Acceleration = (Vf - Vi)/t
Since Vf= 60m/s
Vi= 15m/s
T= 15s
=> a= (60m/s - 15m/s)/15s
= 3
So the acceleration is 3m/s^2

A car initially at rest accelerates at 10m/s^2. The car’s speed after it has traveled 25 meters is most nearly... A.) 0.0m/s B.)
STALIN [3.7K]

The car traverses a distance x after time t according to

x=\dfrac12at^2

where a is its acceleration, 10 m/s^2. The time it takes for the car to travel 25 m is

25\,\mathrm m=\left(5\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2\implies t=\sqrt 5\,\mathrm s

5 is pretty close to 4, so we can approximate the square root of 5 by 2. Then the car's velocity v after 2 s of travel is given by

v=\left(10\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2\,\mathrm s)\approx20\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

which makes C the most likely answer.

A 600-kg car traveling at 30.0 m/s is going around a curve having a radius of 120 m that is banked at an angle of 25.0°. The coe
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1593.4N

Explanation:

The sum of the horizontal components of the friction and the normal force will be equal to the centripetal force on the car. This can be represented as

fcostheta + Nsintheta = mv^2/r

Where F = force of friction

Theta = angle of banking

N = normal force

m = mass of car

v = velocity of car

r = radius of curve

The car has no motion in the vertical direction so the sum of forces = 0

The vertical component of the normal force acts upwards whereas the weight of the car and the vertical component friction acts downwards.

Taking the upward direction to be positive,rewrite the equation above to get:

Ncos thetha = mg - fsintheta =0

Ncistheta = mg + fain theta

N = mg/cos theta + sintheta/ costheta

fcostheta +[mg/costheta + ftan theta] sin theta = mv^2/r

Substituting gives:

f = (1/(costheta + tanthetasintheta) + mgtantheta = mv^2/r - mgtantheta)

Substituting given values into the above equation

f = 1/(cos25 + tan 25 )(sin25)[ 600×30/120 - (600×9.81)tan

f = 1593.4N25

How much power is required to lift a 60 kg bed to the top of a 3 meter flight of stairs in 10 seconds?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

176.58Watts

Explanation:

Power= work done /time

Where mass(m)=60kg

Height (h) =3m

Time(s)=10s

Force of gravity = 9.81m/s^2

Power=mgh/t

Power= (60kg) * (9.81m/s^2) * (3m)/10s

Power= 176.58Watts
