Answer:

Length of the ramp, l = 31.22 feet

Explanation:

It is given that,

A doorway is 2.45 ft above the ground, AB = 2.45 ft

Angle between the ground and the ramp is, \theta=4.5^{\circ}

Applying trigonometry,

sin\theta=\dfrac{AB}{AC}

AC=\dfrac{AB}{sin\theta}

AC=\dfrac{2.45}{sin(4.5)}

AC = 31.22 ft

So, the length of the ramp is 31.22 feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 124m in 26s
krek1111 [17]
It's average speed during that 26 seconds was about 4.77 m/s. Without seeing the graph, we can't tell if it was going faster or slower at any particular time during that period. All we can tell is its average for the full interval.

The floor of a railroad flatcar is loaded with loose crates having a coefficient of static friction of 0.320 with the floor. If
mart [117]

Answer:  29.50 m

Explanation: In order to calculate the higher accelation to stop a train  without moving the crates inside the wagon which is traveling at constat speed we have to use the second Newton law so that:

f=μ*N the friction force is equal to coefficient of static friction  multiply the normal force (m*g).

f=m.a=μ*N= m*a= μ*m*g= m*a

then

a=μ*g=0.32*9.8m/s^2= 3.14 m/s^2

With this value we can determine the short distance to stop the train

as follows:

x= vo*t- (a/2)* t^2

Vf=0= vo-a*t then t=vo/a

Finally; x=vo*vo/a-a/2*(vo/a)^2=vo^2/2a= (49*1000/3600)^2/(2*3.14)=29.50 m

If a ball with an original velocity of zero is dropped from a tall structure and it takes 7 seconds to hit the ground, what velo
Colt1911 [192]
The velocity of the ball when it reaches the ground is equal to B. 68.6 m/s. This value was obtained from the formula Vf = Vi + at. Vf is the final velocity. Vi is the initial velocity. The acceleration is "a", while the time of travel is "t". The solution is:

<span>Vf = Vi + at
</span>Vf = 0 + (-9.8 m/s^2) (7 s)
Vf = -68.6 m/s

The negative sign denotes the direction of the ball.

What is the approximate amount of thrust you need to apply to the lander to keep it's velocity roughly constant
earnstyle [38]

The approximate amount of thrust(force) you need to apply to the lander to

keep its velocity roughly constant is zero.

<h3>What is Newton's second law of motion?</h3>

Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration the force acting

on the object is directly proportional to its rate of change of momentum.

F = m a

If the object is moving with uniform velocity, it simply means that the

acceleration is zero, and  the corresponding force will also be zero.
