A cheetah is known to be the fastest mammal on Earth, at least for short runs. Cheetahs have been observed running a distance of

5.50 × 102 m with an average speed of 1.00 × 102 km/h.
How long would it take a cheetah to cover this distance at this speed?

The cheetah needs 197.8 seconds to complete the 5.50 *100 m distance.

The distance traveled divided by the time taken is the most popular formula for calculating average speed. The average speed is determined by dividing the whole distance by the total time required to complete the distance. The other calculation, provided you have the initial and final speeds, adds them together and divides by 2.20. calculating the time needed for a cheetah to travel 5.50 102 meters.

10 km/h average speed is equal to 10 / 3.6, or 2.78 m/s.

Dist. = 5.50 102

Time =?

average speed = time / distance

time=5.50 x 100/ 2.78

Time = 197.8 s

Therefore, it takes a cheetah 197.8 seconds to travel 5.50 102 meters.

How does the thickness of wood affect its stability

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Making the lumber thick will make it stiff, which seems good. On the other hand, with thicker lumber, differences in expansion on the two faces have more leverage to make the lumber move.

A 19 g bullet is fired into the bob of a ballistic pendulum of mass 1.3 kg. When the bob is at its maximum height, the strings m

katovenus [111]

Answer:

217.43298 m/s

Explanation:

$m_1$ = Mass of bullet = 19 g

$m_2$ = Mass of bob = 1.3 kg

L = Length of pendulum = 2.3 m

$\theta$ = Angle of deflection = 60°

u = Velocity of bullet

Combined velocity of bullet and bob is given by

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2aL(1-cos\theta)+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times (1-cos60)+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=3.13209\ m/s$

As the momentum is conserved

$m_1u=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow u=\frac{(m_1+m_2)v}{m_1}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{(0.019+1.3)\times 3.13209}{0.019}\\\Rightarrow v=217.43298\ m/s$

The speed of the bullet is 217.43298 m/s

An object of mass 2.0 kg is attached to the top of a vertical spring that is anchored to the floor. The unstressed length of the

poizon [28]

Answer:

The value is $A = 0.014 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the object is $m = 2.0 \ kg$

The unstressed length of the string is $l = 0.08 \ m$

The length of the spring when it is at equilibrium is $l_e = 5.9 \ cm = 0.059 \ m$

The initial speed (maximum speed)of the spring when given a downward blow $v = 0.30 \ m/s$

Generally the maximum speed of the spring is mathematically represented as

$u = A * w$

Here A is maximum height above the floor (i.e the maximum amplitude)

and $w$ is the angular frequency which is mathematically represented as

$w = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

So

$u = A * \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

=> $A = u * \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

Gnerally the length of the compression(Here an assumption that the spring was compressed to the ground by the hammer is made) by the hammer is mathematically represented as

$b = l -l_e$

=> $b = 0.08 - 0.05 9$

=> $b = 0.021 \ m$

Generally at equilibrium position the net force acting on the spring is

$k * b - mg = 0$

=> $k * 0.021 - 2 * 9.8 = 0$

=> $k = 933 \ N/m$

So

$A = 0.30 * \sqrt{\frac{2}{933} }$

=> $A = 0.014 \ m$

I have a special thermos that has a vacuum chamber between my hot soup and its outside wall. Because my soup is isolated from it

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

C. My soup will cool down because of radiation.

Explanation:

Since, there is vacuum between hot soup and its outside wall, then heat can not flow through conduction and convection.

The heat then only flows through radiation.

Therefore, the soup will not cool down because of convection or conduction by because of radiation.

Phantasy [73]

Greetings!

The correct answer choice is Choice 4.

<em>Why?</em>

In a scientific experiment the only thing being changed is the independent variable. Everything else should stay the same.

In this experiment, the independent variable is the amount of sunlight each plant should receive. <em>Here's a tip</em>- when looking for and independent variable look for whats being changed on purpose.

Hope this helps!
