Answer:

The average acceleration of train is 5.34\ m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

A train that slows down from 15 m/s to 8.6 m/s in 1.2 s. It means that 15 m/s is its initial velocity and 8.6 m/s is its final velocity.

It is required to find the average acceleration of the train.

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{(8.6-15)\ m/s}{1.2\ s}\\\\a=-5.34\ m/s^2

The average acceleration of train is 5.34\ m/s^2.  Negative signs shows that the train is decelerating.

uysha [10]
The answer would be 92 by 92. Rectangular area only refers to the shape of the area. Squares are special types of rectangles.

368/4 equals 92.

I divided by 4 because a rectangle has four sides.

In the diagram, PN is the perpendicular bisector of AB and is also the angle bisector of
Svet_ta [14]
The perpendicular bisector is a line segment that is drawn from a vertex of an angle to the midpoint of another line segment creating a right triangle or a 90° angle in the process. Suppose AB is the base segment of the triangle, therefore the perpendicular sector is also the angle bisector of the other angle of the triangle, supposedly angle C. Angle bisector is a line segment that divides the angle into two equal parts. Imagine a line drawn from the top vertex C extended down to the midpoint of line AB. That is the perpendicular and angle bisector.

Michael invested 5,000 in an account that has a 5.5% annual interest rate. What equation best describes investment after T years
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

V = 5000 +  275*T   for simple annual interest

or:   A = 5000 * (1.055)^T   for an annual compound interest

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume this is a simple interest rate.  If not I will give the one for compound interest.

V = 5000 + 5000* 0.055 * T      (Value of account after T years)

V = 5000 +  275*T   for simple annual interest

or:   A = 5000 * (1.055)^T   for an annual compound interest
