Answer:

2.485 miles/hour

Explanation:

Speed of the rider is 4 km/hour

The conversion factor is

1 km = 0.621371 miles

$4 \frac{km}{hour} = 4 \frac{km}{hour} \times \frac{0.621371 miles}{1 km} \\\\=2.485484 \frac{miles}{hour} \\$

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
This work, is just 4,475 J.
So we can write the following equation:

$\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J$

where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

$v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} } = 1.89 m/s$

The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

$W = F*d$

We can solve for F, as follows:

$F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} = 172.1 N$

Select all that apply.

Jobisdone [24]

$\text{Acceleration}=\frac{d^2}{dt^2}\text{displacement}$
So the dimensions of acceleration is $LT^{-2}$
Any answer that comes under that definition is correct.

Answer:

298800 m

Explanation:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

V=speed

d=distance

t=time

$d = vt$

Change hours to seconds

It will be 36000s

8.3m/s * 36000s

=298800m

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

d. a large region outside Jupiter occupied by its magnetic field and filled with high-energy charged particles.

Explanation:

A magnetic field is generated by the movement of a charged particle in the space around it. For the case of Jupiter its magnetic field is created by the liquid metallic hydrogen in its core.

So the magnetosphere is just the magnetic field around a planet, which interacts with high-energy charged particles (for example: Cosmic Rays).

Magnetospheres protect planets from the extreme radiation coming from stars or another interstellar source.

A motorcycle is moving at a speed of 21 m/s. The driver applies the brakes, giving hum an acceleration of -2.4 m/s^2. After 2 se

WARRIOR [948]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B. 16.2 m/s

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Using the equation;

v = u + at; where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken;

u = 21 m/s, a= -2.4 m/s^2 and t = 2 seconds

Therefore;

v = 21 + ((-2.4) × 2)

= 21 - 4.8

<u> = 16.2 m/s</u>
