In a football game, the running back takes a handoff and begins running toward midfield at 3.21 yards/s . As he moves through hi

s linemen, he accelerates at a rate of 1.71 yards/s^2 to a velocity of 7.54 yards/s before he is tackled. How far did he run after he got the ball?

Given Information:

Initial speed = u = 3.21 yards/s

Acceleration = α  = 1.71 yards/s²

Final speed = v = 7.54 yards/s

Required Information:

Distance = s = ?

Answer:

Distance = s = 13.61

Explanation:

We are given the speeds and acceleration of the runner and we want to find out how much distance he covered before being tackled.

We know from the equations of motion,

v² = u² + 2αs

Where u is the initial speed of the runner, v is the final speed of the runner, α is the acceleration of the runner and s is the distance traveled by the runner.

Re-arranging the above equation for distance yields,

2αs = v² - u²

s = (v² - u²)/2α

s = (7.54² - 3.21²)/2×1.71

s = 46.55/3.42

s = 13.61 yards

Therefore, the runner traveled a distance of 13.61 yards before being tackled.

8. List three temperature scales. Then write the boiling and freezing
Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

For most temperature scales, the boiling point of water and the freezing point is used to calibrate it.

Three known temperature scales;

  • Kelvin scale
  • Celcius scale
  • Fahrenheit scale

                               Kelvin scale              Celcius scale          Fahrenheit scale

Freezing point             273K                            0°C                        32°F

Melting point                373K                          100°C                     212°F

<u>ALL of the following work assumes NO AIR RESISTANCE:</u>

1). an object moving under the influence of only gravity, and not in orbit;  its horizontal velocity is constant, and its vertical motion is accelerated downward at 9.8 m/s²

2). a parabola

3). Horizontal: velocity is constant, acceleration is zero. . . . Vertical: acceleration is 9.8 m/s² downward, velocity depends on whether it was launched, thrown up, thrown down, dropped, etc.

4). a). the one that was thrown horizontally; b). both  hit the ground at the same time; c). both hit the ground with the same vertical velocity

5). a). zero; b). zero; c). gravity ... 9.8 m/s² down; d). 3.06 seconds; e). 4.38 m/s; f). 30 m/s g). no; gravity has no effect on horizontal motion

6). a). 1.8 seconds;   b). 13.1 meters;   c). 17.6 m/s down;   d). 7.3 m/s; gravity has no effect on horizontal motion

7). 45 m/s

8). without air resistance, the ball is traveling horizontally at 13 km/hr, and it lands back in your hand

9). a). 4.49 m/s;  b). 29.7 m/s

10). 7.24 meters

11).  700 meters

12).  A). 103.7 meters ( ! she's in big trouble ! );     B).  17.5 meters
