A group of tourists drives through a state park in Maine. While arguing about whether the animal they've just seen is an Elk or

a Moose, a chipmunk darts across the park road. The driver, who was traveling 6.7 m/s through the park slams on their breaks and comes to a stop. If the car has an acceleration of -8.3 m/s2, how long does it take the car to stop?

Answer:

0.8 second

Explanation:

Given data

Speed v=6.7m/s

Deceleration = - 8.3m/s²

Initial velocity u= 0m/s

We can solve for the distance covered upon breaking the speed using the expression

v=u +at

6.7=0-(8.3)t

6.7=8.3t

Divide both sides by 8.3

6.7/8.3=t

t=6.7/8.3

t=0.8 second

Find the acceleration that can result from a net force of 13 N exerted on a 3.6-kg cart. (Note: The unit N/kg is equivalent to m
STatiana [176]

Answer:

a = 3.61[m/s^2]

Explanation:

To find this acceleration we must remember newton's second law which tells us that the total sum of forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

In this case we have:

F = m*a\\\\m=mass = 3.6[kg]\\F = force = 13[N]\\13 = 3.6*a\\a = 3.61[m/s^2]

Cliff divers at Acapulco jump into the sea from a cliff 37.1 m high. At the level of the sea, a rock sticks out a horizontal dis
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

v_x = 4.87 m/s

Explanation:

Height of the cliff is given as

h = 37.1 m

now the time taken by the diver to hit the surface is given as

h = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

37.1 = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

t = 2.75 s

Now in the same time it has to cover a distance of 13.39 m

so the speed in horizontal direction is given as

v_x = \frac{x}{t}

v_x = \frac{13.39}{2.75}

v_x = 4.87 m/s
