Answer: The California Current and the Gulf Stream.

Explanation:The Gulf Stream is on the East coast it runs southward to northward While The California Current which is also a part of the North Pacific Gyre moves southward along the westward coast if America and ends off at the southward Baja California peninsula.

The California Current is a Pacific Ocean current.

Other Currents in America are Humboldt Current, the Canary Current, the Benguela Current, and the Somali Current.

A 286-kg motorcycle is accelerating up along a ramp that is inclined 31.6° above the horizontal. The propulsion force pushing th
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The acceleration motorcycle

a = 5.13 m / s²

Explanation:

Now to determine the acceleration of the motorcycle

Use the force to analysis motion

∑ F = m * a

∑ F = E - D - m*g * sin ( β ) = m * a

E = 3168 N

D = 230 N

β = 31.6 °

3168 N - 230 N - 286 kg * 9.8 m / s² * sin ( 31.6° ) = 286 kg * a

Now solve to a'

a = [ 3168 N - 230 N - 286 kg * 9.8  m / s² * sin ( 31.6° ) ] / (286 kg)

a = 5.13 m / s²

A 55.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300. What h
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

161.86 N

Explanation:

mass of box m= 55.0 kg

weight of the box, mg= 55×9.81

g here is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/sec^2

coefficient of friction between the box and the surface μ= 0.3

the friction force F_s= μmg= 0.3×55×9.81

=161.86 N

to move the ball horizontal force required is 161.86 N

a motorcycle accelerates from 15 m/s to 20 m/s over a distance of 50 meters. what is its average acceleration?
devlian [24]
For this, you need the v-squared equation, which is v(final)² = v(initial)² + 2aΔx The averate acceleration is thus a = (v(final)² - v(initial)²) / 2Δx = (20² - 15²) / 2(50) = 175 / 100 = 1.75 m/s² So the average acceleration is 1.75 m/s²

A 2430 pound roller coaster starts from rest and is launched such that it crests a 105 ft high hill with a speed of 59 mph. The
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of roller coaster is W=2430\ pound

mass of roller coaster m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{2430}{32.2}=75.45

Distance traveled by roller coaster d=396\ ft

drag force f_d=85\ pounds

velocity at top v=59 mph\approx 86.53\ ft/s

Suppose E is the initial energy

Conserving Energy at bottom and top

E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh+f_d\cdot d

E=0.5\times 75.45\times 86.53^2+2430\times 105+85\times 396

E=2.9\times 10^5\ foot-pound
