Answer:

t = 0.33h = 1200s

x = 18.33 km

Explanation:

If the origin of coordinates is at the second car, you can write the following equations for both cars:

car 1:

x=x_o+v_1t    (1)

xo = 10 km

v1 = 55km/h

car 2:

x'=v_2t    (2)

v2 = 85km/h

For a specific value of time t the positions of both cars are equal, that is, x=x'. You equal equations (1) and (2) and solve for t:

x=x'\\\\x_o+v_1t=v_2t\\\\(v_2-v_1)t=x_o\\\\t=\frac{x_o}{v_2-v_1}

t=\frac{10km}{85km/h-55km/h}=0.33h*\frac{3600s}{1h}=1200s

The position in which both cars coincides is:

x=(55km/h)(0.33h)=18.33km

Sandy is whirling a ball attached to a string in a horizontal circle over his head. If Sandy doubles the speed of the ball, what
jeka57 [31]

The tension in the string B) It quadruples.

Explanation:

The ball is in uniform circular motion in a horizontal circle, so the tension in the string is providing the centripetal force that keeps the ball in circular motion. So we can write:

T= m\frac{v^2}{r}

where:

T is the tension in the string

m is the mass of the ball

v is the speed of the ball

r is the radius of the circle (the lenght of the string)

In this problem, we are told that the speed of the ball is doubled, so

v' = 2v

Substituting into the previous equation, we find the new tension in the string:

T' = m \frac{(2v)^2}{r}=4(m\frac{v^2}{r})=4T

Therefore, the tension in the string will quadruple.

A man does 4,780 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.70 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 25.5 m.
wolverine [178]

Answer:

(A) Velocity will be 1.88 m/sec

(b) Force will be 187.45 N

Explanation:

We have given work done = 4780 j

Distance d = 25.5 m

(A) Mass of the truck m = m=2.70\times 10^3kg

We know that kinetic energy is given  by

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

So v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4780}{2.7\times 10^3}}=1.88m/sec

(B) We know that work done is given by

W = Fd

So F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{4780}{25.5}=187.45N

A snail travels 300 cm in 4 minutes.calculate speed of snail in m/s
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

\frac{0.0125m}{s}

Explanation:

In order to solve this question we need to know that  speed = \frac{distance}{time}. Then we need to convert 4 minutes into seconds and cm into m. We can do that by multiplying the number of minutes by 60 (because there is 60 seconds in one minute) and dividing the number of cm by 100 (because there is 100 cm in one m). So.......

4min = 4 x 60s = 240s

300cm = 300/100 m = 3m

Now we know that distance = 300m, and that the time = 4min = 240s ⇒

⇒ speed=\frac{distance}{time} = \frac{3m}{240s} = \frac{0.0125m}{s}
