Near the end of a marathon race, the first two runners are separated by a distance of

Physics
1 answer:
yuradex [85]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a) 4.75-3.25 = 1.50 m/s

b) Time taken to overtake = 65/1.5 = 43.33 seconds

first runner will finish the race in 215/3.25 = 66.15 seconds

So second runner will win the race

ANSWER

c) 65 +215 = 280m

280 / 4.75 = 58.95 seconds

first runner will complete 58.95 X 3.25 = 191.5875 m

So 215-191.5875=23.4125 meters ahead

When the distance between two stars decreases by one-third, the force between them
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

the force will increase by a factor 2.25

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the two stars is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two stars

r is the distance between the stars

If the distance is decreased by one-third, it means that the new distance is 2/3 of the previous distance

r'=\frac{2}{3}r

So the new force will be

F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(\frac{2}{3}r)^2}=\frac{9}{4} G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}=2.25 F

So, the force will be 2.25 times the previous value.

A dragster takes off from rest and crosses the finish line 320 m away. If the dragster is able to accelerate at 10LaTeX: \frac{m
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t = 8 s

Explanation:

In order to find the time taken by the dragster we will use equations of motion. Here, we will use second equation of motion:

s = Vi t + (1/2)at²

where,

s = distance covered = 320 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s (Since, dragster starts from rest)

t = time taken = ?

a = acceleration of dragster = 10 m/s²

Therefore,

320 m = (0 m/s)t + (1/2)(10 m/s²)t²

t² = (320 m)(2)/(10 m/s²)

t = √(64 s²)

<u>t = 8 s</u>
