A sperm whale can accelerate at about 0.0900 m/s 2 when swimming on the surface of the ocean. How far will a sperm whale travel

if it starts at a speed of 0.700 m/s and accelerates to a speed of 2.18 m/s ? Assume the whale travels in a straight line.

Answer:

s = 23.68 m

Explanation:

given,

acceleration of the sperm whale = 0.09 m/s²

initial speed of the whale, u = 0.7 m/s

final speed of the whale, v = 2.18 m/s

Distance traveled by the sperm whale = ?

Using equation of motion

 v² = u² + 2 a s

 2.18² = 0.7² + 2 x 0.09 x s

 0.18 s = 4.2624

 s = 23.68 m

Distance traveled by the whale is equal to s = 23.68 m

A bullet is shot vertically upward with an initial velocity of 128 ft/s. The bullet's height after t seconds is y(t) = 128t - 16
saul85 [17]

The height of the bullet when the velocity is zero is 256 ft.

<h3>Height of the bullet when the velocity is zero </h3>

The height of the bullet when the velocity is zero is determined by taking derivative of the function as shown below;

v = \frac{dy}{dt} = 128 -32t \\\\when \ v \ is \ zero\\\\v = 0\\\\128 - 32t = 0\\\\32t = 128\\\\t = \frac{128}{32} \\\\t = 4 \  s

The height of the bullet at this time is calculated as follows;

y(4) = 128(4) - 16(4)^2\\\\y(4) = 256 \ ft

If temp. gets cold resistance in thermostat increases so voltage across it increases AND LED lights brighter. I understand every
Valentin [98]

Normally, when something gets colder, its electrical resistance gets smaller.  This is true of component-A in the drawing ... a simple resistor.

The component labeled 'B' has a strange and unusual symbol, and it's not a simple resistor.  It's a "thermistor".  The word "thermal" always has something to do with heat, and "thermistor" comes from "thermal resistor.  These things can be manufactured either way ... using different materials, a thermistor can be manufactured so that its resistance goes UP, or goes DOWN, or doesn'tchange when it gets colder.  I'm pretty sure that's what's going on here.

When this circuit gets colder, resistance-A gets smaller, but resistance-B either gets bigger OR doesn't change.  Either way, the voltage across B increases.  Since the LED is connected directly across B, the current through it depends on that voltage, so the LED gets more current, and becomes brighter, when A and B both get colder.

This circuit could actually be a very useful device.  If you took out the LED and put a voltmeter in its place, then the reading on the voltmeter would tell you the temperature of wherever you put the two components A and B.

An ideal spring is hung vertically from the ceiling. The spring constant is k = 125 N/m. A block of mass m = 650 g (1000 g = 1 k
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

0.102 m

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 125 N/m

m = mass of the block attached to the spring = 650 g = 0.650 kg

x = maximum extension of the spring

h = height dropped by the block = x

Using conservation of energy

Spring potential energy gained = Gravitational potential energy lost

(0.5) k x² = mgh

(0.5) k x² = mgx

(0.5) (125) x = (0.650) (9.8)

x = 0.102 m
