The acceleration of the jet is 11.4 m/s^2

Explanation:

Since the jet motion is a uniformly accelerated motion (=constant acceleration), we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

For the jet in this problem, we have

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

v = 40 m/s (final velocity)

s = 70 m (length of the runway)

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{40^2-0}{2(70)}=11.4 m/s^2

The components of a 15 meters per second velocity at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal are?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x-component of velocity: 7.5 m/s

y-component of velocity: 13 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is pure trigonometry. Assuming you know trig, there are only a couple of steps to solving this problem. First, split the velocity into components; recall that any vector not directed along an axis has x and y components. Then, remember that sinΘ = opposite/hypotenuse. Applying this to your scenario, you get sin60° = vy/15. Multiplying this out gives you vy=15sin60. Put this into a calculator (make sure it's set to degree mode because the angle in this problem is in degrees) and you should get 12.99, which you can round up to 13 m/s. This is the velocity in the y-direction.

The procedure to find the x-velocity is very similar, but instead of using sine, we will use the cosine of theta. Recall that cosΘ=adjacent/hypotenuse. Once again plugging this scenario's numbers into that, you end up with cos60 = vₓ/15. Multiplying this out gives you vₓ = 15cos60. Once again, plug this into your calculator. 7.5 m/s should be your answer. This is the velocity in the x-direction.

By the way, a quick way to find the components of a vector, whether it's velocity, force, or whatever else, is to use these functions. Generally, if the vector points somewhere that's not along an axis, you can use this rule. The x-component of the vector is equal to hypotenuse*cosΘ and the y-component of the vector is equal to hypotenuse*sinΘ.

Hey guys can you help me solve this problem "how long will it take a car travelling 30m/s to come to stop ifs its acceleration i
salantis [7]

Answer:

10 seconds.

Explanation:

We can use a kinematic equation where we know the final velocity, initial velocity, acceleration, and need to determine the time <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle v_f = v_i + at<em />

<em />

The initial velocit is 30 m/s, the final velocity is 0 m/s (as we stopped), and the acceleration is -3 m/s².

Substitute and solve for <em>t: </em>

<em />\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (0\text{ m/s}) & = (30 \text{ m/s}) + (-3 \text{ m/s$^2$}) t \\ \\  t & = \frac{-30\text{ m/s}}{-3 \text{ m/s$^2$}} \\ \\ & = 10 \text{ s} \end{aligned}<em />

<em />

Hence, it will take the car 10 seconds to come to a stop.

gladu [14]
<span>9.50x10^2 newtons A pascal is defined as 1 newton per square meter. So let's multiply the pressure by the surface area of the box lid. F = 1.00x10^-2 m^2 * 9.50x10^4 N/m^2 = 9.50x10^2 N So it will take 9.50x10^2 newtons of force to remove the lid from the box.</span>

Can you explain to be the definition of Quantum Theory?
Vanyuwa [196]
Quantum Theory is commonly related to Quantum Mechanics, or the physics of sub-atomic particles. Quantum Theory defines the theories or educated ideas behind Quantum Mechanics. I believe this is the answer you are looking for.
