Complete Question:
One simple model for a person running the 100 m dash is to assume the sprinter runs with constant acceleration until reaching top speed, then maintains that speed through the finish line. If a sprinter reaches his top speed of 11.5 m/s in 2.24 s, what will be his total time?
Answer:
total time = 6.24 s
Explanation:
Using the equation of motion:
v = u + at
initial speed, u = 0 m/s
v = 11.5 m/s
t = 2.24 s
11.5 = 0 + 2.24a
a = 11.5/2.24
a = 5.13 m/s²
For the total time spent by the sprinter:
s = ut + 0.5at²
100 = 0.5 * 5.13 * t²
t² = 100/2.567
t² = 38.957
t = √38.957
t = 6.24 s
Answer:
, the minus meaning west.
Explanation:
We know that linear momentum must be conserved, so it will be the same before (
) and after (
) the explosion. We will take the east direction as positive.
Before the explosion we have 
.
After the explosion we have pieces 1 and 2, so 
.
These equations must be vectorial but since we look at the instants before and after the explosions and the bomb fragments in only 2 pieces the problem can be simplified in one dimension with direction east-west.
Since we know momentum must be conserved we have:
Which means (since we want 
and 
):
So for our values we have:
Does Physics involve science? Because I think there's a chemical bond between us. :3
Answer:
A force unit is defined as the product of a mass unit and a unit of acceleration.
