Answer:

Just in 1 dimension

Vpg = Vps + Vsg

Where

Vpg= relative to the ground

Vps= person relative to the ship

Vsg= ship relative to the ground

Vpg= Vps+Vsg ;

Vpg= 0.5 + 6

Vpg= 6,5 m/s

Consider a balloon of mass 0.030kg being inflated with a gas of density 0.54kg/m. What will be the volume of the balloon when it

Nonamiya [84]

the weight of the balloon is .030 * 10 = 0.3 N

the weight of the gas of volume v is 0.54*10 N

The lifting force of a volume of v m³ of displaced air is 1.29v N

so, we need

1.29*10*v = 0.3 + 0.54*10*v

or

1.29v = 0.03+0.54v

An automobile with an initial speed of 4.92 m/s accelerates uniformly at the rate of 3.2 m/s2 . Find the final speed of the car

Rudik [331]

Answer:19.32 m/s

Explanation:

Given

initial speed of car(u)=4.92 m/s

acceleration(a)= $3.2 m/s^2$

Speed of car after 4.5 s

using equation of motion

v=u+at

$v=4.92+3.2\times 4.5=4.92+14.4$

v=19.32 m/s

Displacement of the car after 4.5 s

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$19.32^2-4.92^2=2\times 3.2\times s$

$349.05=2\times 3.2\times s$

s=54.54 m

Which has more inertia a shopping cart full or groceries or an empty shopping cart?

morpeh [17]

I think that the shopping cart full of groceries has more inertia because it is the one with more tendency to do nothing or be still.

A ball starts from rest and undergoes uniform acceleration of 2.50m/s^2. What is the velocity of the ball 4s later?

erica [24]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 2.50 m/s²

t = 4 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (2.50 m/s²) (4 s) + 0 m/s

v = 10 m/s
