Adding both distances together, you get a total of 1800 miles. With the total travel time of 4 hours, you divide the distance traveled by the time it took. so 1800/4=450 mph

Answer:

The sled needed a distance of 92.22 m and a time of 1.40 s to stop.

Explanation:

The relationship between velocities and time is described by this equation: v_f=v_0+a*t, where v_f is the final velocity, v_0 is the initial velocity, a the acceleration, and t is the time during such acceleration is applied.

Solving the equation for the time, and applying to the case: t=\frac{v_f-v_0}{a}=\frac{0\frac{m}{s}-282\frac{m}{s}  }{-201\frac{m}{s^2} }=1.40s, where v_f=0\frac{m}{s} because the sled is totally stopped, v_0=282\frac{m}{s} is the velocity of the sled before braking and, a=-201\frac{m}{s^2} is negative because the deceleration applied by the brakes.

In the other hand, the equation that describes the distance in term of velocities and acceleration:x_f-x_0=v_0*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2, where x_f-x_0 is the distance traveled, v_0 is the initial velocity, t the time of the process and, a is the acceleration of the process.

Then for this case the relationship becomes: x_f-x_0=282\frac{m}{s} *1.40s+\frac{1}{2}(-201\frac{m}{s})*(1.40s)^2=94.22m.

<u>Note that the acceleration is negative because is a braking process.</u>

A wheel has a constant angular acceleration of 4.5 rad/s2. during a certain 5.0 s interval, it turns through an angle of 128 rad
dalvyx [7]
The solution for this problem is through this formula:Ø = w1 t + 1/2 ã t^2 
where:Ø - angular displacement w1 - initial angular velocity t - time ã - angular acceleration 
128 = w1 x 4 + ½ x 4.5 x 5^2 128 = 4w1 + 56.254w1 = -128 + 56.25 4w1 = 71.75w1 = 71.75/4
w1 = 17.94 or 18 rad s^-1 
w1 = wo + ãt 
w1 - final angular velocity 
wo - initial angular velocity 
18 = 0 + 4.5t t = 4 s

Should nuclear energy be part of sustainable energy future? explain your answer
liraira [26]

Answer:

Nuclear power is presently a sustainable energy source, but could become completely renewable if the source of uranium changed from mined ore to seawater. Since U extracted is continuously replenished through geologic processes, nuclear would become as endless as solar.

Part A If the velocity of a pitched ball has a magnitude of 47.5 m/s and the batted ball's velocity is 51.5 m/s in the opposite
nalin [4]

Explanation:

Let us assume that the mass of a pitched ball is 0.145 kg.

Initial velocity of the pitched ball, u = 47.5 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = -51.5 m/s (in opposite direction)

We need to find the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball and the impulse applied to it by the bat. The change in momentum of the ball is given by :

\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\\Delta p=0.145\times ((-51.5)-47.5)\\\\\Delta p=-14.355\ kg-m/s

So, the magnitude of the change in momentum of the ball is 14.355 kg-m/s.

Let the the ball remains in contact with the bat for 2.00 ms. The impulse is given by :

J=\dfrac{\Delta p}{t}\\\\J=\dfrac{14.355}{2\times 10^{-3}}\\\\J=7177.5\ kg-m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.
