If a shark can travel 15 miles per second, then it can go 150 miles in 10 seconds.

Start with 15 m/s. There are 2 units and you need to cancel the seconds to get meters.

10 seconds has seconds as a unit. This can be used to cancel the sec in the denominator of 15 m/s. This just a little tip I use when I'm unsure about what to do.

15 m/s x 10 s = 150 meters

Hope I helped :)

Answer:

Newtons law

Explanation:

According to this law, a body at rest tends to stay at rest, and a body in motion tends to stay in motion, unless acted on by a net external force.

A boy with a mouse is 80 kg stands on a scale in an ascending elevator with an acceleration of 3 m/s What is the resultant upwar

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Upward force on the boy will be 1024 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the boy m = 80 kg

Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

It is given that elevator is ascending with acceleration of $3m/sec^2$

So net acceleration on the boy = 9.8+3 = 12.8 $m/sec^2$ ( As the car elevator is moving ascending )

So upward force on the boy will be equal to F = m(g+a)

So $F=80\times 12.8=1024N$

So upward force on the boy will be 1024 N

A 1400 kg car starts from rest on a horizontal road and gains a speed of 61 km/h in 19 s. (a) what is its kinetic energy at the

lana [24]

(a) Let's convert the final speed of the car in m/s:
$v_f = 61 km/h = 16.9 m/s$
The kinetic energy of the car at t=19 s is
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2= \frac{1}{2}(1400 kg)(16.9 m/s)^2=2.00 \cdot 10^5 J$

(b) The average power delivered by the engine of the car during the 19 s is equal to the work done by the engine divided by the time interval:
$P= \frac{W}{\Delta t}$
But the work done is equal to the increase in kinetic energy of the car, and since its initial kinetic energy is zero (because the car starts from rest), this translates into
$P= \frac{K}{\Delta t}= \frac{2.00 \cdot 10^5 J}{19 s}=1.05 \cdot 10^4 W$

(c) The instantaneous power is given by
$P_i = Fv_f$
where F is the force exerted by the engine, equal to F=ma.

So we need to find the acceleration first:
$a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t}= \frac{16.9 m/s}{19 s}=0.89 m/s^2$
And the problem says this acceleration is constant during the motion, so now we can calculate the instantaneous power at t=19 s:
$P_i = Fv=(ma)v=(1400 kg)(0.89 m/s^2)(16.9 m/s)=2.11 \cdot 10^4 W$
