A roller coaster moves 200 ft horizontally, then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal. Next, it travels 135 f

t at an angle of 40.0° below the horizontal. Use graphical techniques to find the roller coaster's displacement from its starting point at the end of this movement.

Answer:

171 ft

Explanation:

The distance to be calculated is AB

AB = AC + BC

AC;  Cos 60 = AC ÷ 135

AC = 135 cos 60 = 67.5 ft

BC; Cos 40 = BC ÷ 135

BC = 135 cos 40 = 103.416 ft

AB = 67.5 + 103.416 = 170.9159998210 ft

Distance between starting point to end point = 171 ft

4. A family leaves from New York City and is flying to Los Angles which is 2800mi away. It takes
Blizzard [7]

The average speed of the whole travel is equal to <u>400 mph</u>.

Why?

From the statement, we know that whole travel is divided into three parts. For the first part (traveling from New York to Chicago), we have that it was 3.25 hours and the covered distance was half of the total distance (1400mi). For the second part, we have that it was 1 hour (layover time), and the covered no distance. For the third part (traveling from Chicago to Los Angeles), we have that it was 2.75 hours, and it took the other half of the total distance (1400mi).

We can calculate the average speed of the whol travel using the following formula:

AverageSpeed=\frac{distance_{1}+distance_{2}+distance_{3}}{time_{1}+time{2}+time_{3}}

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

AverageSpeed=\frac{1400mi+0mi+1400mi}{3.25h+1h+2.75h}

AverageSpeed=\frac{2800mi}{7h}=400mph

Hence, we have the average speed of the whole travel is equal to 400 mph.

Have a nice day!

Since the moon has less mass than the earth what happens to objects on the moon
postnew [5]
When you drop an object on the moon, it falls to the ground.
But it only falls about 1/6 as fast as it falls on Earth.

10. A hockey puck with mass 0.3 kg is sliding along ice that can be considered frictionless. The puck’s velocity is 20 m/s when
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

d = \frac{v^2_i}{2a}= \frac{(20m/s)^2}{2* 3.43 m/s^2}=58.309m

Explanation:

For this case  we can use the second law of Newton given by:

\sum F = ma

The friction force on this case is defined as :

F_f = \mu_k N = \mu_k mg

Where N represent the normal force, \mu_k the kinetic friction coeffient and a the acceleration.

For this case we can assume that the only force is the friction force and we have:

F_f = ma

Replacing the friction force we got:

\mu_k mg = ma

We can cancel the mass and we have:

a = \mu_k g = 0.35 *9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}= 3.43 \frac{m}{s^2}

And now we can use the following kinematic formula in order to find the distance travelled:

v^2_f = v^2_i - 2ad

Assuming the final velocity is 0 we can find the distance like this:

d = \frac{v^2_i}{2a}= \frac{(20m/s)^2}{2* 3.43 m/s^2}=58.309m

asambeis [7]

Answer:

800 mL

Explanation:

D*V=M

You pick out the numbers as well as what it is they represent from the word problem/explanation, then from there plug them in to the equations. Once you do that, you get your product and have the answer.

10*80= 800

3. What is the difference between Synthetic Oil, Semi-Syntheic oil (Blend), High milage motor oil, and conventional motor oil? ​
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

When evaluating synthetic blends, it's helpful to define the terms “synthetic blend” and “semi-synthetic”. Generally speaking, synthetic blends and semi-synthetic refer to the same thing: an oil that uses a combination of conventional and synthetic base oils in its formulation.
