Answer:

a=3.185\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity for a given period of time, we can express this in the next formula:

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} =\frac{v_{1}-v_{0}}{t_{1}-t_{0}}

In this case the values are:

v_{0}=0\\v_{1}= 21.5 m/s\\t_{0}=0\\t_{1}= 6.75 s\\

Inserting known values, the acceleration is:

a= \frac{21.5 m/s}{6.75 s} \\a=3.185\frac{m}{s^2}

Answer:

Acceleration will be a=3.185m/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given final velocity v = 21.5 m/sec

Time t = 6.75 sec

As cheetah starts from rest so initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

From first equation of motion we know that v = u+at, here v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time

So 21.5=0+a\times 6.75

a=3.185m/sec^2

Star a has a parallax angle of 0.02 arcseconds, and star b has a parallax of angle of 0.1 arcseconds. which star is more distant
Studentka2010 [4]
<span>Star a is more distant and is approximately 5 times as far away as star b Parallax is the change in angle that one must do in order to observe the same object from different locations. The further away an object is, the smaller the parallax is. As the angles approach zero, the trig functions tend to be fairly linear. And 0.1 arc seconds and 0.02 arc seconds are close enough to zero for this to hold true. Since the parallax for star a is smaller than the parallax for star b, it is the more distant star. And since 0.1 divided by 0.02 = 5, it is approximately 5 times further away than star b.</span>

A truck initially traveling at a speed of 22 m/s increases at a constant rate of 2.4 m/s^2 for 3.2s. What is the total distance
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

82.7 m

Explanation:

u= 22m/s

a= 2.4 m/s^2.

t= 3.2 secs

Therefore the distance travelled can be calculated as follows

S= ut + 1/2at^2

= 22 × 3.2 + 1/2 × 2.4 × 3.2^2

= 70.4 + 1/2×24.58

= 70.4 + 12.29

= 82.7 m

Hence the distance travelled by the truck is 82.7 m

At the outer edge of a rotating space habitat, 130 m from the center, the rotational acceleration is g. What is the rotational a
enyata [817]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

R1 = 130 m

R2 = 65 m

w^2R = g

Assume, g = 9.81 m/s^2

w^2 = 9.81/130

w = 0.275 rad/s

At R2 = 65 m

g = w^2R

= (0.275^2) × 65

= 4.905 m/s^2

In conclusion,

g × R = k

g1/R1 = g2/R2

g2 = (g1 × 65)/130

= g1 ×1/2

= g1/2

The temperature at a point (x, y) on a flat metal plate is given by T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x2 + y2), where T is measured in °C and x,
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

dt/dx = -0.373702

dt/dy =  -1.121107

Explanation:

Given data

T(x, y) = 54/(7 + x² + y²)

to find out

rate of change of temperature with respect to distance

solution

we know function

T(x, y) = 54 /( 7 + x² + y²)

so derivative it x and y direction i.e

dt/dx = -54× 2x / (7 +x² + y²)²    .........................1

dt/dy = -54× 2y / (7 + x² + y²)²      .........................2

now put the value point (1,3) as x = 1 and y = 3 in equation 1 and 2

dt/dx = -54× 2(1) / (7 +(1)² + (3)²)²  

dt/dx = -0.373702

and

dt/dy =  -54× 2(3) / (7 + (1)² + (3)²)²

dt/dy =  -1.121107
