Answer:

Speed of the train, v = 166.66 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance traveled by the train in one hour, d = 600 km = 600000 m

Time, t = 1 hour = 3600 seconds

We need to find the velocity of the train. Total distance covered in total time is called the velocity of an object. It is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$v=\dfrac{600000\ m/s}{3600\ s}$

v = 166.66 m/s

So, the velocity of the train is 166.66 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

v= s/t

600 ÷ 60

10 m/s

The eagle drops the trout a height of 6.1 m the fish travels 7.9 m horizontaly before hitting the water what is the velocity of

Semenov [28]

The velocity of the eagle is 7.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the fish is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction, where the horizontal velocity of the fish is equal to the horizontal velocity of the eagle

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

We start by analyzing the vertical motion, using the following suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where:

s = 6.1 m is the vertical displacement of the fish

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity of the fish

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time

Solving for t, we find the time of flight of the fish:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.1)}{9.8}}=1.12 s$

Now we know that during this time, the fish travels a horizontal distance of

x = 7.9 m

Therefore, the horizontal velocity of the fish is

$v_x = \frac{x}{t}=\frac{7.9}{1.12}=7.0 m/s$

And therefore, this is the initial velocity of the eagle.

In Example 2.12, two circus performers rehearse a trick in which a ball and a dart collide. Horatio stands on a platform 6.4 m a

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

time of collision is

t = 0.395 s

$h = 5.63 m$

so they will collide at height of 5.63 m from ground

Explanation:

initial speed of the ball when it is dropped down is

$v_1 = 0$

similarly initial speed of the object which is projected by spring is given as

$v_2 = 16.2 m/s$

now relative velocity of object with respect to ball

$v_r = 16.2 m/s$

now since we know that both are moving under gravity so their relative acceleration is ZERO and the relative distance between them is 6.4 m

$d = v_r t$

$6.4 = 16.2 t$

$t = 0.395 m$

Now the height attained by the object in the same time is given as

$h = v_2 t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h = 16.2(0.395) - \frac{1}{2}(9.81).395^2$

$h = 5.63 m$

so they will collide at height of 5.63 m from ground

the goat weighs 900 N and is 1 meter from the fulcrum. The strongman pulls down on the lever 3 meters from the fulcrum. What is

garik1379 [7]

Answer: The smallest effort = 300N

Explanation:

Using one of the condition for the attainment of equilibrium:

Clockwise moment = anticlockwise moments

900 × 1 = 3 × M

Where M = the weight of the strong man

3M = 900

M = 900/3 = 300N

Therefore, 300N is the smallest effort that the strongman can use to lift the goat

Yall have helped a lot i just need help on this then ill be done for a while

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k

Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.

The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):

x - h = 0

-2 - h = 0

-h = 2

h = -2

So the function ends up looking like:

f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2

Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:

f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2Explanation:
