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 person pushes a refrigerator across a horizontal floor. The mass of the refrigerator is 110 kg, the coefficient of static fric
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of refrigerator, m = 110 kg

coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.85

coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.59

(a) the minimum force required to just start the motion in refrigerator

F = μs x mg

F = 0.85 x 110 x 9.8

F = 916.3 N

(b) The force required to move the refrigerator with constant speed

F' = μk x mg

F' = 0.59 x 110 x 9.8

F' = 636.02 N

(c) Let a be the acceleration.

Net force = Applied force - friction force

F net = 950 - 636.02

F net = 313.98 N

a = F net / mass

a = 313.98 / 110

a = 2.85 m/s²

Locate the complete verbal phrase and identify its type.
Ksju [112]
<span>won
adjective

Verb phrases are verbs that may function as a predicate, adjective, or adverb. </span>

(a) "That he said" is an adjective modifying "word". However, this contains the s ubject"he" and the verb "said". It is a clause and NOT a phrase. Phrases can only have either a verb or a noun.
<span>(b) There's only one verb "was" but it does not come with a complement, object, modifier, or other verb. Hence, it's NOT a verb phrase. </span>
<span>(c) "Shall be" consists of the modal shall and the be-verb be. This is a perfect example of a verb phrase that functions as a VERB PHRASE. </span>
<span>(d) "Roared" and "charged" are two verbs referring to different subjects. They do not come with a complement, object, modifier, or another verb. Hence, they're NOT a verb phrase. "As the bull charged" is a clause and not a phrase.</span>

Estimate how far apart the rays of deepest red and deepest violet light are as they exit the bottom surface. assume nred = 1.57
Harlamova29_29 [7]
We begin by noting that the angle of incidence is the one that's taken with respect to the normal to the surface in question. In this case the angle of incidence is 30. The material is Flint Glass according to the original question. The refractive indez of air n1=1, the refractive index of red in flint glass is nred=1.57, finally for violet in the glass medium is nviolet=1.60. Snell's Law dictates:
n_1sin(\theta_1)=n_2sin(\theta_2)
Where \theta_2 differs for each wavelenght, that means violet and red will have different refractive indices in the glass.
In the second figure provided details are given on which are the angles in question, \Delta x is the distance between both rays.
\theta_{2red}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.57})\approx 18.5705
\theta_{2violet}=Asin(\frac{sin(30)}{1.60})\approx 18.21
At what distance d from the incidence normal will the beams land at the bottom?
For violet we have:
d_{violet}=h.tan(\theta_{2violet})\approx 0.0132m
For red we have:
d_{red}=h.tan(\theta_{2red})\approx 0.0134m
We finally have:
\Delta x=d_{red}-d_{violet}\approx2.8\times10^{-4}m

Which terrestrial planet exhibits retrograde rotation?.
Sati [7]

Answer:

Planets that are farther from the sun than the earth (all but Mercury and Venus) will exhibit retrograde motion.

If the position of the planet is observed relative to the background stars, the planet will appear to move backward relative to the stars when the earth is moving in an Eastward direction faster than the planet, and the planet appears to move backwards relative to the stars

(The planet will be on the side of the earth that is opposite that of the sun)
