A sailboat is traveling to the right when a gust of wind causes the boat to accelerate leftward at 2.5​​​​m​​/s2 for 4s. After t
Pavlova-9 [17]
Taking right movement to be positive means leftward movement is negative.
Hence we have a deceleration of
a = - 2.5 {ms}^{ - 2}

t = 4s
v = 3.0 {ms}^{ - 1}
Using this 'suvat' equation
v = u + at
we can determine the initial velocity

3.0= u + -2.5(4)

3.0+2.5(4)=u

13.0 = u

Hence the initial velocity is 13.0 meters per seconds

You weigh 580 N on Earth. If you were to go to Mars, where its gravitational pull is 3 . 7 11 m /s 2 , what would you weigh? (Hi
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

59.18 kg

Explanation:

use f=ma

f= 580 N

a = 9.8 m/s 2

weigh(m) doesn't change only force(F) changes

The term 'Zero Age Main Sequence' refers to the time when a new star stops contracting and hydrogen fusion starts.A. TrueB. Fals
mash [69]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a star has reached the main sequence stage, hydrogen is converted into helium by nuclear fusion, . Also, the gravity and pressure are balanced because the star does not radiate more heat than it generates. A star usually spends most of its lifetime at this stage.

The Zero Age Main Sequence is the period during the main sequence when a star stops contracting, and begin to fuse hydrogen in its core.

An 85-kg refrigerator is located on the 70th floor of a skyscraper (4km above the ground ) what is the potential energy
Airida [17]
Potential energy can be calculated using the following rule:
potential energy = mgh where:
m is the mass = 85 kg
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2
h is the height = 4 km = 4000 meters

Substitute in the above equation to get the potential energy as follows:
Potential energy = 85*9.8*4000 = 3332000 joules

A sinusoidal voltage is given by the expression ????(????)=20cos(5π×103 ????+60°) V. Determine its (a) frequency in hertz, (b) p
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

<em>There are some placeholders in the expression, but they can be safely assumed</em>

Answer:

(a) f=1617.9\ Hz

(b) T=0.618\ ms

(c) A=20 \ Volts

(d) \varphi=60^o

Explanation:

<u>Sinusoidal Waves </u>

An oscillating wave can be expressed as a sinusoidal function as follows

V(t)&=A\cdot \sin(2\pi ft+\varphi )

Where

A=Amplitude

f=frequency

\varphi=Phase\  angle

The voltage of the question is the sinusoid expression  

V(t)=20cos(5\pi\times 103t+60^o)

(a) By comparing with the general formula we have

f=5\pi\times 103=1617.9\ Hz

\boxed{f=1617.9\ Hz}

(b) The period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

\displaystyle T=\frac{1}{f}

\displaystyle T=\frac{1}{1617.9\ Hz}=0.000618\ sec

Converting to milliseconds

\boxed{T=0.618\ ms}

(c) The amplitude is

\boxed{A=20 \ Volts}

(d) Phase angle:

\boxed{\varphi=60^o}
