(99 POINTS) While driving her new Camaro at 20.0 m/s down a four-lane highway, Jessica comes up behind a slow-moving dump truck

and decides to pass in the left-hand lane. If Jessica can accelerate at a rate of 5.0 m/s2, how long will it take for her to reach a speed of 30.0 m/s?

Answer:

To go from 20.0 to 30.0 m/s, that is a velocity change of 10.0 m/s.

From the definition of acceleration,

a = (velocity change)/(time required)

In this case you know that a = 5.0 m/s^2, so

time = (10.0 m/s)/(5.0 m/s^2)

= 2.0 seconds

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

There is a velocity change of 10.0 m/s.

a = (velocity change)/(time required)  

From this a = 5.0 m/s^2, so

time = (10.0 m/s)/(5.0 m/s^2)

= 2.0 seconds

Is the magnitude of the acceleration of the center of mass of spool A greater than, less than, or equal to the magnitude of the
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The acceleration of the centre of mass of spool A is equal to the magnitude of the acceleration of the centre of mass of spool B.

Explanation:

From the image attached, the description from the complete question shows that the two spools are of equal masses (same weight due to same acceleration due to gravity), have the same inextensible wire with negligible mass is attached to both of them over a frictionless pulley; meaning that the tension in the wire is the same on both ends.

And for the acceleration of both spools, we mention the net force.

The net force acting on a body accelerates the body in the same direction as that in which the resultant is applied.

For this system, the net force on either spool is exactly the same in magnitude because the net force is a difference between the only two forces acting on the spools; the tension in the wire and their similar respective weights.

With the net force and mass, for each spool equal, from

ΣF = ma, we get that a = ΣF/m

Meaning that the acceleration of the identical spools is equal also.

Hope this Helps!

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer: Participating in all of the above can improve flexibility.

Explanation:

A practice that helps in improving or developing inherent power in order to bring peace and harmony to the body of a person is called yoga.

Yoga includes different postures that also help in providing flexibility to the body.

Pilates is another method of providing muscular strength and low impact flexibility to a human body.

Swimming also a good exercise that provides flexibility.

Thus, we can conclude that participating in all of the above can improve flexibility.
