Answer:

33.40 m/s² and 164.38 m/s²

Explanation:

From the equation of motion,

s = ut + 1/2at²................. Equation 1.

Where s = distance, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, t = time.

Given: s = 404.5 m, t = 4.922 s, u = 0 m/s.

Substitute into equation 1

404.5 = 0(4.922) + 1/2(4.922²a)

404.5 = 12.11a

a= 404.5/12.11

a = 33.40 m/s²

Also using

v² = u² + 2as ................... Equation 2

Where v = final velocity.

Given: u = 0 m/s, a = 33.40 m/s². s = 404.5 m

Substitute into equation 2

v² = 0² + 2(33.40)(404.5)

v² = 27020.6

v = √(27020.6)

v = 164.38 m/s.

Hence  acceleration and the final velocity is 33.40 m/s² and 164.38 m/s respectively

Answer:

a. a=33.34ms⁻², V=164.4m/s

Explanation:

Since the dragster started with zero velocity, de determine the acceleration using of the equations of motion.

Below are the data given

Distance, s=404.5m,

time taken,t=4.922secs

Using the equation

S=ut+1/2at²

where u is the initial velocity and u=0

Making the acceleration the subject of the formula, we arrive at

a=2s/t²

a=(2*404.5)/4.922²

a=33.34ms⁻².

To determine the velocity, we use

V=u+at

V=0+33.34ms⁻² *4.922sec

V=164.4m/s

A total resistance of 3.03 Ω is to be produced by connecting an unknown resistance to a 12.18 Ω resistance. (a) What must be the
insens350 [35]

Answer:

(a) 4.0334Ω

(b)parallel

Explanation:

for resistors connected in parallel;

\frac{1}{R_{eq} } =\frac{1}{R1}+\frac{1}{R2}

Req =3.03Ω , R1 =12.18Ω

\frac{1}{3.03 } =\frac{1}{12.18}+\frac{1}{R2}

\frac{1}{R2}=\frac{1}{3.03 }-\frac{1}{12.18}

\frac{1}{R2}=0.2479

R2=1/0.2479

R2=4.0334Ω

(b)parallel connection is suitable for the desired total resistance. series connection can not be used to achieve a lower resistance as the equation for series connection is.

Req = R1+R2

On a straight road, a car speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s over a 5 second interval and a truck slows at a const
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

a)

Explanation:

  • Since the car speeds up at a constant rate, we can use the kinematic equation for distance (assuming that the initial position is x=0, and choosing t₀ =0), as follows:

        x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}   (1)

  • Since the car starts from rest, v₀ =0.
  • We know the value of t = 5 sec., but we need to find the value of a.
  • Applying the definition of acceleration, as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, and remembering that v₀ = 0 and t₀ =0, we can solve for a, as follows:

       a_{c} =\frac{v_{fc}}{t} = \frac{20m/s}{5s} = 4 m/s2  (2)

  • Replacing a and t in (1):

       x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}  = \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 4 m/s2*(5s)^{2} = 50.0 m.  (3)

  • Now, if the truck slows down at a constant rate also, we can use (1) again, noting that v₀ is not equal to zero anymore.
  • Since we have the values of vf (it's zero because the truck stops), v₀, and t, we can find the new value of a, as follows:

       a_{t} =\frac{-v_{to}}{t} = \frac{-20m/s}{10s} = -2 m/s2  (4)

  • Replacing v₀, at and t in (1), we have:

       x_{ft} = 20m/s*10.0s + \frac{1}{2}*(-2 m/s2)*(10.0s)^{2} = 200m -100m = 100.0m   (5)

  • Therefore, as the truck travels twice as far as the car, the right answer is a).

What is the difference between a cannabinoid and a trichome?
Sedbober [7]
<span>Trichome density and type and cannabinoid content of leaves and bracts were quantitated during organ ontogeny for three clones of Cannabis sativa L. Trichome initiation and development were found to occur throughout leaf and bract ontogeny. On leaves, bulbous glands were more abundant than capitate-sessile glands for all clones, although differences in density for each gland type were evident between clones. On pistillate bracts, capitate-sessile glands were more abundant than the bulbous form on all clones, and both types decreased in relative density during bract ontogeny for each clone. The capitate-stalked gland, present on bracts but absent from vegetative leaves, increased in density during bract ontogeny. The capitate-stalked gland appeared to be initiated later than bulbous or capitate-sessile glands during bract development and on one clone it was first found midway in bract ontogeny. Nonglandular trichomes decreased in density during organ ontogeny, but the densities differed between leaves and bracts and also between clones. Specific regulatory mechanisms appear to exist to control the development of each trichome type independently.</span>

Under ideal conditions (no atmospheric interference of any kind), if I hit a golf ball at an angle of 25 degrees at an initial s
g100num [7]

Answer:

The required angle is (90-25)° = 65°

Explanation:

The given motion is an example of projectile motion.

Let 'v' be the initial velocity and '∅' be the angle of projection.

Let 't' be the time taken for complete motion.

Let 'g' be the acceleration due to gravity

Taking components of velocity in horizontal(x) and vertical(y) direction.

v_{x} =  v cos(∅)

v_{y} =  v sin(∅)

We know that for a projectile motion,

t =\frac{2vsin(∅)}{g}

Since there is no force acting on the golf ball in horizonal direction.

Total distance(d) covered in horizontal direction is -

d = v_{x}×t = vcos(∅)×\frac{2vsin(∅)}{g} = \frac{v^{2}sin(2∅) }{g}.

If the golf ball has to travel the same distance 'd' for same initital velocity v = 23m/s , then the above equation should have 2 solutions of initial angle 'α' and 'β' such that -

α +β = 90° as-

d = \frac{v^{2}sin(2α) }{g} = \frac{v^{2}sin(2[90-β]) }{g} =\frac{v^{2}sin(180-2β) }{g} = \frac{v^{2}sin(2β) }{g} .

∴ For the initial angles 'α' or 'β' , total horizontal distance 'd' travelled remains the same.

∴ If α = 25° , then

     β = 90-25 = 65°

∴ The required angle is 65°.
