This question was apprently selected from the "Sneaky Questions" category.

The store is 3 km from his home, and he walks there with a speed of 6 km/hr.  So it takes him (3 km) / (6 km/hr)  =  1/2 hour to get to the store.

That's 30 minutes.  So the whole part-(a.) of the question refers to only that part of the trip, and we don't care what happens once he reaches the store.  

a). Over the first 30 minutes of his travel, Greg walks 3.0 km on a straight road, and he ends up 3.0 km away from where he started.

Average speed = (distance/time) = (3.0 km) / (1/2 hour) = <em>6.0 km/hr</em>

Average velocity = (displacement/time) = (3.0 km) / (1/2 hour) = <em>6.0 km/hr</em>

There's probably some more questions in part-(b.) where you'd need to use Greg's return trip to find the answers, but johnaddy210 is only asking us for part-(a.).

If a 3-kg rabbit's leg muscles act as imperfectly elastic springs, how much energy will they hold if the rabbit lands from a hei
DiKsa [7]

Answer;

- 15 J

Explanation;

-Potential energy is defined as mechanical energy, stored energy, or energy caused by its position.

-For the gravitational force the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m /s² at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters.

Potential energy of the rabbit at the peak of its height is

PE = (3)(10)(0.5) = 15 J

(around 14.7 but because energy is lost, it is less than that)

Two sources emit beams of light of wavelength 550 nm. The light from source A has an intensity of 10 μW/m2, and the light from s
alexira [117]

Answer:

<em>A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

Explanation:

If we have two waves with the same wavelength, then their intensity is proportional to their power, or the energy per unit time.

We also know that the amount of photon present in an electromagnetic beam is proportional to the energy of the beam, hence the amount of beam per second is proportional to the power.

With these two facts, we can say that the intensity is a measure of the amount of photon per second in an electromagnetic beam. So we can say that <em>beam B carries twice as more power than beam A, or Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

If the mass of a material is 45 grams and the volume of the material is 8 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
Svet_ta [14]
The density of the substance is the ratio of its mass over the space it occupies. In mathematical equation, this can be expressed as,

        ρ = m / v

where ρ is density, m is mass, and v is volume. 

Substituting the known values from the given,
 
    ρ = (45 g) / (8 cm³)

     ρ = 5.625 g/cm³

<em>ANSWER: 5.625 g/cm³</em>

A certain humidifier operates by raising water to the boiling point and then evaporating it. Every minute 30 g of water at 20◦ C
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier = 77.78 KJ

Explanation:

Total energy per minute the humidifier required = Energy required to heat water to boiling point) + Energy required to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point) ----- (1)

Specific heat of water = 4190 \frac{J}{kg k}

The heat of vaporization is =  2256 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Mass = 0.030 kg

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point =  m c ( T_{2} - T_{1} )

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point = 0.030 × 4.19 × (100 - 20)

Energy (E_{1}) = 10.08 KJ

Energy needed to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point

E_{2} = 0.030 × 2256 = 67.68 KJ

Thus the total energy needed E =  E_{1} + E_{2}

E = 10.08 + 67.68

E = 77.78 KJ

This is the value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier.
