You must run at least 53.3333333 meters a minute.

To find the rate that you need to run, you should do distance/time

So, 800/15=53.33. You have to run at 53.33meters per minute to make it on time

Hannah walks 0.30 km to class in 5.0 min. what is her average speed in m/s?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1.0 m/s

Explanation:

First, convert to SI units.

0.30 km × (1000 m / km) = 300 m

5.0 min × (60 s / min) = 300 s

Speed is distance divided by time:

300 m / 300 s = 1.0 m/s

A bungee jumper with mass 65.0 kg jumps from a high bridge. After reaching his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, hitting

ololo11 [35]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a bungee jumper is 65 kg

The time period of the oscillation is 38 s, hitting a low point eight more times.It means its time period is

$T=\dfrac{38}{8}\\\\T=4.75\ s$

After many oscillations, he finally comes to rest 25.0 m below the level of the bridge.

For an oscillating object, the time period is given by :

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

k = spring stiffness constant

So,

$k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2\times 65}{(4.75)^2}\\\\k=113.43\ N/m$

When the cord is in air,

mg=kx

x = the extension in the cord

$x=\dfrac{mg}{k}\\\\x=\dfrac{65\times 9.8}{113.6}\\\\x=5.6\ m$

So, the unstretched length of the bungee cord is equal to 25 m - 5.6 m = 19.4 m

Neutron stars, such as the one at the center of the Crab Nebula, have about the same mass as our sun but have a much smaller dia

Crank

Answer:

Wn = 9.14 x 10¹⁷ N

Explanation:

First we need to find our mass. For this purpose we use the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

W = Weight = 675 N

g = Acceleration due to gravity on Surface of Earth = 9.8 m/s²

m = Mass = ?

Therefore,

m = (675 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

m = 68.88 kg

Now, we need to find the value of acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Neutron Star. For this purpose we use the following formula:

gn = (G)(Mn)/(Rn)²

where,

gn = acceleration due to gravity on surface of neutron star = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

Mn = Mass of Neutron Star = Mass of Sun = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg

Rn = Radius of neutron Star = 20 km/2 = 10 km = 10000 m

Therefore,

gn = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(1.99 x 10³⁰ kg)/(10000)

gn = 13.27 x 10¹⁵ m/s²

Now, my weight on neutron star will be:

Wn = m(gn)

Wn = (68.88)(13.27 x 10¹⁵ m/s²)

A 6,000N is applied to a formula one car that weighs 500kg. What is the car's acceleration?

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question

f = 6000 N

m = 500 kg

We have

$a = \frac{6000}{500} = \frac{60}{5} = 12 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
