Over time, the types of technology can vary and be improved upon so that more advanced techniques become more valued. This could be the situation with mining whereby back in the 1500's in underground mines the rock was broken by fire setting ie lighting a fire below the rock face to heat up the rock and then throwing cold water on it to crack it, so that it could be dug by hand. With the advent of explosives, this all changed so that the rock could be blasted. The increase in advance rates for an underground heading have thus gone from 5-20 feet per month to up to 300meters (984 ft) per month for a 24/7 mining operation, which is a huge improvement.
Answer:
s = 3 m
Explanation:
Let t be the time the accelerating car starts.
Let's assume the vehicles are point masses so that "passing" takes no time.
the position of the constant velocity and accelerating vehicles are
s = vt = 40(t + 2) cm
s = ½at² = ½(20)(t)² cm
they pass when their distance is the same
½(20)(t)² = 40(t + 2)
10t² = 40t + 80
0 = 10t² - 40t - 80
0 = t² - 4t - 8
t = (4±√(4² - 4(1)(-8))) / 2(1)
t = (4± 6.928) / 2 ignore the negative time as it has not occurred yet.
t = 5.464 s
s = 40(5.464 + 2) = 298.564 cm
300 cm when rounded to the single significant digit of the question numerals.
Answer:
Speed of cart's might be less than the high speed after 5 seconds.
Explanation:
Given that,
A fan cart with the fan set to high rolled across the floor.
Let the speed of fan cart with set to high is 
per second.
The fan supplies a force to the cart. If a lower fan speed were used, less force would be applied. This would cause a slower change in the cart's speed. So, the cart would be rolling more slowly than per second after 5 seconds. The speed of cart's might be less than per second.
Force is needed
A. for a moving object to keep moving at the same speed and direction
B. for a moving object to change its speed
C. for a motionless object to remain still
D. to prevent a moving object from turning
Hence,
Speed of cart's might be less than the high speed after 5 seconds.
