No official standard exists for extinguisher-cylinder colors. that said, a red cylinder is typically associated with which type

of extinguisher?

Fire extinguishers are typically red. Goes along with the red fire trucks and red being a color of emergency. While there isn't any standard, if we decided to change the colors of the fire extinguisher, people would be very confused and given the context, it could cost people's lives, so I'm thinking red will be the color of fire extinguishers for a while to come.

A certain car traveling in a straight line path has a velocity of +10.0 m/s at some instant. after 3.00 s, its velocity is +6.00
makvit [3.9K]
The formula is:
v = v o + a t
6 = 10 + 3 * a
3 a = 10 - 6
a = 4 : 3
a =  - 1.33 m/s² ( because the car slows down )
Answer: The average acceleration of the car is - 1.33 m/s²

A train travels 79 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 77 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed?
koban [17]
Average speed=total distance traveled/time. Total distance=the sum of the two short distances=79*2+77*3=389 km. Total time used to travel is 2+3=5 hr. Average speed is 389/5=77.8 km/hr.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

a

The  radial acceleration is  a_c  = 0.9574 m/s^2

b

The horizontal Tension is  T_x  = 0.3294 i  \ N

The vertical Tension is  T_y  =3.3712 j   \ N

Explanation:

The diagram illustrating this is shown on the first uploaded

From the question we are told that

   The length of the string is  L =  10.7 \ cm  =  0.107 \ m

     The mass of the bob is  m = 0.344 \  kg

     The angle made  by the string is  \theta  =  5.58^o

The centripetal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

         F  =  \frac{mv^2}{r}

Now From the diagram we see that this force is equivalent to

     F  =  Tsin \theta where T is the tension on the rope  and v is the linear velocity  

     So

          Tsin \theta  =   \frac{mv^2}{r}

Now the downward normal force acting on the bob is  mathematically represented as

          Tcos \theta = mg

So

       \frac{Tsin \ttheta }{Tcos \theta }  =  \frac{\frac{mv^2}{r} }{mg}

=>    tan \theta  =  \frac{v^2}{rg}

=>   g tan \theta  = \frac{v^2}{r}

The centripetal acceleration which the same as the radial acceleration  of the bob is mathematically represented as

      a_c  =  \frac{v^2}{r}

=>  a_c  = gtan \theta

substituting values

     a_c  =  9.8  *  tan (5.58)

     a_c  = 0.9574 m/s^2

The horizontal component is mathematically represented as

     T_x  = Tsin \theta = ma_c

substituting value

   T_x  = 0.344 *  0.9574

    T_x  = 0.3294 \ N

The vertical component of  tension is  

    T_y  =  T \ cos \theta  = mg

substituting value

     T_ y  =  0.344 * 9.8

      T_ y  = 3.2712 \ N

The vector representation of the T in term is of the tension on the horizontal and the tension on the vertical is  

         

       T  = T_x i  + T_y  j

substituting value  

      T  = [(0.3294) i  + (3.3712)j ] \  N
