Answer:
0.8 seconds
Explanation:
F=ma
Let x be the seconds the force is applied.
m = 20kg
F = 50 Newtons (kg*m/sec^2)
acceleration, a, is provided for x seconds to increase the speed from 1 m/s to 3 m/s, an increase of 2m/s
Let's calculate the acceleration of the cart:
F=ma
(50 kg*m/s^2) = (20kg)*a
a = 2.5 m/s^2
---
The acceleration is 2.5 m/s^2. The cart increases speed by 2.5 m/s every second.
We want the number of seconds it takes to add 2.0 m/sec to the speed:
(2.5 m/s^2)*x = 2.0 m/s
x = (2.0/2.5) sec
x = 0.8 seconds
Answer:
At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels. ... Since most of the atmosphere's molecules are held close to the earth's surface by the force of gravity, air pressure decreases rapidly at first, then more slowly at higher levels.

Answer:
The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.
Explanation:
The school bus travels on the freeway at constant speed. According to the statement, we need to calculate the distance travelled by the vehicle by means of the following formula:
(1)
Where:
- Traveled distance, in miles.
- Speed, in miles per hour.
- Time, in hours.
If we know that 
and 
, then the distance travelled by the school bus is:
The distance travelled on the freeway is 149.5 miles.
Answer:
Time of flight A is greatest
Explanation:
Let u₁ , u₂, u₃ be their initial velocity and θ₁ , θ₂ and θ₃ be their angle of projection. They all achieve a common highest height of H.
So
H = u₁² sin²θ₁ /2g
H = u₂² sin²θ₂ /2g
H = u₃² sin²θ₃ /2g
On the basis of these equation we can write
u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂=u₃ sinθ₃
For maximum range we can write
D = u₁² sin2θ₁ /g
1.5 D = u₂² sin2θ₂ / g
2 D =u₃² sin2θ₃ / g
1.5 D / D = u₂² sin2θ₂ /u₁² sin2θ₁
1.5 = u₂ cosθ₂ /u₁ cosθ₁ ( since , u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂ )
u₂ cosθ₂ >u₁ cosθ₁
u₂ sinθ₂ < u₁ sinθ₁
2u₂ sinθ₂ / g < 2u₁ sinθ₁ /g
Time of flight B < Time of flight A
Similarly we can prove
Time of flight C < Time of flight B
Hence Time of flight A is greatest .
