Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1.56 m/s

Explanation:

For East direction, the 6 blocks is equivalent to 6*100=600 m

For West direction, 8 blocks is equivalent to 8*100=800 m

Speed is given by s=d/t where s is speed, d is distance covered and t is time taken

Total distance is 600+800=1400m

Time taken is 15 mins, converted to seconds will be 15*60=900 s

Speed, s=1400/900=1.5555555555555 m/s rounded off as 1.56 m/s

Ronch [10]

Answer: 1.

<em>The earliest known life-forms are putative fossilized microorganisms, found in hydrothermal vent precipitates, that may have lived as early as 4.28 Gya (billion years ago), relatively soon after the oceans formed 4.41 Gya, and not long after the formation of the Earth 4.54 Gya.</em>

<em>2.There are many theories about why we dream, but no one knows for sure. Some researchers say dreams have no purpose or meaning. Others say we need dreams for our mental, emotional, and physical health. or</em>

<em>Most dreaming occurs during REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, which we cycle through periodically during the night. Sleep studies show our brainwaves are almost as active during REM cycles as they are when we're awake. Experts believe the brainstem generates REM sleep and the forebrain generates dreams.</em>

3.A clear rule determines exactly what makes a prime: it's a whole number that can't be exactly divided by anything except 1 and itself. But there's no discernable pattern in the occurrence of the primes. ... That's because after the number 5, there are only four possibilities — 1, 3, 7 and 9 — for prime last digits

4.There are no cures for any kinds of cancer, but there are treatments that may cure you. Many people are treated for cancer, live out the rest of their life, and die of other causes. Many others are treated for cancer and still die from it, although treatment may give them more time: even years or decades.

6.Our universe may be one of many, physicists say. The universe we live in may not be the only one out there. In fact, our universe could be just one of an infinite number of universes making up a "multiverse." Though the concept may stretch credulity, there's good physics behind it.

7.Consciousness is everything you experience. It is the tune stuck in your head, the sweetness of chocolate mousse, the throbbing pain of a toothache, the fierce love for your child and the bitter knowledge that eventually all feelings will end.

A force in the +x -direction with magnitude F(x)=18.0N−(0.530N/m)x is applied to a 7.90 kg box that is sitting on the horizontal
dsp73

Answer:

v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The equation of equlibrium for the box is:

\Sigma F_{x} = 18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x = (7.90\,kg)\cdot a

The formula for the acceleration, given in \frac{m}{s^{2}}, is:

a = \frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg}

Velocity can be derived from the following definition of acceleration:

a = v\cdot \frac{dv}{dx}

v\, dv = a\, dx

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {\frac{18\,N-(0.530\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot x}{7.90\,kg} } \, dx

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} =\frac{18\,N}{7.90\,kg}  \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m}\, dx  - \frac{0.530\,\frac{N}{m} }{7.90\,kg} \int\limits^{17\,m}_{0\,m} {x} \, dx

\frac{1}{2}\cdot v^{2} = (2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}

v =\sqrt{2\cdot[(2.278\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot x |_{0\,m}^{27\,m}-(0.034\,\frac{1}{s^{2}})\cdot x^{2}|_{0\,m}^{27\,m}]  }

The speed after the box has travelled 17 meters is:

v\approx 8.570\,\frac{m}{s}
