Answer:

220 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

initial speed of car= 22 m/s

final speed of car= 0 m/s

time taken by car to stop= 0.1 s

acceleration of car is equal to change in velocity per unit time

  a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{t}

  a = \dfrac{v_f-v_i}{t}

  a = \dfrac{0-22}{0.1}

         a = -220 m/s²

negative sign represent deceleration of the body

hence, deceleration of car is equal to a = 220 m/s²

A person on a cruise ship is doing laps on the promenade deck. On one portion of the track the person is moving north with a spe
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

T<u>he direction of motion</u> of the person relative to the water is <u>16.7° north of east.</u>

Why?

We can solve the problem by applying the Pitagorean Theorem, where the first speed (to the north) and the second speed (to the east) corresponds to two legs of the right triangle formed with them. (north and east directions are perpendicular each other)

We can calculate the angle that give the direction using the following formula:

Tan(\alpha)=\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed}\\\\Tan(\alpha)^{-1}=Tan(\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed})^{-1}\\\\\alpha=Tan(\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed})^{-1}

Now, substituting the given information we have:

alpha=Tan(\frac{NorthSpeed}{EastSpeed})^{-1}

\alpha =Tan(\frac{3.6\frac{m}{s} }{12\frac{m}{s} })^{-1}\\\\\alpha =Tan(0.3)^{-1}=16.69\°(North-East)=16.7\°(North-East)

Hence, we have that <u>the direction of motion</u> of the person relative to the water is 16.7° north of east.

Have a nice day!

Which of these is a mixture?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Air is a mixture.

Explanation:

Air is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of gaseous substances such as nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of others.

Carbon dioxide is a pure substance, not a mixture.

Carbon is another pure substance, it cannot be separated into other substances.

Oxygen is just oxygen, it does not contain any other substance.
