Answer:

time at which Kathy overtakes Stan is 6.70 sec

Explanation:

given data

time = 1 sec

acceleration= 3.4 m/s²

acceleration = 4.49  m/s²

to find out

the time at which Kathy overtakes Stan

solution

we consider here travel time for kathy = t1

and travel time for stan is = t2

and we know initial velocity = 0

so

t1 = 1 + t2

and distance travel equation by kinematic is

d1 = ut + \frac{1}{2} at²

d1 = 0+  \frac{1}{2} 4.49 (t2)²   ................1

and

d2 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} 3.4 (1+t2)²   ..................2

and when overtake distance same so  from equation 1 and 2

\frac{1}{2} 4.49 (t2)²  = \frac{1}{2} 3.4 (1+t2)²

t2 = 6.703828 sec

so time at which Kathy overtakes Stan is 6.70 sec

Sedaia [141]

Answer: Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Under what circumstances does distance traveled equal magnitude of displacement?

When a body's motion is linear in one direction. Or a body moving in a straight line without turning back.

What is the only case in which magnitude of displacement and distance are exactly the same?

When the body is moving in a straight line with without changing direction or without turning back.

What are the two main types of energy?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Fourth option

Explanation:

They're many different types of energy, from chemical and mechanical to heat and solar energy. But the two most basic types of energy are "kinetic and potential energy" or the fourth option. Kinetic energy is the energy an object has when it is in motion, while potential energy is the energy an object has when it's as rest. These two specific types of energies are the most basic and you can even convert them into many different types of energies, like heat or electrical energy.

Hope this helps.

A projectile is launched at an angle above the
gtnhenbr [62]
The first rule of vectors is that the horizontal and vertical components are separate. Disregarding air resistance, the only thing we have to worry about is gravity.

The appropriate suvat to use for the vertical component is v = u +at
I will take a to be -9.81, you may have to change it to be 10 if your qualification likes g to be 10.

v = 30 + (-9.81x2)
v = 30 - 19.62
=10.38m/s

Therefore we know that after 2.0 s the vertical component will be 10.38ms^-1, ie 10m/s as the answers given are all to 2sf.

The horizontal component is completely separate to the vertical component and since there is no air resistance, it will remain constant throughout the projectiles trajectory. Therefore it will remain at 40ms^-1.

Combining this together we get:
(1) vx=40m/s and vy=10m/s

Define Nuclear Physics ?​
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Definition. Nuclear physics is the study of the protons and neutrons at the centre of an atom and the interactions that hold them together in a space just a few femtometres (10-15 metres) across. Example nuclear reactions include radioactive decay, fission, the break-up of a nucleus, and fusion, the merging of nuclei.

A test car starts from rest on a horizontal circular track of 115-m radius and increases its speed at a uniform rate to reach 90
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

a= 3.49 m/s^2

Explanation:

magnitude of total acceleration = sqrt{radial acceleration^2+tangential acceleration^2}.

we know that tangential acceleration a_t= change in velocity /time taken

now 90 km/h = 25 m/s

a_t = 25/17 = 1.47 m/s^2.

radial acceleration a_r = v^2/r

v= a_t×t = 1.47×13 = 19.11 m/s

a_r = 19.11^2/115=  3.175

now,

a= \sqrt{a_t^2+a_r^2}

a= \sqrt{1.47^2+3.175^2}

a= 3.49 m/s^2
