The course to be likely taken by a mechanical engineer in college is agriculture operations (option A).

<h3>What is engineering?</h3>

Engineering is application of mathematics and the physical sciences to the needs of humanity and the development of technology.

Mechanical engineering is a subfield of engineering concerned with designing and building machines and mechanical systems.

A mechanical engineer is an individual who specialises in the field of mechanical engineering. This means that a mechanical engineer is expected to be vast in the knowledge of designing and building machines for operations in other fields.

One of those fields that a mechanical engineer can build or design machine for is agriculture. Therefore, agriculture operations is the most likely course to be taken by a mechanical engineer in college.

A falling skydiver has a mass of 105 kg. What is the magnitude of the skydiver's acceleration when the upward force of air resis

LenKa [72]

F-free = m*g - F_air = m*a

F_air = 1.2 * m

a= (105 kg * 9.8 m.s^2 - 5*105) / 105 kg

a = 9.3 m/s

What type of plate boundary decreases the amount of the Earth's crust?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Convergent.

Explanation:

Just as oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges, it is destroyed in subduction zones. Subduction is the important geologic process in which a tectonic plate made of dense lithospheric material melts or falls below a plate made of less-dense lithosphere at a convergent plate boundary.

The average speed of a greyhound bus from lansing to detroit is 104.5 km/h. on the return trip from detroit to lansing the avera

Nitella [24]

The average speed of the bus from Lansing to Detroit is
$v_1 = 104.5 km/h$
while the average speed of the bus from Detroit to Lansing is
$v_2 =56.2 km/h$

The distance covered by the bus in the two trips is the same (the distance between the two cities), therefore, the average speed of the round trip can be calculated as the mean of the two speeds:
$v= \frac{v_1+v_2}{2}= \frac{104.5+56.2}{2}=80.35 km/h$

A 2 kg book is pushed from rest to a final velocity of 3 m/s. The book travels 2 m. How much force was the book pushed with

Studentka2010 [4]

Explanation:

first you have to find accelerarion, it is given that the initial velocity(u) is 3 m/s, distance travelled(s) be 2m finall it came to rest so final velocity be 0m/s

now using the 3rd law of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

0=9+2a2

a= -9/4m/s^2

now force=mass×accelration

=2kg×(-9/4)m/s^2

=4.5 N

4.5 newton force applied on the book!

Supposing d(t) is known to have value D,

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The procedure is: solve the quadratic equation for $t$ .

Explanation:

This question assumes uniformly accelerated motion, for which the distance d a particle travels in time t is given by the general equation:

$d(t)=d_0+v_0t+at^2/2$

That is a quadratic equation, where the independent variable is the time $t$ .

Thus, the procedure that will find the time t at which the distance value is known to be D is to solve the quadratic equation for $t$ .

To solve it you start by changing the equation to the general form of the quadratic equations, rearranging the terms:

$(a/2)t^2+v_0t+(d_0-D)=0$

Some times that equation may be solved by factoring, and always it can be solved by using the quadratic formula:

$t=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

Where:

$a=-a/2\\ \\ b=v_0\\ \\ c=d_0-D$

That may have two solutions. Some times one of the solution makes no physical sense (for example time cannot be negative) but others the two solutions are valid.
