Hey there, the answer is ..............................  About 0.7 m/sec^2
<span>
Acceleration is the change in speed / time </span>

<span>Change in speed is 60 m/sec </span>

<span>Time is 1 minute 25 second. Convert that to seconds. </span>

<span>Divide the change in speed by the time in seconds.

About 0.7 m/sec^2

 </span><span>So the acceleration is - 60 / 85 = - 0.71 m/s^2 

HOPE I HELPED!!!!!!!!!!

A mass is tied to a string and swung in a horizontal circle with a constant angular speed. show answer No Attempt If this speed
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The tension in the string is quadrupled i.e. increased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

The tension in the string is the centripetal force. This force is given by

F = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

m is the mass, v is the velocity and r is the radius.

It follows that F \propto v^2, provided m and r are constant.

When v is doubled, the new force, F_1, is

F_1 = \dfrac{m(2v)^2}{r} = \dfrac{4mv^2}{r} = 4\dfrac{mv^2}{r} = 4F

Hence, the tension in the string is quadrupled.

a wave is described by where x is in meters, y is in centimeters and t is in seconds. The angular frequency is
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Complete Question

A wave is described by y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t), where x is in meters, y is in centimetres and t is in seconds. The angular wave  frequency is

Answer:

The  value is w =  10 \ rad /s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The equation describing the wave is y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Generally the sinusoidal equation representing the motion of a wave is mathematically represented as

         y(x,t) =  Asin(kx + wt )

Where  w  is the  angular frequency

Now comparing this equation  with that given we see that

       w =  10 \ rad /s

What is the % error in using g = 10.0 m/s^2? (Take the value ofg as 9.8 m/s^2)
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

So percentage error will be 2 %

Explanation:

We have given initial value of acceleration due to gravity g=10m/sec^2

And final value of acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

We have to find the percentage error

We know that percentage error is given by percentage\ error=\frac{initial\ value-final\ value}{initial\ value}\times 100

So percentage\ error=\frac{10-9.8}{10}\times 100=2 %

A rectangular barge, 5.2 m long and 2.4 m wide, floats in fresh water. Suppose that a 410-kg crate of auto parts is loaded onto
sesenic [268]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The depth of barge float=3 cm</h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

Length of rectangular barge=5.2 m

Width of rectangular barge=2.4m

Mass of crate=410 kg

Let h be the height of barge float

Volume of barge float=l\times b\times h=5.2\times 2.4\times h=12.48h

Density of water=10^3kg/m^3

Weight of water displaced by barge=Buoyant force=-Weight of horse

Volume\;of\;water\times density\;of\;water\times g=410\times g

12.48h\times 1000=410

h=\frac{410}{12.48\times 1000}=0.03 m

1 m=100 cm

0.03 m=0.03\times 100=3cm

Hence, the depth of barge float=3 cm

If an element's atomic mass and atomic number are known, what else can be determined? Give an example to demonstrate your unders
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

If an elements atomic mass and number are known you can also determine the number of protons and neutrons it has. You can also determine where it is on the periodic table. For example, if a element had a atomic mass of 10 then it would be higher up on the table then one with a mass of 20. Btw I do apex too.
