A man uses a lever jack to lift a 2.00 x 10^3 kg car to change a tire. Each stroke of the jack lifts the car a distance of 5.00

x 10^-3 m. The vertical displacement of the handle is 0.75 m for each stroke. What is the mechanical advantage of the jack?

B) 150
C) 1
D) 200

Figure A shows cross section of a land form or rock. In Figure B, compression stress is applied on it. When compression stresses are applied on a rock, it squeezes the rock cause fold or fracture. The fault formed by compression stress is called thrust fault. If the compression stresses/ force continue to act on a rock it will converge and form thrust fault. In Figure C, tension stresses is applied on the rock. When a tension stress applied on a rock it deforms/ lengthen. There are three type of deformations occur due to tension stresses. One is elastic deformation, in which, rock retains it original shape when force/stresses are removed. Second is plastic deformation, in which rock lengthen and change occur permanently. Third type of deformation is result into fracture or breaking of rock. In Figure C, shear stresses are applied on rock. Shear stresses are applied with equal magnitude but in opposite direction. It cause breaking of rock.

John walks 1.00 km north, then turns right and walks 1.00 km east. His speed is 1.50 m/s during the entire stroll.a) What is the

avanturin [10]

Answer:

(a) 1.414 km

(b) 1.06 m/s

Explanation:

(a) For John:

Distance = 1 km north and then 1 km east

Speed = 1.5 m/s

total distance traveled = 1 + 1 = 2 km = 2000 m

Time taken to travel = Distance / speed

t = 2000 / 1.5 = 1333.3 seconds

Displacement = $\sqrt{1^{2}+1^{2}}=1.414 km$

(b) For jane :

Time is same as john = 1333.33 second

Distance = 1.414 km = 1414 m

Speed = distance / time = 1414 / 1333.33 = 1.06 m/s

You are traveling on an interstate highway at the posted speed limit of 70 mph when you see that the traffic in front of you has

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:8.75 s,

136.89 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity $=70 mph\approx 31.29 m/s$

velocity after 5 s is $30 mph\approx 13.41 m/s$

Therefore acceleration during these 5 s

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\frac{13.41-31.29}{5}=-3.576 m/s^2$

therefore time required to stop

v=u+at

here v=final velocity =0 m/s

initial velocity =31.29 m/s

$0=31.29-3.576\times t$

$t=\frac{31.29}{3.576}=8.75 s$

(b)total distance traveled before stoppage

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

$0^2-31.29^2=2\times (-3.576)\cdot s$

s=136.89 m

What is dark energy?

expeople1 [14]

Dark energy is a theoretical repulsive energy that causes the acceleration to the expansion of the universe. Among the choices, the nearest answer would be D. Dark energy can also be defined as a new form of energy, that is a dynamic field that fills up space but has an effect opposite to that of normal energy.

A bike rider pedals with constant acceleration to reach a velocity of 7.8 m/s over a time of 4.2 s. during the period of acceler

Artyom0805 [142]

To calculate the initial velocity of the bike, we use the following equation

$d=\frac{1}{2} (u+v)t$ .

or

$u=\frac{2d}{t} -v$

Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity, t is the time and d is the distance covered by bike.

Given, $u =7.8 m/s$ , $d= 19 m$ and $t=4.2 s$ .

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

$u = \frac{2 \times 19}{4.2 \ s} -7.8 m/s = 9.05 \ m/s - 7.8 \ m/s \\\\ u= 1.2 m/s$ .

Thus, the initial velocity of the bike is 1.2 m/s.
