The faster car behind is catching up/closing the gap/gaining on
the slow truck in front at the rate of (90 - 50) = 40 km/hr.
At that rate, it takes (100 m) / (40,000 m/hr) = 1/400 of an hour
to reach the truck.
(1/400 hour) x (3,600 seconds/hour) = 3600/400 = <em>9 seconds</em>, exactly
Work= force*distance
Work= x*12
Force= mass*acceleration
Force= 5 kg*6
Force= 40 N
Work= 40×12
Work= 480 J (joules)
I think this is it
The formula we can use in this case is:
v = v0 + a t
where v is final velocity, v0 is initial velocity, a is
acceleration and t is time
So finding for v0:
v0 = v – a t
v0 = 43.7 – (2.5) 2.7
v0 = 36.95 m/s
Centre of Mass then axis of rotation and then moment of inertia. This was the toughest question for your level... happy to help ^_^. It was purely experimental question.
