A car is traveling along a straight road at a velocity of 30m/s when its engine cuts off. For the next ten seconds, the car slow

s down, and its average acceleration is a₁. For the next five seconds, the car slows down further, and its average acceleration is a₂. The ratio of the average acceleration values is a₁/a₂=1.5. Find the velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval.​

The velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval is 15a₂ + 30.

<h3>Initial velocity of the car</h3>

v = u + at

after 10 seconds;

v = 30 + 10a₁  --(1)

after 5 seconds

v₂ = v + 5a₂ ---- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together

v₂ = 30 + 10a₁ + 5a₂

but a₁/a₂=1.5

a₁ = 1.5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 10(1.5a₂) + 5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 15a₂ + 5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 20a₂

from equation (2), v₂ = v + 5a₂

v + 5a₂ = 30 + 20a₂

v = 15a₂ + 30

Thus, the velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval is 15a₂ + 30.

A woman falls to the ground while wearing a parachute. The air resistance on the parachute of the parachute is 500N. If the woma
scoundrel [369]

The gravitational force on the woman is A) 500 N

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the woman during her fall:

  • The force of gravity, F_G, acting downward
  • The air resistance, F_D, acting upward

According to Newton's second law, the net force acting on the woman is equal to the product between the woman's mass and her acceleration:

\sum F=ma

where m is the mass of the woman and a her acceleration.

The net force can be written as

\sum F = F_G - F_D

Also, we know that the woman falls at a constant velocity (5 m/s), this means that her acceleration is zero:

a=0

Combining the equations together, we get:

F_G-F_D = 0

which means that the magnitude of the gravitational force is equal to the magnitude of the air resistance:

F_G=F_D=500 N

valkas [14]
<span>The shortening velocity refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. Maximal shortening velocity is only attained with a minimal load. With a light load, the shortening velocity is at its Maximal shortening velocity. When the weight is heavy, the speed in which the muscle lifts the weight decreases in speed at a slower velocity.</span>

How can you tell that this paragraph uses a quotation?<br> Check all that apply?
Debora [2.8K]

Answer- There are two reasons that we know quotations have been used first is the use of of name of the person who quoted it and secondly the quotation is written inside the quotation marks.

Explanation- Quotation is nothing but using a line that has been already quoted by someone somewhere. Such sentences are normally written inside quotation marks. In the above given paragraph the name of the person who quotes the sentence is also given hence we know that our quotation has been used.
