While running around the track at school, Milt notices that he runs due East in the 100m homestretch and due West on the 100m ba

ckstretch. To train for the 800 m event, he runs both the 100 m homestretch and the 100m backstretch in 12.2 seconds. How do Mills velocities on the homestretch and backstretch compare

Answer:

The magnitude of both velocities will be same but direction will be opposite.

Explanation:

Distance on Homestretch = d1 = 100 m

Distance on backstretch = d2 = 100 m

Time = t = 12.2 s

Magnitude of velocity on Homestretch = V1 = d1/t = 100/12.2 = 8.196 m/s

Magnitude of velocity on backstretch = V2 = d2/t = 100/12.2 = 8.196 m/s  

if we look at the racecourse, we will come to know that runner runs on homestretch and backstretch in opposite direction. Hence, magnitude of velocities will be same but direction will be opposite.

What is the derivative of x^2 - x + 3 at the point x = 5?​
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

9

Explanation:

d/dx (x² - x + 3)

= 2x - 1

when x = 5,

2x-1

= 2(5) - 1

= 10 - 1

= 9

A race car has a velocity of 382 km/h to the right. If the car’s mass is 705 kg and the driver’s mass is 65 kg, what force is ne
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Given: Vi = 382 km/h, Vf = 0 km/h, Mc = 705 kg, Md = 65 kg, Δt = 12

Required: Δx

F = Δp / Δt

  = \frac{(Mc+Md)Vf-(Mc+Md)Vi}{t} \\\\= 6.81 * 10x^{3} N [left]\\\\x=\frac{1}{2} (Vi+Vf)\\ \\ = 637m[right]

Using the following equation, find in seconds 145m = 9 m/s x t-35m
Zina [86]

Answer:

t = 20 s

Explanation:

145 m = 9 m/s × t – 35m

We can obtain the value of t in seconds by doing the following:

145 m = 9 m/s × t – 35m

Add 35 m to both side as shown below:

145 m + 35 m = 9 m/s × t – 35m + 35 m

180 m = 9 m/s × t

Divide both side by 9 m/s

t = 180 m / 9 m/s

t = 20 s

Therefore, the value of t is 20 seconds.

Moving from the element with atomic number 10 to atomic number 11 on the periodic table, there is a change in reactivity. In thr
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ne has its outside shell full of electrons; therefore, its reaction with other elements is minimal if at all. Na, the next element, has 1 more proton and 1 more electron. More importantly that added electron is in the outside shell. It can fill that shell by ADDing 7 more electrons or LOSing the one electron. Obviously, it loses the one electron and it does so with gusto which makes Na a very reaction element while Ne is not reactive at all. Now follow oobleck's instructions, add what you read to what I've written,then summarize all of it in your own words.
