The speed would increase by however much the acceleration due to gravity is. On earth, I believe that is 32ft/s or 9.8m/s

A runner moves 2.88 m/s north. She accelerates at 0.350 m/s^2 at a -52.0 angle. At the point in the motion where she is running
MrRissso [65]

The runner has initial velocity vector

\vec v_0=\left(2.88\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}\right)\,\vec\jmath

and acceleration vector

\vec a=\left(0.350\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(\cos(-52.0^\circ)\,\vec\imath+\sin(-52.0^\circ)\,\vec\jmath)

so that her velocity at time t is

\vec v=\vec v_0+\vec at

She runs directly east when the vertical component of \vec v is 0:

2.88\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}+\left(0.350\,\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\sin(-52.0^\circ)\,t=0\implies t=10.4\,\rm s

It's not clear what you're supposed to find at this particular time... possibly her position vector? In that case, assuming she starts at the origin, her position at time t would be

\vec x=\vec v_0t+\dfrac12\vec at^2

so that after 10.4 s, her position would be

\vec x=(10.1\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\imath+(17.2\,\mathrm m)\,\vec\jmath

which is 19.9 m away from her starting position.

What is the general aerobic activity recommendation for an exercise frequency that is at least five days per week?
Fantom [35]

Explanation:

Minimum of aerobic activity 150 minutes, or a mix of moderates and intensive exercise 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week. We can  extend this practice throughout the week with the instructions. Mild aerobic workouts might include practices like quick strolling or swimming, while activity like running can include strong aerobic activity.

How much work can a 22kw car engine do in 60 seconds
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

13.2 x 10^5 J

Explanation:

Power = work/time

Given

Power = 22kw

= 22 x 1000 = 22000w

Time = 60 secs

Therefore

22000 = work/60

Cross multiply

Work = 22000 x 60

= 1320000

= 13.2 x 10^5J

If the heat necessary to warm 565.0 g of water from a temperature of T1 = 22.0 °C to T2 = 80.0 °C were somehow converted to tran
densk [106]

Answer:

696.83 m/s

Explanation:

m = mass of water = 565 g = 0.565 kg

c = specific heat of water = 4186 J/(kg⁰C)

ΔT = Change in temperature = T₂ - T₁ = 80 - 22 = 58 ⁰C

v = speed gained by water

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy gained by water = heat required to warm water

(0.5) m v² = m c ΔT

(0.5) v² = c ΔT

(0.5) v² = (4186) (58)

v = 696.83 m/s
