Answer:

F = 960 N

Explanation:

given,                      

acceleration = 2 m/s²

Force = 450 N                        

mass = 255 Kg                  

to calculate the force propelling the bobsled forward

∑ F  = ma                                            

F - f = ma                                        

F = m a + f                                  

F = 255 × 2 + 450                          

F = 510 + 450                                

F = 960 N                                    

the magnitude of the force propelling the bobsled forward is F = 960 N

How am I supposed to solve this?
RSB [31]

Answer:

4.02 km/hr

Explanation:

5 km/hr = 1.39 m/s

The swimmer's speed relative to the ground must have the same direction as line AC.

The vertical component of the velocity is:

uᵧ = us cos 45

uᵧ = √2/2 us

The horizontal component of the velocity is:

uₓ = 1.39 − us sin 45

uₓ = 1.39 − √2/2 us

Writing a proportion:

uₓ / uᵧ = 121 / 159

(1.39 − √2/2 us) / (√2/2 us) = 121 / 159

Cross multiply and solve:

159 (1.39 − √2/2 us) = 121 (√2/2 us)

220.8 − 79.5√2 us = 60.5√2 us

220.8 = 140√2 us

us = 1.115

The swimmer's speed is 1.115 m/s, or 4.02 km/hr.

1. During which phase of the moon may a solar eclipse occur? (Points : 1)
kotykmax [81]
1. New moon
This is because the moon comes between the Earth and sun and this is only possible during its new moon phase.

2. Full moon
This is because the Earth comes between the Moon and the sun and the effect is only visible when there is a full moon.

3. Corona
The corona is the outer layer and is the only one visible when there is an eclipse.

wheel rotates from rest with constant angular acceleration. Part A If it rotates through 8.00 revolutions in the first 2.50 s, h
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

x2 = 64 revolutions.

it rotate through 64 revolutions in the next 5.00 s

Explanation:

Given;

wheel rotates from rest with constant angular acceleration.

Initial angular speed v = 0

Time t = 2.50

Distance x = 8 rev

Applying equation of motion;

x = vt +0.5at^2 ........1

Since v = 0

x = 0.5at^2

making a the subject of formula;

a = x/0.5t^2 = 2x/t^2

a = angular acceleration

t = time taken

x = angular distance

Substituting the values;

a = 2(8)/2.5^2

a = 2.56 rev/s^2

velocity at t = 2.50

v1 = a×t = 2.56×2.50 = 6.4 rev/s

Through the next 5 second;

t2 = 5 seconds

a2 = 2.56 rev/s^2

v2 = 6.4 rev/s

From equation 1;

x = vt +0.5at^2

Substituting the values;

x2 = 6.4(5) + 0.5×2.56×5^2

x2 = 64 revolutions.

it rotate through 64 revolutions in the next 5.00 s
