A 912-kg car is being driven down a straight, level road at a constant speed of 31.5 m/s. When the driver sees a police cruiser
sergejj [24]

Answer:

786.6 N

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 912 kg

initial velocity of car, u = 31.5 m/s

final velocity of car, v = 24.6 m/ s

time, t = 8 s

Let a be the acceleration of the car

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

24.6 = 31.5 + a x 8

a = - 0.8625 m/s^2

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 912 x 0.8625

F = 786.6 N

Thus, the force on the car is 786.6 N.

Long Jump: inital center of mass height of 1.08 m, final center of mass height of 0.42 m, projection velocity of 8.7 m/s, projec
sammy [17]

Answer:

1) The maximum jump height is reached at A. 0.337s

2) The maximum center of mass height off of the ground is B. 1.64m

3) The time of flight is C. 0.834s

4) The distance of jump is B. 7.49m

Explanation:

First of all we need to decompose velocity in its rectangular components, so

v_{xi}=8.7m/s(cos 22.3\°)=8.05m/s= constant\\v_{yi}=8.7m/s(sin 22.3\°)=3.3m/s

1) We use, v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt, as we clear it for t and using the fact that v_{fy}=0 at max height, we obtain t=\frac{v_{iy}}{g} =\frac{3.3m/s}{9,8m/s^{2}} =0.337s

2) We can use the formula y_{max}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2} for t=0.337s, so

y_{max}=1.08m+(3.3m/s)(0.337s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(0.337)^{2}}{2}=1.64m

3) We can use the formula y_{f}=y_{i}+v_{iy}t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}, to find total time of fligth, so 0.42=1.08+3.3t-\frac{(9.8)t^{2}}{2}\\0=-4.9t^{2}+3.3t+0.66, as it is a second-grade polynomial, we find that its positive root is t=0.834s

4) Finally, we use x=v_{x}t=8.05m/s(0.834s)=6.71m, as it has an additional displacement of 0.77m due the leg extension we obtain,

x=6.71m+0.77m=7.48m, aprox x=7.49m

How much gravitational potential energy does a 45.2 kg object have when it is 21.9m above the ground?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational potential energy is

Ep = m · g · h   Assuming that the acceleration is g = 10m/s²

Ep = 45.4 · 10 · 21.9 = 9,942.6 J

A 40 kg boy is moving upwards upwards in a lift with an acceleration of 2 m /s ^2 what would be the weight felt by him if measuu
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

<h2> 48kg</h2>

f = ma \\

w \:  =  \frac{f}{g}  \\

Explanation:

f \:  = ma \\ f - mg = ma \\ f = ma + mg \\ f = 40 \times 2 + 40 \times 10 \\ f = 480

w =  \frac{f}{g}  \\w =   \frac{480}{10}  \\ w = 48kg
