Answer: a. -720m/s^2

b. Yes, airbags will deploy

Explanation:

The formula for acceleration is:

= (Final velocity - Initial velocity)/Time

Final velocity = 0m/s

Initial velocity = 36m/s

Time taken = 0.05s

= (Final velocity - Initial velocity)/Time

= (0 - 36)/0.05

= -36/0.05

= -720m/s^2.

Since it's negative, it shows that there was a deceleration.

2. Yes the airbag will deploy since the acceleration gotten is more than -600 m/s^2.

A 15.0 kg turntable with a radius of 25 cm is covered with a uniform layer of dry ice that has a mass of 9.0 kg. The angular spe

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

ω₂=1.20

Explanation:

Given that

mass of the turn table ,M= 15 kg

mass of the ice ,m= 9 kg

radius ,r= 25 cm

Initial angular speed ,ω₁ = 0.75 rad/s

Initial mass moment of inertia

$I_1=\dfrac{M+m}{2}r^2$

$I_1=\dfrac{15+9}{2}\times 0.25^2\ kg.m^2$

$I_1=0.75\ kg.m^2$

Final mass moment of inertia

$I_2=\dfrac{M}{2}r^2$

$I_2=\dfrac{15}{2}\times 0.25^2\ kg.m^2$

$I_2=0.468\ kg.m^2$

Lets take final speed of the turn table after ice evaporated =ω₂ rad/s

Now by conservation angular momentum

I₁ ω₁ =ω₂ I₂

$\omega_2=\dfrac{0.75\times 0.75}{0.468}\ rad/s$

ω₂=1.20

A jetliner flies at a constant speed covering 467 miles in 3.3 hours. What is the speed of the plane in miles per hour?

stellarik [79]

Answer:

141.152 miles per hour is the speed of the plane in miles per hour

Explanation:

Speed of plane = Total distance travelled/total time taken -

v = D/t

Substituting the given values in the above equation, we get

v = 467/3.3 miles /hour

v = 141.152 miles per hour

141.152 miles per hour is the speed of the plane in miles per hour
