Answer:

a=5.515\frac{m}{s^{2} }

Explanation:

The first thing we will do is convert the units. Miles per hour to meters per second.

1 mile=1609.34 mts.

1 hora=3600 segundos

Performing the operations

60\frac{mile}{h}=\frac{(60*1609.34)}{3600}\frac{m}{s}=26.822\frac{m}{s}

Now, we will use the acceleration formula

a=\frac{v}{t}

Where v = speed and t = time

Substituting the values ​​of t=5.2s

a=\frac{v}{t} =\frac{26.822\frac{m}{s} }{5.2s} =5.15\frac{m}{s^{2} }

A satellite would have a mass of 270 kg on the surface of Mars. Determine the weight of the satellite in pounds if it is in orbi
koban [17]

Answer:

26 lbf

Explanation:

The mass of the satellite is the same regardless of where it is.

The weight however, depends on the acceleration of gravity.

The universal gravitation equation:

g = G * M / d^2

Where

G: universal gravitation constant (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s))

M: mass of the body causing the gravitational field (mass of Earth = 6*10^24 kg)

d: distance to that body

15000 miles = 24140 km

The distance is to the center of Earth.

Earth radius = 6371 km

Then:

d = 24140 + 6371 = 30511 km

g = 6.67*10^-11 * 6*10^24 / 30511000^2 = 0.43 m/s^2

Then we calculate the weight:

w = m * a

w = 270 * 0.43 = 116 N

116 N is 26 lbf

A lake has a carrying capacity of 10,000 fish. At the current level of fishing, 2,000 fish per year are taken with the catch uni
arlik [135]

Answer:

The population size would be p' = 5000

The yield would be    MaxYield = 2082 \ fishes \ per \ year

Explanation:

So in this problem we are going to be examining the application of a  population dynamics a fishing pond and stock fishing and objective would be to obtain the maximum sustainable yield and and the population of the fish at the obtained maximum sustainable yield,  so basically we would be applying an engineering solution to fishing

 

    So the current  yield which is mathematically represented as

                               \frac{dN}{dt} =   \frac{2000}{1 \ year }

 Where dN is the change in the number of fish

            and dt is the change in time

So in order to obtain the solution we need to obtain the  rate of growth

    For this we would be making use of the growth rate equation which is

                                      r = \frac{[\frac{dN}{dt}] }{N[1-\frac{N}{K} ]}

  Where N is the population of the fish which is given as 4,000 fishes

          and  K is the carrying capacity which is given as 10,000 fishes

             r is the growth rate

        Substituting these values into the equation

                              r = \frac{[\frac{2000}{year}] }{4000[1-\frac{4000}{10,000} ]}  =0.833

The maximum sustainable yield would be dependent on the growth rate an the carrying capacity and this mathematically represented as

                      Max Yield  = \frac{rK}{4} = \frac{(10,000)(0.833)}{4} = 2082 \ fishes \ per \ year

So since the maximum sustainable yield is 2082 then the the population need to be higher than 4,000 so in order to ensure a that this maximum yield the population size denoted by p' would be

                          p' = \frac{K}{2}  = \frac{10,000}{2}  = 5000\ fishes

Milk has a density of as much as 64.6 lb/ft3. What is the gage pressure at the bottom of the straw 6.1 inches deep in the milk?
gregori [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 inch is 0.0833333feet

6.1 inches is 0.5083 feet

Density = mass/volume

64.6 = mass/0.50833

mass = 64.6 x 0.5083 =32.83618lb
