Answer:

2.84 seconds

Explanation:

t = ?

distance = 125

Velocity origianal = 60 m/hr = 88 ft/s

AVERAGE velocity = 88/2 = 44 ft/s

44 t = 125

t = 125/44 = 2.84 s

A 1200-kg ore cart is rolling at 10.8 m/s across a flat friction-free surface. a crane suddenly drops of ore vertically into the

Andre45 [30]

The value of the final speed depends on the mass of the ore.

Let's call m the mass of the ore. We can solve the exercise by requiring the conservation of momentum, which must be the same before and after the ore is loaded.

Initially, there is only the cart, so the momentum is
$p=Mv=(1200 kg)(10.8 m/s)=12960 kg m/s$
After the ore is loaded, the new mass will be (1200 kg+m), and the new speed is $v_f$ . The momentum p is conserved, so it is still 12960 kg m/s. Therefore, we have
$p=12960 kg m/s =(1200 kg+m)v_f$
and so the final speed is
$v_f = \frac{12960 kg m/s}{1200 kg +m}$

Blizzard [7]

Answer: A.Validate and implement the results.

The final step in a forecasting system is to validate and implement the results. This can be similar to a presentation. After going through all the steps from the planning, researching, and gathering of data, making the forecast, validating and implementing the results will be the last thing that needs to be done.

A 10- kilogram block is pushed across a horizontal surface with a horizontal force of 20 N against a friction force of 10 N. The

Temka [501]

Answer:

$1m/s^2$

Explanation:

Mass of block=10 kg

Applied horizontal force =F=20 N

Friction force=f=10 N

We have to find the acceleration of block.

Net force=Applied horizontal force-friction force

$ma=F-f$

Where F= Horizontal force

f=Friction force

m=Mass of object

a=Acceleration of object

$10a=20-10=10$

$a=\frac{10}{10}=1 m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of the block= $1m/s^2$
