-- The truck begins the scenario moving at 6 m/s.

-- After increasing its speed at the rate of 2 m/s² for 12 seconds,
it has gained (2 x 12) = 24 m/s of speed, and it's then moving
at 30 m/s. 

-- The truck's average speed during the 12 seconds is (1/2) (6 + 30) = 18 m/s 

-- Traveling at an average speed of 18 m/s for 12 seconds,
the truck travels

(18 m/s) x (12 sec) = 216 meters

Ann [662]

Answer:

   θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the east - north

Explanation:

This is a velocity compound exercise since it is a vector quantity.

The plane takes a direction, the air blows to the west and the result must be to the north, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the speed

                  v_fly² = v_nort² + v_air²

                  v_nort² = v_fly² + - v_air²

Let's use trigonometry to find the direction of the plane

        sin θ = v_air / v_fly

        θ = sin⁻¹ (v_air / v_fly)

         

let's calculate

        θ = sin⁻¹ (10/120)

         θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the north-east

A weightlifter presses a 200 N weight 0.5 m over his head in 2 s. What is the power of the weightlifter
icang [17]

Answer:

50 watts

Explanation:

Applying,

Power (P) = Workdone (W)/Time(t)

But,

Work done (W) = Force (F)×distance(d)

Therefore,

P = Fd/t..................... Equation 1

Where P =  power of the weightlifter, F = Force applied, d = distance, t = time.

From the question,

Given: F = 200 N, d = 0.5 m, t = 2 s

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (200×0.5)/2

P = 100/2

P = 50 watts
