As a car is driven south in a straight line with decreasing speed, fhe acceleration of the car must be

The answer is directed northward. The acceleration will be negative, since the car is decelerating. Thus the power that is slowing it down must be performing in the opposite direction to that which the car is traveling. Or in other words, when speed is lessening, acceleration is in the opposed direction to velocity. The change is CONTRASTING the velocity and so it slows it down.

A 250 kg flatcar 25 m long is moving with a speed of 3.0 m/s along horizontal frictionless rails. A 61 kg worker starts walking

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

x=31.09m

Explanation:

p1=p2

The momentum of flatcar and the momentum of the worker so

The velocity of the worker is:

$m_{f}*v_{f}=m_{w}*v_{w}\\\\v_{f}=\frac{m_{f}*v_{f}}{m_{w}}\\v_{f}=\frac{61kg*3.0\frac{m}{s}}{250kg}\\v_{f}=0.732\frac{m}{s}$

The total motion has a total velocity and is

$Vt=v_{w}+v_{f}\\Vt=0.732\frac{m}{s}+3.0\frac{m}{s}\\Vt=3.732\frac{m}{s}$

The time the worker take walking is

$t=\frac{x}{v_{w}}\\t=\frac{25m}{3\frac{m}{s}}=8.33s$

Now the total time and the total velocity determinate the motion of tha flatcar how far has moved

$x=t*Vt\\x=8.33s*3.732\frac{m}{s} \\x=31.09m$

The sun <u><em>appears</em></u> brighter than any other star.

(It isn't really, but it looks that way because it's much much much much much much closer to us than any other star.)

n deep space, sphere A of mass 47 kg is located at the origin of an x axis and sphere B of mass 110 kg is located on the axis at

Volgvan

Answer:

a)-1.014x $10^{-7$ J

b)3.296 x $10^{-7$ J

Explanation:

For Sphere A:

mass 'Ma'= 47kg

xa= 0

For sphere B:

mass 'Mb'= 110kg

xb=3.4m

a)the gravitational potential energy is given by

$U_{i$ = -GMaMb/ d

$U_{i$ = - 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 47 x 110/ 3.4 => -1.014x $10^{-7$ J

b) at d= 0.8m (3.4-2.6) and $U_{i$ =-1.014x $10^{-7$ J

The sum of potential and kinetic energies must be conserved as the energy is conserved.

$K_{i$ + $U_{i$ = $K_{f$ + $U_{f$

As sphere starts from rest and sphere A is fixed at its place, therefore $K_{i$ is zero

$U_{i$ = $K_{f$ + $U_{f$

The final potential energy is

$U_{f$ = - GMaMb/d

Solving for ' $K_{f$ '

$K_{f$ = $U_{i$ + GMaMb/d => -1.014x $10^{-7$ + 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 47 x 110/ 0.8

$K_{f$ = 3.296 x $10^{-7$ J

On a distant planet, a rock falls in 48.4 s from the top of a 1.10e+02 m cliff to the planet surface below. What is the accelera

pav-90 [236]

this can be solve using the formala of free fall

t = sqrt( 2y/ g)

where t is the time of fall

y is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity

48.4 s = sqrt (2 (1.10e+02 m)/ g)

G = 0.0930 m/s2

The velocity at impact

V = sqrt(2gy)

= sqrt( 2 ( 0.0930 m/s2)( 1.10e+02 m)

V = 4.523 m/s
