 180° between the force and displacement. Therefore, the work done by both the gravitational force and air resistance is negative, confirming option (d) as accurate.
