At a speed of 60 mph, how far does your car travel in 3 seconds

1 answer:

4 0

One of the many random useless factoids that I carry around
in my head is the factoid that 60 miles per hour is equivalent
to exactly 88 feet per second.

So in three seconds at that speed, you would cover exactly

(3 x 88) = 264 feet.

How is kinetic energy related to the distance

astra-53 [7]

Kinetic energy =

1/2 (mass) • (velocity squared).

I don't see distance in that formula anywhere, so they're not related.

A freight train has a mass of [02] kg. The wheels of the locomotive push back on the tracks with a constant net force of 7.50 ×

otez555 [7]

Answer:

t = 300.3 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a freight train, $m=1.01\times 10^7\ kg$

Force applied on the tracks, $F=7.5\times 10^5\ N$

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 80 km/h = 22.3 m/s

We need to find the time taken by it to increase the speed of the train from rest.

The force acting on it is given by :

F = ma

$F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1.01\times 10^7\times (22.3-0)}{7.5\times 10^5}\\\\t=300.3\ s$

So, the required time is 300.3 seconds.

our friend is constructing a balancing display for an art project. She has one rock on the left (ms=2.25 kgms=2.25 kg) and three

Licemer1 [7]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The torque produced by the pile of rocks is $\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

The distance of the single for equilibrium to occur is $r_s =1.62 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the left rock is $m_s = 2.25 \ kg$

The mass of the rock on the right $m_p = 10.1 kg$

The distance from fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks is $r_p = 0.360 \ m$

Generally the torque produced by the pile of rock is mathematically represented as

$\tau = m_p * g * r_p$

Substituting values

$\tau = 10.1 * 9.8 * 0.360$

$\tau = 35.63\ N \cdot m$

Generally we can mathematically evaluated the distance of the the single rock that would put the system in equilibrium as follows

The torque due to the single rock is

$\tau = m_s * g * r_s$

At equilibrium the both torque are equal

$35.63 = m_s * r_s * g$

Making $r_s$ the subject of the formula

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{m_s * g}$

Substituting values

$r_s = \frac{35.63 }{2.25 * 9.8}$

$r_s =1.62 \ m$

Which satellite has the greatest gravitational force with Earth?

EastWind [94]

Answer:

Satellite D has a mass (kg) of 500 and the distance from Earth (km) is 320.

Explanation:

The universal law of gravitation states that the force between two objects in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

We have to choose the satellite having greatest gravitational force with earth. In all options the distance from the earth is same i.e. 320 km. So, we have to select the satellite having maximum mass because the mass of the earth is constant.

Hence, the correct option is (D) " Satellite D has a mass (kg) of 500 and the distance from Earth (km) is 320 ".
