Answer: 266.0 s ≈ 4.4 min

Explanation:

1) Data

Wr = 43,576 N
F = 11,918 N
V = 713 m/s
t =?

2) Principles and formulas

Impulse and conservation of momentum

I = F.t = Δp

Δp = mΔv

3) Solution

m = Wr / g = 43,576N / 9.8 m/s^2 = 4,446.5 kg

Δp = mΔv => 4,446.5 kg * 713 m/s = 3,170,354,5 N*s

I = F.t = Δp  => t = Δp / F = 3,710,354.5 N*s / 11,918N = 266.0 s

t = 266.0 s ≈ 4.4 min

How is a force multiplied in a hydraulic<br> system?
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Pascal's law states that when there is an increase in pressure at any point in a confined fluid, there is an equal increase at every other point in the container. ... Applied to a more complex system below, such as a hydraulic car lift, Pascal's law allows forces to be multiplied.

What is the magnitude of your displacement when you follow directions that tell you to walk 225 m in one direction, make a 90° t
Gekata [30.6K]

Start by facing East. Your first displacement is the vector

<em>d</em>₁ = (225 m) <em>i</em>

Turning 90º to the left makes you face North, and walking 350 m in this direction gives the second displacement,

<em>d</em>₂ = (350 m) <em>j</em>

Turning 30º to the right would have you making an angle of 60º North of East, so that walking 125 m gives the third displacement,

<em>d</em>₃ = (125 m) (cos(60º) <em>i</em> + sin(60º) <em>j</em> )

<em>d</em>₃ ≈ (62.5 m) <em>i</em> + (108.25 m) <em>j</em>

The net displacement is

<em>d</em> = <em>d</em>₁ + <em>d</em>₂ + <em>d</em>₃

<em>d</em> ≈ (287.5 m) <em>i</em> + (458.25 m) <em>j</em>

and its magnitude is

|| <em>d</em> || = √[ (287.5 m)² + (458.25 m)² ] ≈ 540.973 m ≈ 541 m

f a car is traveling along a highway at a speed of 30 meters/second, what distance will it cover in one minute?
Klio2033 [76]
30meters/sec means 30 meters in one second so if there are 60 seconds in one minute we will say 60 times 30 or 30 × 60 which will make it 1800 metres or 1.8km
