Answer:

350 ft/s²

Explanation:

First, convert mph to ft/s.

58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s

Given:

v₀ = 85.1 ft/s

v = 0 ft/s

t = 0.24 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s

a = -354 ft/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².

Which set of shapes contains members that are always similar to one another?
Colt1911 [192]
<span>The correct answer is option C. i.e.Equilateral triangles. All equilateral triangle have equal sides. Due to this these set of shapes will always be similar. Similarity in the sense that only the size of the triangles can change to large or smaller but the shape will be be similar always.</span>

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

v_{f}=6.47m/s

Explanation:

Given data

Distance d=7.00 ft= 7*(1/3.281) =2.1336m

Initial velocity vi=0m/s

To find

Final velocity

Solution

From Kinematic equation we know that:

v_{f}^{2} =v_{i}^{2}+2gd\\v_{f}^{2}=0+2(9.81m/s^{2} ) (2.1336m)\\v_{f}^{2}=41.86\\v_{f}=\sqrt{41.86}\\v_{f}=6.47m/s

In what sense can a transformer be considered an electrical lever? What does it multiply? What does it not multiply?
liberstina [14]

Answer:

This is because it steps up or steps down electrical voltage. It multiplies either voltage (if it is a voltage transformer )or current (if it is a current transformer), but it does not multiply electrical power.

Explanation:

A transformer steps up or steps down electrical voltage, by transmitting power at a voltage, V₁ and Current I₁ at one terminal, to a voltage, V₂ and Current I₂ at its other terminals, just like a lever transmits force from one point to another. Since the power transmitted remains the same, (energy per unit time remains constant), I₁V₁ = I₂V₂ ⇒ I₁/I₂ = V₂/V₁ = n (the turns ratio of the transformer). So, the turns ratio will determine if its a step-up or step-down transformer. V₂ = nV₁. So, if V₁ > V₂ it is a step down transformer and if V₁ < V₂ it is a step-up transformer.It multiplies either voltage (if it is a voltage transformer )or current (if it is a current transformer), but it does not multiply electrical power, since P = IV = constant for the transformer.
