Answer:

See the attachment below for the graphics in part (a)

The initial velocity for this time interval is u = 61ft/sec and the final velocity is 0m/s because the car comes to a stop.

This a constant acceleration motion considering the given time interview over which the brakes are applied. So the equals for constant acceleration motion apply here.

Explanation:

The full solution can be found in the attachment below.

An airplane flies 120 km at a constant altitude in a direction 30.0° north of east. a wind is blowing that results in a net hori

astraxan [27]

Best Answer: The net angle between the direction of flight of the aircraft and the wind in the opposing direction is 20. THe component opposing the aircraft is 2.4*cos 20 KN
= 2400 * 0.9397 = 2255.2622 N. The distance covered is 120 Km
The work done by the aircraft overcoming the wind is
= 2255.2622 * 120000 = 270631464 = 2.71 x 10^8 N
As the question is trickily worded as : the work done on the plane by the air (wind) the answer is -2.71 x 10^8 J . (fourth option)

A 0.89 m aqueous solution of an ionic compound with the formula mx has a freezing point of -3.0 ∘c . van't hoff factor?

BigorU [14]

Answer is: Van't Hoff factor (i) for this solution is 1,81.
Change in freezing point from pure solvent to solution: ΔT =i · Kf · b.
Kf - molal freezing-point depression constant for water is 1,86°C/m.
b - molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
b = 0,89 m.
ΔT = 3°C = 3 K.
i = 3°C ÷ (1,86 °C/m · 0,89 m).

i = 1,81.

Now the elevator is moving downward with a velocity of v = -2.8 m/s but accelerating upward with an acceleration of a = 5.5 m/s2

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

160.75 N

Explanation:

The downward velocity has no effect on the force situation, it is only changes in velocity (plus, of course, gravity, which is always there) that require a force. At constant velocity, the bottom spring s_3 is supporting its mass m_3 to balance gravity.

As the elevator slows, though, it also ends up slowing down the spring arrangement, too. However, because the stretching takes time, it means that some damped harmonic motion will be set up in the spring chain.

When the motion has finally damped out, the net force the bottom spring s3 exerts on m3 has two components--that of gravity and of the deceleration of the elevator:

F_3net = m3 * (g + a) = 10.5×(9.81+5.5)= 10.5×15.31= 160.75 N

A weightlifter lifts a 1250-N barbell 2 m in 3 s.How much power was used to lift the barbell?

Vlad [161]

The power is 833.3 W

Explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the work done in lifting the barbell, which is equal to the change in gravitational potential energy of the barbell:

$W=(mg)h$
