A car traveled at a constant velocity of 70 mph from noon to 2:00 pm. At 3:00 pm the velocity of the car was 80 mph; and finally

at 4:30 pm the velocity of the car was 40 mph. Calculate the acceleration of the car between 3:00 and 4:30 pm. A) -40 mi hr2 B)-26.67 mi hr2 C)26.67 mi hr2 D) 40 mi hr2

Acceleration is the result when the difference in final and initial speed is divided by time. From the given, the acceleration from 3:00 to 4:30 pm is calculated through the steps below,
                             acceleration = (40mph - 80 mph) / 1.5 h
                                                     -26.67 mi/h²
Thus, the answer is letter B.

A 26.2-kg dog is running northward at 3.02 m/s, while a 5.30-kg cat is running eastward at 2.74 m/s. Their 65.1-kg owner has the
REY [17]

Answer:

Angle with the +x axis is θ = 79.599degree

Then the velocity of owner = 1.235m/s

Explanation:

Given that the mass of dog is m1 =26.2 kg

velocity of dog is u1 = 3.02 m/s (north)

mass of cat is m2 = 5.3 kg

velocity is u2 = 2.74 m/s (east )

Mass of owner is M = 65.1 kg

Consider the east direction along +x axis andnorth along +y

momentum of dog is Py = m1 x u1

= 79.124 kg.m/s (j)

momentum of cat is Px = m2 x u2

= 14.522 kg.m/s (i)

Then the net magnitude of momentum is P = (Px2 + Py2)1/2

= 80.445

Angle with the +x axis is θ =tan-1(Py / Px ) = 79.599 degree

Then the velocity of owner is v = P / M = 1.235 m/s

If BHALA AHMAD KHAN applied the 20N force is applied on an object moving with the velocity 30 m/s. calculate the power in KW.
Leokris [45]

Answer:0.6kw

Explanation:

Power=force×velocity

Power=20×30=600w

In kw it's going to be 600/1000=0.6kw

An object is located 70 cm from a concave mirror with a focal length of 15 cm. What is the image
Stels [109]

(a) The distance of the image formed by the concave mirror is 19.1 cm.

(b) The image formed is diminished and real.

<h3>Image distance </h3>

The distance of the image formed by the concave mirror is calculated as follows;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/15 - 1/70

1/v = 0.05238

v = 1/0.05238

v = 19.1 cm

The image distance is smaller than object distance, thus the image formed is diminished and real.

Space-faring astronauts cannot use standard weight scales (since they are constantly in free fall) so instead they determine the
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

ma = 48.48kg

Explanation:

To find the mass of the astronaut, you first calculate the mass of the chair by using the information about the period of oscillation of the empty chair and the spring constant. You use the following formula:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{m_c}{k}}     (1)

mc: mass of the chair

k: spring constant = 600N/m

T: period of oscillation of the chair = 0.9s

You solve the equation (1) for mc, and then you replace the values of the other parameters:

m_c=\frac{T^2k}{4\pi^2}=\frac{(0.9s)^2(600N/m)}{4\pi^2}=12.31kg    (2)

Next, you calculate the mass of the chair and astronaut by using the information about the period of the chair when the astronaut is sitting on the chair:

T': period of chair when the astronaut is sitting = 2.0s

M: mass of the astronaut plus mass of the chair = ?

T'=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{M}{k}}\\\\M=\frac{T'^2k}{4\pi^2}=\frac{(2.0s)^2(600N/m)}{4\pi^2}\\\\M=60.79kg (3)

Finally, the mass of the astronaut is the difference between M and mc (results from (2) and (3)) :

m_a=M-m_c=60.79kg-12.31kg=48.48kg

The mass of the astronaut is 48.48 kg
