A sled starts from rest at the top of a hill and slides down with a constant acceleration. At some later time it is 14.4 m from

the top; 2.00 s after that it is 25.6 m from the top, 2.00 s later 40.0 m from the top, and 2.00 s later it is 57.6 m from the top.What is the magnitude of the average velocity of the sled during each of the 2.00-s intervals after passing the 14.4-m point?

Answer:

V₁  = 5.6 m/s

V₂ = 7.2 m/s

V₃ = 8.8 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity: Average velocity can be defined as the ratio of the total  displacement to the total time taken. The S.I unit of Average velocity is m/s.

For the first 2 s,

V₁ = Δd₁/t

Where V₁  = Average velocity for the first 2 s

Where Δd₁= distance, t = time

Δd₁ = 25.6-14.4 = 11.2 m t = 2 s

V₁ = 11.2/2

V₁ = 5.6 m/s

For the second 2 s,

V₂ =Δd₂/t

Where V₂ = average velocity for the second 2 s.

Δd₂= 40-25.6 = 14.4 m, t= 2 s

V₂ = 14.4/2

V₂ = 7.2 m/s

For the last 2 seconds,

V₃ =Δd₃/t

Where V₃ = average velocity for the last 2 s

where Δd₃ = 57.6- 40 = 17.6 m, t = 2 s

V₃ = 17.6/2

V₃ = 8.8 m/s.

Calculate the true mass (in vacuum) of a piece of aluminum whose apparent mass is 4.5000 kg when weighed in air. The density of
sasho [114]

Answer:

m = 4.5021 kg

Explanation:

given,

Apparent mass of aluminium = 4.5 kg

density of air = 1.29 kg/m³

density of aluminium = 2.7 x 10⁷ kg/m³

true mass of the aluminium = ?

Weight in Vacuum

W = m g

W = ρV g

Air buoyancy acting on aluminium

B = ρ₀V g

Volume is the same in both cases since the volume of the aluminum

displaces an equal amount of volume air.

Apparent weight:

ρV g − ρ₀V g = 4.5 g

ρV − ρ₀V = 4.5

V = \dfrac{4.5}{\rho - \rho_0}

m = ρV

m = \dfrac{4.5\times \rho}{\rho - \rho_0}

m = \dfrac{4.5\times 2700}{2700 - 1.29}

m = 4.5021 kg

The clothes washer in your house consumes 470 kWh of energy per year. Price of the washer is $360 and the lifetime of the washer
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

$893

Explanation: the complete question should be

The clothes washer in your house consumes 470 kWh of energy per year. Price of the washer is $360 and the lifetime of the washer is 10 yrs. Energy price in your city is 9 cents per kWh. What is the lifecycle cost of the clothes washer? (assume a maintenance cost of $11 per year)

SOLUTION

Given:

The clothes washe power consumption (PC) is 470 kWh

Price of the washer (P) is $360

lifetime of the washer (L) is 10 yrs

Energy price in the city (E) is 9 cents per kWh (Covert to $ by dividing 100)

maintenance cost (M) is $11 per year

Lifecycle cost = P + (PC × L × E) +M + L

Lifecycle cost = $360 + (470kWh × 10years × 9cents/100) + ($11 × 10years)

=$893

What is the quantity of charge that passes through a conductor when there is a current of 0.25 A for 10 minutes?
nikitadnepr [17]
To calculate charge(Q) through a point, we multiply the current(I) with time (t)
Thus, Q= It
Therefore, t must be in SI units which gives 60*10 seconds.
Q=0.25A*600s= 150 coulombs.

Which of the following is TRUE regarding Softball?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

There are two popular forms of softball, distinguished by the type of pitch.

Explanation:

Softball refers to a kind of sports that is similar to baseball in terms of game play but softball is played with a larger ball. The game of softball was first introduced as an indoor game in Chicago, Illinois, United States of America in the year 1887. Also, the field for playing softball is relatively smaller than that of baseball and as such its game play is quite faster.

Some of the kits and paraphernalia used for playing softball are base, bat, softball, gloves, jerseys etc.

There are two (2) main types of softball game and these are;

I. Fast-pitch softball.

II. Slow-pitch softball.

Hence, the true statement regarding softball is that, there are two popular forms of softball, distinguished by the type of pitch.
