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

Physics
1 answer:
Viefleur [7K]2 years ago
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.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

(a)20.65g

(b)0.19m

Explanation:

(a) The total mass would be it's mass per length multiplied by the total lenght

0.355(50 + 23*0.355) = 20.65 g

(b) The center of mass would be at point c where the mass on the left and on the right of c is the same

Hence the mass on the left side would be half of its total mass which is 20.65/2 = 10.32 g

c(50 + 23c) = 10.32

23c^2 + 50c - 10.32 = 0

c \approx 0.19m

vA child is in danger of drowning in the Merimac river. The Merimac river has a current of 3.1 km/hr to the east. The child is 0
ikadub [295]

Answer:

d = 2.26 km

Explanation:

Let the child is moving with speed same as the speed of water flow

So here the position of child with respect to flow must be zero

And if the boat start at an angle with the vertical

so its relative speed with flow of water is given as

v_x = 24.8 sin\theta

v_y = 24.8 cos\theta

now the time to reach the child is given as

\frac{0.6}{24.8 cos\theta} = \frac{2.5}{24.8 sin\theta }

so now we have

\theta = 76.5 degree

So the time to catch the child is given as

t = \frac{0.6}{24.8 cos78.2}

t = 0.104 h

So distance moved by it in 0.104 h

distance moved by the boat in upstream direction given as

x = (24.8 sin 74.8 - 3.1)(0.104)

x = 2.18 km

In y direction the displacement of boat is

y = 0.6 km

net displacement of the ball is given as

d = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}

d = \sqrt{2.18^2 + 0.6^2}

d = 2.26 km
