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.

Answer:

1) a substance made by mixing other substances together.

2) diverse in character or content.

3) of the same kind; alike.

4) a means of solving a problem or dealing with a difficult situation.

5) a homogeneous noncrystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance. Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle, and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension.

A stuntman is being pulled along a rough road at a constant velocity by a cable attached to a moving truck. The cable is paralle
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

715 N

Explanation:

Since the system is moving at a constant velocity, the net force must be 0. The tension on the road is equal and opposite direction with the kinetic friction force created by the road and the stuntman.

Let g = 9.8 m/s2

Gravity and equalized normal force is:

N = P = mg = 107*9.8 = 1048.6 N

Kinetic friction force and equalized tension force on the rope is

T = F_{\mu} = N\mu = 1048.6 * 0.682 = 715.1452 N

You are operating a pwc in an area where swimmers are in the water. When must you slow your pwc to "slow, no wake speed"?.
Lostsunrise [7]

You should slow your pwc to "slow, no wake speed" when within 100 feet of anchored vessels or non-motorized craft.

<h3>What is Slow-no-wake?</h3>

This is the process of operating a personal watercraft at the slowest possible speed.

This helps to maintain steerage which prevents different forms of accident or risks when in motion in the water.

A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s into the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg initially at rest on a fric
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

All fraction of kinectic energy is lost to barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg

Explanation:

A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s ...

The kinetic energy is given by 1/2mv²

Kinectic energy of the ball = 1/2 *0.5*160²

Kinectic energy = 1/4 *25600

Kinectic energy = 6400 joules.

If no energy is lost to fiction, and the ball sticks to a barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg with initial velocity zero, all kinetic energy is lost to the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg.
