Gerard need to change the Acceleration.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the distance travelled by an object in  a unit time.

Mathematically ,

Speed =\frac{Distance}{Time}

Here the given values are:

Distance = 110m and  time = 5.4 s

Speed = \frac{110}{5.4} = 20 m/s

For increasing the speed he need to change the acceleration.

Which is define as the  rate at which velocity changes with time, in terms of both speed and direction.

Any change in the velocity of an object results in an acceleration , increasing speed (what people usually mean when they say acceleration).

What is the purpose of using significant figures? How does it relate to accuracy, precision, resolution, and uncertainty?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

#see solution for details

Explanation:

-Uncertainty refers to an estimate of the amount by which a result may differ from this value,

-Precision refers to how closely repeated measurements agree with each other.

-Accuracy refers to how closely a measured value agrees with the correct value.

-The number of significant figures is the number of digits believed to be correct by the person doing the measuring. Therefore, choosing the correct number of significant figures reduces the deviation from the point of accuracy/uncertainty or precision and thereby reducing margin of error in the ensuing calculations.

Two spectators at a soccer game in Montjuic Stadium see, and a moment later hear, the ball being kicked on the playing field. Th
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

a) The distance of spectator A to the player is 79.2 m

b) The distance of spectator B to the player is 43.9 m

c) The distance between the two spectators is 90.6 m

Explanation:

a) Knowing the time it takes the sound to reach both spectators, we can calculate their position relative to the player, using this equation:

x = v * t

where:

x = position of the spectators

v = speed of sound

t = time

Then, the position for spectator A relative to the player is:

x = 343 m/s * 0.231 s = 79.2 m

b)For spectator B:

x = 343 m/s * 0.128 s

x = 43.9 m

The distance of spectator A and B to the player is 79.2 m and 43.9 m respectively.

c) To calculate the distance between the spectators, please see the attached figure. Notice that the distance between the spectators is the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by the sightline of both. We already know the longitude of the two sides. Then, using Pythagoras theorem:

(Distance AB)² = A² + B²

(Distance AB)² = (79.2 m)² + (43.9 m)²

Distance AB = 90. 6 m

Find the voltage across the 15 Q resistor.<br> [?] V<br><br> No links please
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

same idea as before Liam,  first, find the parallel resistance in 35 || 20

(35*20)  / (35+20)  = 700 / 55  = 12.727272 ohms

now add the  12.727272 + 15 = 27.727272 ohms total resistance

V = IR

10 = I *    27.727272

10 / 27.727272 = I

0.360655 = I

V = IR  (again, but across the 15 ohm resistor)

V =     0.360655 * 15      

V = 5.4098
