Answer:

a. 8.3 minutes average distance from earth to the sun

d. 93 miles or 150 million km

Explanation:

The distance between the earth and the sun is defined as an astronomical unit (AU). It takes 8.3 minutes to go from earth to the sun at the speed of light. That distance has a length of 150 million Kilometers or 93 miles.  

It is common to see in planet charts that distance to the sun are compared in astronomical units. In the case of Mars is 1.524 AU away from the sun.

A life preserver is thrown from an helicopter straight down to a person in distress. The initial velocity of the life preserver
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:29.627 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity of life preserver(u) is 1.6 m/s

it takes 2.3 s to reach the water

using equation of motion

v=u+at

v=1.6+9.81\times 2.3

v=24.163 m/s

Let s be the height of life preserver

v^2-u^2=2gs

24.163^2-1.6^2=2\times 9.81\times s

s=\frac{581.29}{2\times 9.81}

s=29.627 m

a 1210 kg roller coaster car is moving 6.33 m/s. as it approaches the station, brakes slow it down to 2.38 m/s over a distance o
Stels [109]

Answer:

4960 N

Explanation:

First, find the acceleration.

Given:

v₀ = 6.33 m/s

v = 2.38 m/s

Δx = 4.20 m

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(2.38 m/s)² = (6.33 m/s)² + 2a (4.20 m)

a = -4.10 m/s²

Next, find the force.

F = ma

F = (1210 kg) (-4.10 m/s²)

F = -4960 N

The magnitude of the force is 4960 N.
