A mouse runs along a baseboard in your house. The mouse's position as a function of time is given by x(t)=pt 2+qt, with p = 0.36

m/s2and q = -1.10 m/s . Determine the mouse's average speed between t = 1.0 s and t = 4.0 s. I have tried everything and the answer is not 0.40 m/s

Answer: the average speed of the rat from the information given above is 0.7m/s

Explanation:

position is given as

x(t) = pt² + qt

finding the diffencial of x(t) with respect to t, we have

d(x(t))/dt = 2pt + q

we substitute the p = 0.36m/s² and q= -1.10 m/s

d(x(t))/dt = 2(0.36)t + (-1.10)

so, at t= 1s

d(x(t))/dt = 2*(0.36)*1 - 1.1 = 0.72 - 1.1 = -0.38m/s

at t= 4s

d(x(t))/dt = 2*(0.36)*4 - 1.10 = 2.88 - 1.10 = 1.78 m/s

To find the average speed,

average speed = (V1 + V2)/ 2

average speed = (1.78 + (-0.38))/2 = 0.7m/s

an elevator suspended by a vertical cable is moving downward but slowing down. the tension in the cable must be:
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

F = M a is the vector equation involved

F = T - M g      are the forces acting on the elevator   (scalar equation)

T - M g = M a

T = M (a + g)    remember this a scalar

If a is slowing down then it must have a positive acceleration upwards

Therefor the tension in the cable must be greater than zero

When the tension increases to M g, a has increased to zero

For a to be zero, no acceleration, T = M g

Compared to a blue star in the same local cluster, the surface temperature of a red star is a) greater. b) the same. c) lower. d

Hello! My name is Zalgo and I am here to help you out on this concluding day. The answer would be C);lower. The reason it would be lower is because the hottest color of flames would be blue. Considering the way a start emits light is fire, this would be the most logical reason for it.

I hope that this helps! :P

In what subject could we see cross cutting concepts
meriva
A Framework for K–12 Science Education: Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Core Ideas (Framework) recommends science education in grades K–12 be built around three major dimensions: science and engineering practices, crosscutting concepts that unify the study of science and engineering through their common application across fields, and core ideas in the major disciplines of natural science.

Why doesn't electric current flow through rubber?

Rubber is a insulator so current cannot pass through it where as metal is a conductor which allows current to pass through it
