A driver of a car enters a new 110 km/h speed zone on the highway. the driver immediately begins to accelerate and reaches 110 k

m/h after driving 500 m. if the original speed was 80 km/h, what was the driver’s acceleration?

The formula for calculating acceleration can be derived from:

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

where a is acceleration, v is final velocity, v0 is initial velocity and d is distance = 0.5 km

 

Rewriting in terms of a:

a = (v^2 – v0^2) / 2 d

a = (110^2 – 80^2) / (2 * 0.5)

<span>a = 5,700 km/h^2 = 0.44 m/s^2</span>

3 A rocket of mass 1200 kg is travelling at 2000 m/s. It fires its engine for 1 minute. The forward thrust provided by the rocke
natita [175]

The impulse shared by the object equals the difference in momentum of the object. In equation form,

F • t = m • Δ v. In a collision, objects experience an impulse; the impulse causes and is equal to the difference in momentum.

<h3>How to calculate  thrust provided by the rocket engines is 10 kN (10 000 N).?</h3>

a)There is this impulse-momentum change equation.

where m$ is the mass of a body, $F$ is a force acting to the body, $t$ is time and $D E L A T A N\}=V_{2}-V_{1}$ is the change of velocity.We consider everything is happen along a straight line, and gravitation does not participate.So, the increase of momentum is $\mathrm{F}^{*} \mathrm{t}=10000 \mathrm{~N} * 60$ seconds $=600000 \mathrm{~N}^{*} \mathrm{~s}=600000\left(\mathrm{~kg}^{*} \mathrm{~m}\right)^{*} \mathrm{~s} / \mathrm{s}^{\wedge} 2=600000 \mathrm{~kg}{ }^{*} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$.

We consider everything exits happen along a straight line, and gravitation does not participate.

So, the increase of momentum is F×t = 10000 N × 60 seconds = 600000 N*s = 600000 (kg*m)*s/s^2 = 600000 kg*m/s.

$$\Delta(\mathrm{V})=\frac{\mathrm{F.t}}{\mathrm{m}}=\frac{600000}{1200}=500 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s} .$$

New velocity after  engine was firing during 60 seconds is 2000 + 500 = 2500 m/s.

A combination of two identical resistors connected in series has an equivalent resistance of 12. ohms. What is the equivalent re
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

R1 + R2 = R = 12 for resistors in series - so R1 = R2 if they are identical

2 R1 = 12         and R1 = R2 = 6 ohms

1 / R = 1 / R1 + 1 / R2     for resistors in parallel

R = R1 * R2 / (R1 + R2) = 6 * 6 / (6 + 6) = 3

The equivalent resistance would be 3 ohms if connected in parallel

Why are marble and granite used so often as a building materials?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Granite is an excellent building material that provides some outstanding interior design opportunities whilst being incredibly sturdy and reliable. It has become one of the most popular building materials in modern construction, from kitchen surfaces through to paving slabs.You Can Expect Durability and Longevity. Firstly, marble is so popular around the world because of its durability in a wide variety of weather conditions. Structures that are over hundreds of years old made from marble are still standing to this day, and look as pristine as they day they were crafted.
