s = 25m

v = ?

a = 9.81m/s²

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2x9.81x25

v² = 490.5

v = √490.5

= 22.15m/s

Explain the movement in the sky

Montano1993 [528]

The motion of planets is separate to the motion of stars. Like everything in the sky, they rise in the east, and set in the west, because of the earth's rotation. But night by night, their position at a given time changes because of their orbit around the sun.

A physics professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle

tatiyna

Answer:

a) 17.8 m/s

b) 28.3 m

Explanation:

Given:

angle A = 53.0°

sinA = 0.8

cosA = 0.6

width of the river,d = 40.0 m,

the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp h = 15.0 m,

The river itself was 100 m below the ramp H = 100 m,

(a) find speed v

vertical displacement

$-h= vsinA\times t-gt^2/2$

putting values h=15 m, v=0.8

$-15 = 0.8vt - 4.9t^2$ ............. (1)

horizontal displacement d = vcosA×t = 0.6×v ×t

so v×t = d/0.6 = 40/0.6

plug it into (1) and get

$-15 = 0.8\times40/0.6 - 4.9t^2$

solving for t we get

t = 3.734 s

also, v = (40/0.6)/t = 40/(0.6×3.734) = 17.8 m/s

(b) If his speed was only half the value found in (a), where did he land?

v = 17.8/2 = 8.9 m/s

vertical displacement = $-H =v sinA t - gt^2/2$

⇒ $4.9t^2 - 8.9\times0.8t - 100 = 0$

t = 5.30 s

then

d =v×cosA×t = 8.9×0.6×5.30= 28.3 m

What is the speed of a car going v=1.000mph in SI units? Notice that you will need to change from miles to meters and from hours

Paha777 [63]

Answer: speed = 446.4m/s

Explanation: 1000mph implies that 1000 miles / 1 hour.

But it has been given that 1mile = 1609m,

hence

1000 miles = 1000 * 1609 = 1,609,000m

And I hour = 3600s

Hence 1000mph = 1,609,000/ 3600

1000 = 446.4m/s
