They should be bigger as if it is hot the tracks will expand as it is made of metal and then there is more room for it to expand or contract

Answer:

Then the difference of weight between the two cars are:

Δw = 14210 - 5292 = 8918 N

Explanation:

An object's weigh due to the gravitational attraction force of the earth is:

w = mg

            Where: m is the object's mass

                         g is the  gravitational acceleration in the surface earth

                         g = 9.8 m/s2

The the ultralight car's weight is:

w_{uc} = (540)(9.8)

w_{uc} = 5292 N

And the Honda Accord's weight is:

w_{HA} = (1450)(9.8)

w_{HA} = 14210 N

Then the difference of weight between the two cars are:

Δw = 14210 - 5292 = 8918 N

A pirate fires his cannon parallel to the water but 3.5 m above the water. The cannonball leaves the cannon with a velocity of 1
Bumek [7]

Answer:

202.8m

Explanation:

Given that A pirate fires his cannon parallel to the water but 3.5 m above the water. The cannonball leaves the cannon with a velocity of 120 m/s. He misses his target and the cannonball splashes into the briny deep.

First calculate the total time travelled by using the second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Let assume that u = 0

And h = 3.5

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

3.5 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

3.5 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 3.5/4.9

t^2 = 0.7

t = 0.845s

To know how far the cannonball travel, let's use the equation

S = UT + 1/2at^2

But acceleration a = 0

T = 2t

T = 1.69s

S = 120 × 1.69

S = 202.834 m

Therefore, the distance travelled by the cannon ball is approximately 202.8m.
