Answer:

42.11 sec

Explanation:

In first part : The truck start from the rest that is u = 0 m/sec

Acceleration is given as a=1.4m/sec^2

It reaches to a velocity of 22 m/sec so v=22 m/sec

Now according to first law of motion v=u+at

22=0+1.4\times t

t=15.71sec

In second part : The truck maintain a constant speed for 22 sec

In third  part : The truck takes an additional 4.4 sec for stopping

So total time in which the truck is in motion =15.71+22+4.4=42.11 sec

Equal force is applied to a baseball, a basketball, a tennis ball, and a bowling ball. Which ball will have the GREATEST acceler
mr_godi [17]

according to newton's second law , net force on an object is equal to the product of its mass and its acceleration. the formula is given as

F = ma

where F = force , m = mass  , a  = acceleration

rearranging the equation for acceleration "a" , we get

a = F/m

when force F is kept constant , the acceleration is inversely related to the mass "m".  in other words, greater the mass , smaller will be the acceleration and smaller the mass, greater will be the acceleration.

the masses of baseball, basketball,  tennis ball and bowling ball can in arranged in increasing order as

tennis ball < baseball < basketball < bowling ball.

since acceleration and mass have inverse relation from the formula , the order of the acceleration will also be reverse.

tennis ball > baseball > basketball > bowling ball.

hence the tennis ball will have the greatest acceleration as it has the smallest mass.

A severe storm has an average peak wave height of 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. suppose that a storm is in progress wit
Agata [3.3K]

Before we answer this question, let us first understand what alternate hypothesis is.

The alternative hypothesis is the hypothesis which is used in the hypothesis testing and this is opposite to the null hypothesis. This is the test hypothesis which is usually taken to be that the observations are the result of a real effect in an experiment.

In this case since what we want to set up is the statistical test to see if the waves are dying down, then this means we are trying to determine if the wave height are decreasing, so lesser than 16.4 feet. Therefore:

The alternative hypothesis would state                 (ANSWER)

Ha: μ less than 16.4 feet and P-value area is on the left of the mean.

 

While the null hypothesis is the opposite and would state

H0: mu equals 16.4 feet

mrs. knight drops her briefcase. when the briefcase lands on the floor, what is the reaction force to the action force of the br
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The force of the floor on the briefcase

Explanation:

The briefcase hits the floor and stops the falling which is reacting to the briefcase that was falling and hits the floor.

The falling briefcase would be the action force because it is moving downward

and

The reaction force would be the floor because it will react on the briefcase.
