The position-time equation for a certain train is xf=2.8m+(8.1m/s)t+(2.9m/s^2)t^2.

1 answer:

3 0

The formula without numbers is
$xf = xi + vxi(t) + \frac{1}{2} (a) {t}^{2}$
do the initial velocity would be
8.1 m/s
and the acceleration would be
2.9 m/s^2

Agent Bond is standing on a bridge, 17 m above the road below, and his pursuers are getting too close for comfort. He spots a fl

faust18 [17]

Answer:

2 poles

Explanation:

We are told Agent Bond is standing on a bridge, 17 m above the road below.

Now, the bed of the truck is 1.5 m above the road.

It means the distance hewill need to fall = 17 - 1.5 = 15.5 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Thus, to find the time, we will use the equation;

s = ut + ½at²

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

15.5 = 0 + ½9.8t²

Multiply through by 2 to give;

15.5 × 2 = 9.8t²

31 = 9.8t²

t² = 31/9.8

t = √(31/9.8)

t = 1.78 sec

We are told that he spots a flatbed truck approaching at 28 m/s and that the telephone poles are 22m apart.

Thus; The truck will pass the poles at a rate of; Velocity/distance between poles = 28/22 = 1.273 poles per second

Since, we got the time to be 1.78 seconds, then we can find the number of poles by multiplying it with the rate of poles per seconds.

Thus;

Number of poles = 1.78 second × 1.273 poles/ seconds = 2.27 poles

This is approximately 2 poles

Light and sound waves both share what characteristic?

Phoenix [80]

Answer: (Light and sound both require a medium in which to travel)

Explanation: Sound and light always have the means to travel and get somewhere as fast as possible. Light is always faster than sound but it does not matter because they both almost always get where they want.

Part 2. light was composed of particles or waves, a wave-particle dual nature soon was found to be characteristic of electrons as well. The evidence for the description of light as waves was well established at the turn of the century when the photoelectric effect introduced firm evidence of a particle nature as well. basically when light hits a metal object . :)
