V o = 6 m/s,
t = 2 s
v = 10 m/s
v = v o + a t
a t = v - v o
a = ( v - v o ) / t 
a = ( 10 m/s - 6 m/s ) / 2 s = 4 m/s / 2 s = 2 m/s²
Answer:
The runner`s acceleration is 2 m/s².

Answer:

52.5°C

Explanation:

The final enthalpy is determined from energy balance where initial enthalpy and specific volume are obtained from A-12 for the given pressure and state

mh1 + W = mh2

h2 = h1 + W/m

h1 + Wα1/V1

242.9 kJ/kg + 2.35.0.11049kJ/ 0.35/60kg

=287.4 kJ/kg

From the final enthalpy and pressure the final temperature is obtained A-13 using interpolation

i.e T2 = T1 + T2 -T1/h2 -h1(h2 - h1)

= 50°C + 60 - 50/295.15 - 284.79

(287.4 - 284.79)°C

= 52.5°C

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

(a) a = 2.44 m/s²

(b) s = 63.24 m

Explanation:

(a)

We will use the second equation of motion here:

s = v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where,

s = distance covered = 47 m

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

t = time taken = 6.2 s

a = acceleration = ?

Therefore,

47\ m = (0\ m/s)(6.2\ s)+\frac{1}{2}a(6.2\ s)^2\\\\a = \frac{2(47\ m)}{(6.2\ s)^2}

<u>a = 2.44 m/s²</u>

<u></u>

(b)

Now, we will again use the second equation of motion for the complete length of the inclined plane:

s = v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where,

s = distance covered = ?

vi = initial speed = 0 m/s

t = time taken = 7.2 s

a = acceleration = 2.44 m/s²

Therefore,

s = (0\ m/s)(6.2\ s)+\frac{1}{2}(2.44\ m/s^2)(7.2\ s)^2\\\\

<u>s = 63.24 m</u>
