The initial speed of the automobile is 49.84km/hr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Acceleration, a = 1.77 m/s²

Time, t = 6s

Final speed, v = 88 km/h

v = 88 X 0.278 m/s

v = 24.464 m/s

Initial speed, u = ?

We know,

v = u + at

On substituting the value in the formula we get:

24.464 = u + (1.77 X 6)

24.464 = u + 10.62

u = 24.464 - 10.62 m/s

u = 13.844 m/s

Converting u = 13.844 m/s to km/hr

1 m/s = 3.6 km/hr

13.844 m/s = 13.844 X 3.6 km/hr

u = 49.84 km/hr

Therefore, the initial speed of the automobile is 49.84km/hr

anyanavicka [17]

Answer: 5m/L^2

Explanation:

Inertial I = mr^2 where r = distance from axis of rotation, while m is the mass of the object.

I = 2[m(1L/2)^2] + 2[m(3L/2)^2] = 2m×. 25/L^2+ 3m×2. 25/L^2= 0. 5m/l^2 +4. 5m/l^2

= 5m/l^2.

Kathy 82 kg performer standing on a diving board at the carnival dive straight down into a small pool of water. Just before stri

mixas84 [53]

Solution :

Given weight of Kathy = 82 kg

Her speed before striking the water, $V_o$ = 5.50 m/s

Her speed after entering the water, $V_f$ = 1.1 m/s

Time = 1.65 s

Using equation of impulse,

$dP = F \times dT$

Here, F = the force ,

dT = time interval over which the force is applied for

= 1.65 s

dP = change in momentum

dP = m x dV

$= m \times [V_f - V_o]$

= 82 x (1.1 - 5.5)

= -360 kg

∴ the net force acting will be

$F=\frac{dP}{dT}$

$F=\frac{-360}{1.65}$

= 218 N
