Answer: D) 35.7km × 1 mile/1.609 km

Explanation:

Given that;

We need to convert 35.7km to miles

And we know that 1.609km makes 1 mile = 1.609km/1mile

To convert it to mile we need to obtain the number of miles per kilometre

= 1/(1.609km/mile)

= 1mile/1.609km

Then we can now multiply the conversion rate by the number.

= 35.7km × 1mile/1.609km

= 22.19 miles

Note that the sign must cancel out to give miles.

A spring-loaded gun can fire a projectile to a height h if it is fired straight up. if the same gun is pointed at an angle of 45
Naily [24]
When firing straight up:
v^2 = u^2 - 2gh, where v = final velocity = 0, u = initial velocity, g = gravitational acceleration, h = maximum height attained.

Then,
0 = u^2 - 2gh
u = Sqrt (2gh) ---- (1)

When firing at 45°,
Initial velocity, U = u Sin 45 = Sqrt (2gh)·Sin 45

Maximum height, H = U^2*(Sin Ф)^2/2g

substituting;
H = [Sqrt (2gh)·Sin 45]^2*(Sin 45)^2]/2g
H = [2gh*(Sin 45)^2*(Sin 45)^2]/2g
H = [h*(Sin 45)^4] = h/4

Therefore, maximum height when the gun fires at 45° is a quarter of maximum height when the gun fires vertically up.

A truck speeds up from velocity of 6m/s to 14m/s in 4 seconds. what is the trucks acceleration?
Tanzania [10]

To calculate the acceleration of the truck, we use the equation of motion

v = u + at

Here, v is final velocity of the truck, u is initial velocity of truck, a is acceleration of the truck and t is time taken.

Given,  u = 6 m/s, v = 14 m/s and t = 4 s.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

14 \ m/s = 6 \ m/s + a \times 4 \ s \\\\  a = \frac{14 \ m/s - 6 \ m/s}{ 4 \ s } =  2 \ m /s^2.

Thus,  the truck acceleration is 2 \ m /s^2
