<em>Water pipes burst because the water inside them expands is it gets close to freezing, and this causes an increase in pressure inside the pipe. When the pressure gets too high for the pipe to contain, it ruptures.</em>
Answer:
a) t =12[s]; b) x = 348[m]
Explanation:
We can solve this problem using the following kinematics equations:
a)
where:
vf = final velocity = 12 [m/s]
vo= initial velocity = 6 [m/s]
a = acceleration = 0.5[m/s^2]
t = time [s]
Now clearing the time t, we have:
b)
We can calculate the displacement for the first 12 [s] then using the equation for the constant velocity we can calculate the other displacement for the 20[s].
The we can calculate the second displacement for the constant velocity:
x = x1 + x2
x = 108 + 240
x = 348[m]
Answer:
C
Explanation:
For a uniformly distributed mass, the center of gravity is also the geometric center. For this shape, the center is at point C.
Answer:
The distance that the racecar traveled is indeed 500m. But at the end of the lap, it is right back where it started. So overall, it has been displaced 0m.
Explanation:
Answer:
The time spent in air by the car is 2.19 s
The height of the cliff is 58.5 m
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the car, u = 16 m/s
horizontal distance traveled, R = 35 m
The horizontal distance or range of a projectile is given as;
R = vt
where;
t is the time spent in air by the projectile
t = R/v
t = 35 / 16
t = 2.19 s
The height of the cliff is given as;
h = ut + ¹/₂gt²
h = (16 x 2.19) + ¹/₂(9.8)(2.19)²
h = 58.5 m
