A particle travels along the curve from A to B in 5 s. It takes 8 s for it to go from B to C and then 10 s to go from C to A. Determine its average speed when it goes around the closed path.

5.1 m/s

Explanation:

The figure is missing: find it in attachment.

In order to find the average speed, we have to calculate the length of the total path, and divide it by the total time elapsed.

The curve from A to B is a quarter of a circle with a radius of r = 20 m, so its length is:

The path BC is the hypothenuse of a right triangle with sides equal to 20 m and 30 m, so its length is

Finally, the length of the path AC is the sum of the side of 30 m and the radius of the curve, so

So the total distance covered is

The total time elapsed is

So, the average speed is

bacteria that live on the ocean floor are sustained by phytoplankton. phytoplankton, microscopic marine photosynthetic organisms, have a vastly significant role to play not only in the marine food web of which they’re part of, but also on a more global scale. despite their infinitely small size in comparison to other marine organisms, these tiny creatures occupy an immensely important ecological niche: they are the foundation of the marine food web, and as primary producers, play key roles in supporting all other organisms in the marine environment, as well as in the regulation of the earth’s climate through the sequestration of carbon, oxygen production, and other related processes. phytoplankton account for roughly half of all global primary productivity; therefore, their significance extends far beyond the marine environment alone. there is an intriguing sense of irony in the realization that these tiny living beings that often live out their existence unnoticed and undetected by the rest of the world, have such a far-reaching impact on the lives of virtually all other living organisms on the planet, particularly on those in the marine environment. the world that we have become accustomed to has been and is continuously shaped by the workings of these miniscule yet vital “plants of the sea”.

hope this !
