At the beginning of the 3 sec, its speed is 10 m/s.

Over the course of 3 sec, gravity adds (9.8 x 3) = 29.4 m/s
to its speed, so its speed after 3 sec is (10 + 29.4) = 39.4 m/s.

Its average speed during the 3 sec is

                               (1/2) (10 + 39.4) 

                           =  (1/2) (49.4)  =  24.7 m/s .

In 3 sec, at an average speed of 24.7 m/s,
the rock travels

                     (3) x (24.7) = 74.1 meters.

If there's no air resistance in its path, then it was thrown
from 74.1 meters above the ground.

A 150 kg car hits a wall with 45 N of force, what was its acceleration?​
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

a = 0.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given: 45 N, 150 kg

To find: a

Formula: a = \frac{F}{m}

Solution: To find a, divide the force by the weight  

A = F ÷ m

=  45 ÷  150

= 0.3 m/s²

Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.

A 65.0 kg skier slides down a 37.20 slope with mu = 0.107.<br><br>What is the friction force?
zmey [24]

Answer:

54.3N

Explanation:

The normal force is perpendicular to the slope, so:

Normal Force = cos(37.2)(9.8*65).......507.39N

F(friction)=mu*F(normal)

F(friction)=(0.107)(507.39)

F(friction)=54.3N

A car is strapped to a rocket (combined mass = 661 kg), and its kinetic energy is 66,120 J.
labwork [276]

Answer:

9.4 m/s

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by external forces on a system is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system.

Therefore we can write:

W=K_f -K_i

where in this case:

W = -36,733 J is the work done by the parachute (negative because it is opposite to the motion)

K_i = 66,120 J is the initial kinetic energy of the car

K_f is the final kinetic energy

Solving,

K_f = K_i + W=66,120+(-36,733)=29387 J

The final kinetic energy of the car can be written as

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 661 kg is its mass

v is its final speed

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(29,387)}{661}}=9.4 m/s
