A speedboat increases its speed from 14.5 m/s to 29.3 m/s in a distance of 172 m.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s

Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s

Distance, S = 172m

a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V² = U² + 2aS

Substituting into the formula

29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172

858.49 = 210.25 + 344a

344a = 858.49 - 210.25

344a = 648.24

a = 648.24/344

Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. To find the time;

We would use the first equation of motion;

V = U + at

29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t

1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5

1.88t = 14.8

Time, t = 14.8/1.88

Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to

Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

F = $5.20 \times 10^{5}$ N

g = 9.8 m/s

radius = $\frac{diameter}{2}$

= $\frac{30 cm}{2}$ = 15 cm = 0.15 m (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

F = $\rho \times g \times h \times A$

or, h = $\frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}$

h = $\frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}$

= 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.

The standard normal curve is not symmetrical. <br> a. True<br> b. False

FrozenT [24]

Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;

Symmetrical distribution, commonly known as symmetric distribution or normal distribution, is typically unimodal, meaning it shows only one peak in graph form.

It is a type of distribution where the left side of the distribution mirrors the right side. By definition, a symmetric distribution is never a skewed distribution.

All normal distributions are symmetric and have bell-shaped density curves with a single peak.
