Stella [2.4K]4 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

Average acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.

a = Δv / Δt

a = (63 m/s − 25 m/s) / (17 s − 6 s)

a ≈ 3.45 m/s²

The local high school is installing new bleachers at the stadium and must also add handrails to meet code. The students know the
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The handrails must be approximately 10.63 meters long

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The height of the bleachers, h = 8 m

The depth of the bleachers, d = 7 m

The length of the hand rails to go along the bleachers from bottom to top is given by Pythagoras' Theorem as follows;

The length of the hand rail = √(d² + h²)

∴ The length of the hand rail = √(7² + 8²) = √113 ≈ 10.63

In order for the handrails to go along the bleachers from top to bottom, they must be approximately 10.63 meters long.

How does metamorphic rock change into another type of metamorphic rock?
Marrrta [24]
Metamorphic rocks are formed by tremendous heat, great pressure, and chemical reactions. To change it into another type of metamorphic rock you have to reheat it and bury it deeper again beneath the Earth's surface.

Hope this helped! :)

What are 7 examples of potential energy
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

<em>Hewo Otaku Kun Here! (UwU)</em>

Explanation:

1. A rock sitting at the edge of a cliff has potential energy. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy.

2. Tree branches high up in a tree have potential energy because they can fall to the ground.

3. A stick of dynamite has chemical potential energy that would be released when the activation energy from the fuse comes into contact with the chemicals.

4. The food we eat has chemical potential energy because as our body digests it, it provides us with energy for basic metabolism.

5. A stretched spring in a pinball machine has elastic potential energy and can move the steel ball when released.

6. When a crane swings a wrecking ball up to a certain height, it gains more potential energy and has the ability to crash through buildings.

7. A set of double "A" batteries in a remote control car possess chemical potential energy which can supply electricity to run the car.

<em>happy to help!</em>

A roller coaster starts from rest at its highest point and then descends on its (frictionless) track. Its speed is 36 m/s when i
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

its speed when its height was half that of its starting point is 25.46 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

final speed of the roller coaster, v = 36 m/s

Applying general equation of motion;

V² = U² + 2gh

where;

V is the final speed of the roller coaster

U is the initial speed of the roller coaster = 0

h is the height attained at a given velocity

36² = 0 + (2 x 9.8)h

1296 = 19.6 h

h = 1296/19.6

h = 66.1224 m

when its height was half that of its starting point, h₂ = ¹/₂ h

h₂ = ¹/₂(66.1224 m) = 33.061 m

At h = 33.061 m, V = ?

V² = U² + 2gh

V² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 33.061

V² = 648

V = √648

V = 25.46 m/s

Therefore, its speed when its height was half that of its starting point is 25.46 m/s
