The gravitational force on the car is

(9.8 m/s^2) x (the car's mass in kg).

The unit is newtons.

Use your calculator to evaluate -3.7 meter/second-13.9 meter/second 21.4 second-72 second

cluponka [151]

Answer :

(-3.7 meter/second) - (13.9 meter/second) = -17.6 meter/second

(21.4 second) - (72 second) = -50.6 second

Explanation :

(1) As we are given the expression :

(-3.7 meter/second) - (13.9 meter/second)

Now we have to evaluate this expression, we get:

⇒ -17.6 meter/second

(2) As we are given the expression :

(21.4 second) - (72 second)

Now we have to evaluate this expression, we get:

⇒ -50.6 second

Jack and Jill are on two different floors of their high rise office building and looking out of their respective windows. Jack s

Maru [420]

Answer:

a) speed when Jack sees the pot : 12.92 meters per second

b) height difference 163.115 meters

Explanation:

First to calculate te initial speed we use the acceleration formula:

a= v1-v0/t

Acceleration being gravity's acceleration (9.8 m/s^2)

v1 being the speed when Jill sees the pot

v0 when Jack sees it

and t the time between

Solving for v0 it would be

v1 - a*t = v0

replacing

$58 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 *4.6 s = v0 = 12.92 m/s$

For the second question we use the position formula setting y0 and t0 as the position and time when jack sees the pot. (and setting the positive axis downward I.E. one meter below jack would be 1m not -1m)

The formula is

$y0 + v0*t + 1/2 g *t^2 = yt$

replacing

$0m + 12.92m/s* 4.6 s + 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * (4.6 s)^2 = 163.115 m$
