Gravitational potential energy = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height
GPE=mgh
4620=mx9.81x8.4
4620/(9.81x8.4)=m=56.1 kg

The driver of a car slams on the brakes, causing the car to slow down at a rate of
sdas [7]

Answer:

A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Final velocity (V) = 0

Time (t) =?

Initial velocity (U) =?

A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.

Let us obtain an express for time (t)

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)

a = V/t

Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)

V = s/t

a = s/t^2

Cross multiply

a x t^2 = s

Divide both side by a

t^2 = s/a

Take the square root of both side

t = √(s/a)

Now we can obtain the time as follow

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Time (t) =..?

t = √(s/a)

t = √(256/26)

t = 3.14 secs

Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.

V = U + at

Final velocity (V) = 0

Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2

Time (t) = 3.14 sec

Initial velocity (U) =.?

0 = U – 26x3.14

0 = U – 81.64

Collect like terms

U = 81.64 ft/s

Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

A 73.9 kg weight-watcher wishes to climb a
Tresset [83]

The height to which the weight-watcher must climb to work off the equivalent 991 (food) Calories is 0.59 Km

<h3>How to determine the energy. </h3>

1 food calorie = 103 calories

Therefore,

991 food calories = 991 × 103

991 food calories = 102073 calories

Multiply by 4.2 to express in joule (J)

991 food calories = 102073 × 4.2

991 food calories = 428706.6 J

<h3>How to determine the height </h3>
  • Energy (E) = 428706.6 J
  • Mass (m) = 73.9 kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Height (h) =?

E = mgh

Divide both side by mg

h = E / mg

h = 428706.6 / (73.9 × 9.8)

h = 591.95 m

Divide by 1000 to express in km

h = 591.95 / 1000

h = 0.59 Km

A runner is moving at a constant speed of 8.00 m/s around a circular track. If the distance from the runner to the center of the
Genrish500 [490]

Answer: Last option

2.27 m/s2

Explanation:

As the runner is running at a constant speed then the only acceleration present in the movement is the centripetal acceleration.

If we call a_c to the centripetal acceleration then, by definition

a_c =w^2r = \frac{v^2}{r}

in this case we know the speed of the runner

v =8.00\ m/s

The radius "r" will be the distance from the runner to the center of the track

r = 28.2\ m

a_c = \frac{8^2}{28.2}\ m/s^2

a_c = 2.27\ m/s^2

The answer is the last option

According to the spectrum seen below, which set of photons were absorbed by the element?
Effectus [21]
The correct choice is ' D ' .

These are the numbers that are missing from the set of blocks at
the top, and also the bars missing from the graph in the middle.

I have no idea what the strip at the bottom labeled "full energy spectrum"
is trying to tell us.
