A dragster runs the quarter mile in 8.96 s. What is the car's velocity (in ft/s) at the finish line?

lara [203]

The first thing you should know to answer this question is the following conversion:
1mi = 5280feet
We have then that the speed is:
v = ((1/4) * (5280)) / (8.96)
v = 147.32 feet / s
Answer:
the car's velocity (in ft / s) at the finish line is 147.32 feet / s

You could use newton’s second law to calculate the force applied to an object if you knew the objects mass and its _____.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

You could use newton’s second law to calculate the force applied to an object if you knew the objects mass and its <u>acceleration.</u>

Explanation:

By, Newtons second law, the force applied on an object directly varies with the acceleration caused and the mass of the object.

This is given by :

$F=m\ a$

Where $F$ represents force applied on the object , $m$ represents mass of the object and $a$ represents the acceleration.

In order to calculate force applied on object we require the mass of the object and its acceleration. The force can be calculated by finding the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

5. A cart with one fan on It blowing to the left and carrying one block produces the x vs t graph shown If this car were carryin

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Graph C

Explanation:

With the same force and more mass, the position in time will still be parabolic

i.e. x = ½at², but the rate of acceleration will be lower so the position curve will be broader.

Explain the importance of measurement<br>Physics.<br><br>

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Measurements are an important part of comparing things, as they provide the basis on comparing objects to other objects. Measurements allow us to recognize three hours and see how it's shorter than five hours, without having to observe the hours passing by themselves.

You drop a rock down a well that is 5.4 m deep. How long does it take the rock to hit the bottom of the well?

Natali5045456 [20]

Equation of motion:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

Since initial velocity is zero, the second term goes away:

$y_{f}=y_{o}+0+ \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}=y_{o}+\frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$y_{f}-y_{o}=5.4m$

$5.4m= \frac{1}{2} at^{2}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{a} = t^{2}$

$a = g = 9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2}}$

$\frac{2(5.4m) }{9.81 \frac{m}{ s^{2} } } = t^{2}$

$1.1 s^{2} = t^{2}$ $\sqrt{1.1 s^{2}} = \sqrt{t^{2}}$

<u><em> $t = 1.05s$ </em></u>
