Answer:

Riding in an elevator used to be dangerous business — until Elisha Otis, of Otis Elevator Company fame, invented a device that could prevent a passenger elevator from falling if its rope broke. It debuted precisely 160 years ago at the E.V. Haughwout and Company store in Manhattan on March 23, 1857

Answer:

40mph

Explanation:

1st leg DATA:

time = 3 hrs ; speed = r mph ; distance = 3r miles

------------

2nd leg DATA:

speed = r mph ; distance = 12 miles

--------------------------------

3r + 12 = 132

3r = 120

rate = 40 mph

The position-time equation for a certain train is

astraxan [27]

Answer:

$a=4.8m/s^2$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the acceleration in terms of position is defined as its second derivative:

$a=\frac{d^2x(t)}{dt^2}=\frac{d^2}{dt^2}(2.9+8.8t+2.4t^2)$

The purpose here is derive x(t) twice as follows:

$a=\frac{d^2x(t)}{dt^2}=\frac{d}{dt}(8.8+2*2.4*t)\\ \\a=4.8m/s^2$

Thus, the acceleration turns out 4.8 meters per squared seconds.

Best regards.
