Answer:
Only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
Explanation:
- Once released from the initial push, in absence of friction, the shopping cart would continue moving forward at a constant speed forever.
- As it would move at a constant speed, no net force would be acting on it.
- So, if it is gradually slowing, there must be a net force producing an acceleration in a direction opposite to the movement.
- This force is the kinetic friction force, and is the only force acting on the cart in the horizontal direction.
- As any friction force, opposes to the relative movement between the cart and the horizontal floor, which means that is directed backward.
- This is consistent with the direction of the acceleration of the cart.
Answer:
Take-off velocity = v = 81.39[m/s]
Explanation:
We can calculate the takeoff speed easily, using the following kinematic equation.
where:
a = acceleration = 4[m/s^2]
x = distance = 750[m]
vi = initial velocity = 25 [m/s]
vf = final velocity
![v_{f}=\sqrt{(25)^{2}+(2*4*750) } \\v_{f}=81.39[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_%7Bf%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%2825%29%5E%7B2%7D%2B%282%2A4%2A750%29%20%7D%20%5C%5Cv_%7Bf%7D%3D81.39%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
Answer:
113 miles
Explanation:
45.00 x 2.50= 1.12.5 so 113 miles in 2.50 hours
