Racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speeds. A typical greyhound track has turns that are 45 m diamete

r semicircles. A greyhound can run around these turns at a constant speed of 16 m/s .What is its acceleration in m/s^2?What is its acceleration in units of g?

Answer:

In m/s^2:

a=11.3778 m/s^2

In units of g:

a=1.161 g

Explanation:

Since the racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speed so we are going use the following formula of acceleration for circular paths.

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where:

v is the speed

r is the radius

Now,

a=\frac{16^2}{45/2}\\ a=11.3778 m/s^2

In g units:

a=\frac{11.3778\ g}{9.8}\\ a=1.161\ g

Latitude and longitude are the two coordinates that determine a specific point on the Earth’s surface. How does knowing the loca
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

hey sandra! i hope this will help you!

Explanation:

The geographic coordinate system is a reference system that uses the two angular latitude (north or south) and longitude (east or west) coordinates to determine the positions of the land surface points. These two angular coordinates measured from the center of the Earth are from a spherical coordinate system that is aligned with its axis of rotation. These coordinates are usually expressed in sexagesimal degrees:

Latitude measures the angle between any point and the equator. Latitude lines are called parallel and are circles parallel to the equator on the Earth's surface. Latitude is the distance between any point and Ecuador, measured on the meridian that passes through that point.

• All points located on the same parallel have the same latitude.

• Those who are in the north of Ecuador receive the denomination North (N).

• Those who are in the south of Ecuador receive the denomination South (S).

• It is measured from 0º to 90º.

• The latitude of 0º corresponds to Ecuador.

• The North and South poles have latitude 90º N and 90º S respectively.

The length measures the angle along the equator from any point on Earth. It is accepted that Greenwich in London is length 0 in most modern societies. The lines of length are maximum circles that pass through the poles and are called meridians.

• All points located on the same meridian have the same length.

• Those who are east of Meridian Zero receive the designation East (E).

• Those who are west of Meridian Zero receive the denomination West (O).

• It is measured from 0º to 180º.

• The Greenwich meridian corresponds to the length 0º.

By combining these two angles, the position of any point on the Earth's surface can be expressed.

Which equation describes the line containing the points (-2, 3) and (1, 2)​
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

y =  \frac{ - 1}{3}x +  \frac{7}{3}

Explanation:

\frac{y - 3}{2 - 3}  =  \frac{x + 2}{1 + 2}  \\  \ - y + 3 =  \frac{x + 2}{3}  \\  y =   \frac{ - 1}{3}x  +  \frac{7}{3}

A student pushed a box 32.0 m across a smooth, horizontal floor using a constant force of 124 N. If the force was applied for 8.
Brilliant_brown [7]

The power developed is 500 W ( to the nearest Watt)

Power(P) is the rate at which work is done. Work done (W) is the product of the force applied on the object and the displacement (s) made by the point of application of the force.

P = \frac{W}{t}

W= F*s

Therefore,

P=\frac{F*s}{t}

Substitute the given values of force , displacement and time

F = 124 N,s = 32.0 m,t = 8.0 s

P =\frac{W*s}{t} =\frac{124N*22.0s}{8.0s} =496 W

Thus the Power can be rounded off to the nearest value of 500 W

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.37 L at 2.80×102 K and 1.15 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.68 L and
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

p_2 = 1.76 atm

Explanation:

given data:

v_1 = 2.37 L

v_2 = 1.68 L

p_1 =1.15 atm

p_2 = ?

t_1 = 280 K

t_2 = 304 K

from Gas Law Equation

, WE HAVE

\frac{p_1 v_1}{t_1} =\frac{p_2 v_2}{t_2}

Putting the values

\frac{1.15*2.37}{280}  =\frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}

9.733*10^{-3} = \frac{p_2 *1.68}{304}

9.733*10^{-3}*304 = p_2*1.68

\frac{9.733*10^{-3}*304}{1.68} =p_2

p_2= 1.76 atm
