Kinetic of automobile

Mass m = 1,250 Kg;         V = 11 m/s

Formula: K.E = 1/2 mV²

               K.E = 1/2(1,250 Kg)(11 m/s)²

               K.E = 75,625 J

Speed required for insect to have the same kinetic energy as automobile

Mass of insect = 0.72 g convert to Kg   m = 7.2 x 10⁻⁴ Kg

K.E = 1/2 mV²  Derive V =?

 V = 2 K.E/m

 V = √2(75,625 J)/7.2 x 10⁻4 Kg

 V = √2.1 x 10⁸ m²/s²

 V = 14,491.34 m/s  (velocity of insect)

How do you find the water pressure at the bottom of the 55-m-high water tower?
svp [43]
-- What's the volume of a cylinder with radius=1m and height=55m ?

         ( Volume of a cylinder = π R² h )

-- How much does that volume of water weigh ?

            1 liter of water = 1 kilogram of mass
            Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) 

-- What's the area of the bottom of that 1m-radius cylinder ?

       Pressure  =  (force) / (area)

Car B starts at point X and moves clockwise around a circular track at a constant rate of 2 mph. Ten hours later, Car A leaves f
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

20.96 h

Explanation:

The perimeter of the track is 2*pi*r = 20pi miles

In 10 hours, car B would have moved 20miles. So, when Car A leaves from point X, car B is 20pi - 20 miles from point X counter-clockwise and car A.

From here, we can express the distance of A from X like this:

xa = 3t

And the distance of B would be:

xb = 20pi - 20 - 2t

The time t where they would passed each other and put  12 miles between them would be the one where xa - xb is equal to 12:

xa - xb = 12

3t - (20pi - 20 - 2t) = 12

5t = 20 pi - 8

t = (20pi - 8)/5 = 10.96 h

Remember to add this value to the 10 hours car B had already been racing:

t = 20.96h

When running your engine, you cause debris, rocks and propeller blast to be directed towards people or other aircraft. Is this c
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Yes, it is reckless. This is because it is the responsibility of the pilot to make sure that the direction of the propeller blast is away from people or other aircraft and in a safe direction.

Explanation:

Yes, it is reckless to let the propeller blast face people and other aircraft. This is because it is the responsibility of the pilot to make sure that the direction of the propeller blast is away from people or other aircraft and in a safe direction. People and other aircraft can be injured by the debris and the rocks that are scattered by the engine of the aircraft.
