A car starts off at a 0mph the final velocity is 203mph and the acceleration is an AVERAGE of 2.93ft/s^2 and it is traveling up

a 6.4% slope. The curvy trail is 12.42 miles long but the question is, if the trail was a straight line from start to finish how long would it take the car to travel that distance?

A car starts off at a 0 mph, the final velocity is 203 mph and the acceleration is an average of 2.93 ft/s² and it is traveling up a 6.4% slope. If the straight line trail is 12.42 miles long, the time take the car to travel that distance is 0.075 hour = 270 s

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change in displacement while acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Acceleration may be positive or negative. Acceleration is positive when the velocity of the object is increases and it is negative when velocity of the object is decreases. Negative acceleration is also called deceleration.

Mathematically

a =\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

Where a is the acceleration of the object, v_{f} is the final velocity of the object and v_{i} is the initial velocity of the object. t is equal to time taken.

Given data:

v_{f} = 203 miles/h

v_{i}  = 0 miles/h

a = 2.93 ft/s²

d = 12.42 miles

t = ?

As velocities and acceleration given in different units, So we need to convert to obtain same units. Here we convert unit of acceleration  from ft/s² to miles/h².

1 ft/s² = 2454.5454545455 miles/h²

2.93 ft/s² = 7191.8181818182 miles/h²

So,

a = 7191.81 miles/h²

Apply formula

a =\frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

t = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{a}

t = 203/7191.81

t₁ = 0.028 hour = 101.61 s

We use 3rd equation of motion to calculate distance cover during this time interval

2ad = v_{f}^{2} - v_{i}^{2}

2*7191.81*d = 203 - 0

d = 2.86 miles

remaining distance = 12.42 - 2.86 = 9.56 miles

Now we use

d = v*t

t = d/v

t = 9.56/203

t₂ = 0.047 hour = 169.52 s

Total time = T = t₁ + t₂

T = 0.028 + 0.047

T = 0.075 hour = 270 s

A very bouncy ball is dropped from a height of 2.47 m to an asphalt playground surface and the height of its 4 th bounce is meas
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

0.912

Explanation:

Given that

Height of bouncing of the ball, h = 1.71 m

Number of times the ball bounced, n = 4 times

Height from which the ball was dropped, H = 2.47

First, let's start by defining what coefficient of restitution means

Coefficient of Restitution, CoR is the "ratio of the final to initial relative velocity between two objects after they collide. It normally ranges from 0 to 1 where 1 would be a perfectly elastic collision."

It is mathematically represented as

CoR = (velocity after collision) / (velocity before collision)

1.71 = 2.47 * c^4, where c = CoR

1.71/2.47 = c^4

c^4 = 0.6923

c = 4th root of 0.6923

c = 0.912

Calculate the acceleration due to gravity inside earth as a function of the radial distance r from the planet's center. (hint: i
denis-greek [22]
An estimated value for gravity at a distance r from the middle of the Earth can be gotten by supposing that the Earth's density is spherically symmetric. The gravity hinge on only on the mass inside the sphere of radius r. All the assistances from outside cancel out as a fall out of the inverse-square law of gravitation. Another result is that the gravity is the same as if all the mass were concentrated at the midpoint. Therefore, the gravitational acceleration at this radius is 
g(r) = GM(r) / r² 
M(r) = mass enclosed by radius r. 
If the Earth had a continual density ρ, the mass would be M(r) = (4/3)πρr³ and the dependence of gravity on distance would be 
g(r) = (4/3)πGρr 
G = 6.674e-11 m³/kgs²

Displacement is the area under the velocity/time graph. So for example this object's displacement in the first 3 seconds is (1/2)(3sec)(12.5 m/s)= 18.75m. (and then it starts backing up, displacement decreasing, after 3sec when velocity is negative).

But This object is never speeding up. Its velocity is smoothly decreasing at (25/6) m/s^2 (the slope of the graph). So the answer to the question is actually zero.

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is A) inversely proportional to the current in the wire and
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is directly proportional to the current in the wire and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire.

Explanation:

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_0I}{2\pi d}............(1)

Where

\mu_o = permeability of free space, \mu_o=4\pi\times 10^{-7}\ T-m/A

I = current flowing in the wire

d = distance from wire

From equation (1), it is clear that the magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is directly proportional to the current flowing and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire. So, the correct option is (d).
