The word FIRE is sometimes written in Spanish and English, or English and other languages, so foreigners can know what the word is in their language.

While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 24 m/s to 15 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the automobile's acceleration? (Reme
slava [35]

Answer:

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 24 m/s

Final velocity = 15 m/s

Time = 12 seconds

To find the acceleration of the automobile;

Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Acceleration (a) = \frac {final \; velocity  -  initial \; velocity}{time}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Acceleration = \frac{15 - 24}{12}

Acceleration = \frac{-9}{12}

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Therefore, the automobile is decelerating because its final velocity is lesser than its initial velocity, leading to a negative value.

An ion in a mass spectrometer follows a semicircular path of radius 14.8. What is the distance it travels?
aleksklad [387]

The circumference of a circle is (2π · the circle's radius).

The length of a semi-circle is  (1π · the circle's radius) =

                                                 (π · 14.8) = 46.5 (rounded)

(The unit is the same as whatever the unit of the  14.8  is.)

An airplane has a momentum of 8.55 x 107 kg.m/s[S] and a velocity of 900 km/h[S]. Determine the mass of the airplane.
kow [346]

Answer:

342,000kg

Explanation:

p=mv

8.55*10^7 kg*m/s=m(900 km/h)

85,500,000 kg*m/s=m(900 km/h)

(85,500,000 kg*m/s)/(900 km/h)=m

Get same units.... 900km/h = 250m/s

m/s cancel in the division, you are left with just kg!!

85,500,000/250=342,000kg! That's it!

a sphere of diameter 6•0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0•2mm.calculate the length of the wire in metres​
Scilla [17]

The length of the wire is 36 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given, Diameter of sphere = 6 cm

We know that, radius can be found by taking the half in the diameter value. So,

       \text { sphere radius, } R=\frac{D}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{cm}=3 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{m}

Similarly,

      \text { wire radius, } r=\frac{0.2}{2}=0.1 \mathrm{mm}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{m}

We know the below formulas,

          \text {volume of sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}

          \text {volume of wire}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l

When equating both the equations, we can find length of wire as below, where \pi=\frac{22}{7}

          \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l

         \frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times\left(3 \times 10^{-2}\right)^{3}=\frac{22}{7} \times\left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{2} \times l

The \pi value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

           \frac{4}{3} \times 27 \times 10^{-6}=10^{-6} \times l

The 10^{-6} value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

           l=4 \times 9=36 m
