What is the velocity of a bicycle in meters per second if it travels 1 kilometer west in 4.1 minutes

1 answer:

6 0

1 kilometre is equal to 1000m
and 4.1 minutes is equal to 246 seconds
thus 1000/246 = 4.065 m/s
and the direction is towards the west

What constant acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 26 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 5 seconds

mr_godi [17]

2.25 m/s² of acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 26 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 5 seconds.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration is given as the ratio of velocity to time.
Mathematically, acceleration= velocity/time.

<h3>What is the acceleration required to increase the speed of a car from 26 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 5 seconds?</h3>

Here change in velocity of the car is 51-26= 25 mi/h.
As 1 mi/h = 0.45 m/s. So 25mi/h = 11.25 m/s.
Acceleration= (11.25m/s)/5s = 2.25 m/s².

Thus, we can conclude that the constant acceleration is 2.25 m/s².

1. Consider three objects: Object A is a hoop of mass m and radius r; Object B is a sphere

Zarrin [17]

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia ( $\frac{3}{2}mr^2$ )

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia ( $\frac{4}{5}mr^2$ )

Explanation:

The moments of inertia of the three objects are the following:

1) For a hoop of negligible thickness, it is

$I=MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the hoop in this problem,

M = m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=(m)(r)^2=mr^2$

2) For a solid sphere, the moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{2}{5}MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the sphere in this problem,

M = 2m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{2}{5}(2m)(r)^2=\frac{4}{5}mr^2$

3) For a disk of negligible thickness, the moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{1}{2}MR^2$

where M is its mass and R its radius. For the disk in this problem,

M = 3m

R = r

Therefore, its moment of inertia is

$I=\frac{1}{2}(3m)(r)^2=\frac{3}{2}mr^2$

So now we can answer the two questions:

a) Object C (the disk) has the greatest rotational inertia ( $\frac{3}{2}mr^2$ )

b) Object B (the sphere) has the smallest rotational inertia ( $\frac{4}{5}mr^2$ )

A bullet of mass 6.20 10-3 kg, moving at 1320 m/s impacts a tree stump and penetrates 11.00 cm into the wood before coming to re

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

F = -49.1 10³ N

Explanation:

Let's use the kinematics to find the acceleration the acceleration of the bullet that they tell us is constant

$v_{f}$ ² = v₀² + 2 a x

Since the bullet is at rest, the final speed is zero

x = 11.00 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.110 m

0 = v₀² + 2 a x

a = -v₀² / 2 x

a = -1320²/(2 0.110)

a = -7.92 10⁶ m / s²

With Newton's second law we find the force

F = m a

F = 6.20 10⁻³ (-7.92 10⁶)

F = -49.1 10³ N

The sign means that it is the force that the tree exerts to stop the bullet

If the atomic number of an atom is 4 and the mass number is 9, then how many electrons does it have

miskamm [114]

The atomic number of an atom says how many protons it has. This number cant change, since the atomic number is what gives elements their identities (in the periodic table, at least).
The mass number, on the other hand, says how many protons AND neutrons the atom has (so, the sum of P+ and N0). So, electrons have nothing to do with this number.
Atoms are neutrally charged, which means there has to be an equal number of positive and negative particles. The negative particles of an atom are its electrons, and since our atom has 4 protons, it must also have 4 electrons.

Red, green, and blue light rays each enter a drop of water from the same direction.Which light ray's path through the drop will

geniusboy [140]

Blue light will bend more than the others because it has a slightly greater refractive index. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and more energy, meaning it has to slow down more than the others when it hits the water.
