Koto's average velocity was 4.5 m/s. She started at her house and traveled 15000 meters north, 5000 meters east, 20000 meters south, and then 5000 meters west. What was the time of her trip? (There are 60 seconds in 1 minute.) I'm confused, I just want to know why you subtract the meters she traveled 45000 not 5000, I know it has to do with the directions but why would you subtract them if she already traveled them.

Arefrigerator uses r-134a as the working fluid and operates on the ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle except for the compression process. the refrigerant enters the evaporator at 120 kpa with a quality of 34 percent and leaves the compressor at 70°c. if the compressor consumes 450 w of power, determine (a) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, (b) the condenser pressure, and (c) the cop of the refrigerator. (0.00644 kg/s, 800 kpa, 2.03)

Awelder using a tank of volume 7.50×10^-2 m^3 fills it with oxygen (with a molar mass of 32.0 g/mol ) at a gauge pressure of 3.30×10^5 pa and temperature of 37.1 ∘c. the tank has a small leak, and in time some of the oxygen leaks out. on a day when the temperature is 23.1 ∘c, the gauge pressure of the oxygen in the tank is 2.00×10^5 pa . a) find the initial mass of oxygen. b) find the mass of oxygen that has leaked out.

If a car is traveling on the highway at a constant velocity, the force that pushes the car forward must be a. equal to the weight of the car. b. less than the force of friction exerted upon the car. c. equal to the force of friction exerted upon the car. d. greater than the weight of the car.
