Answer:

s = 589.3 m

Explanation:

Let the truck and car meet at a distance = s  m

The truck is moving at constant velocity = v

so s= v * t ---------- (1)

car:

Vi = 0 m/s

a = 3.9 m/s²

s = Vi* t + 1/2 a t²

s= 0 * t +  1/2 a t²

s =  1/2 a t²   ----------- (2)

compare equation (1)  and equation (2)

s= v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ v * t = 1/2 a t²

⇒ t = 2 * v/ a

⇒ t = (2 * 33.9 )/ 3.9

⇒ t = 17. 38 s

Now

from equation (1)

s= v * t

s= 33.9 * 17.38

⇒ s = 589.3 m

Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint
djyliett [7]

Answer:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Explanation:

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem

We have an inverse square law with distance for the force, so then the force of gravity between Earth and the spaceship is lower when the spaceship is far away from Earth.

Th formula is given by:

F = G \frac{m_{Earth} m_{Spaceship}}{r^2}

Where G is a constant G = 6.674 x10^{-11} m^2/ (ks s^2)

m_{Earth} represent the mass for the earth

m_{spaceship} represent the mass for the spaceship

r represent the radius between the earth and the spaceship

For this reason when the distance between the Earth and the Spaceship increases the Force of gravity needs to decrease since are inversely proportional the force and the radius, and for the other case when the Earth and the spaceship are near then the radius decrease and the Force increase.

Based on this case we can create the following rank:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

A biologist looking through a microscope sees a bacterium at r⃗ 1=2.2i^+3.7j^−1.2k^μm(1μm=10−6m). After 6.2 s , it's at r⃗ 2=4.6
stiv31 [10]

The Average velocity for the bacterium is 0.75 unit/sec.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given values are in the vector form

Where,

dS = distance covered

dT = time interval

Now, to calculate distance covered, we have

|d S|=\sqrt{d S^{2}}

&

d S=r_{2}-r_{1}

d S=(4.6 i+1.9 k)-(2.2 i+3.7 j - 1.2 k)

d S=(4.6-2.2) i+(0-3.7) j+(1.9+1.2) k

d S=2.4 i-3.7 j+3.1 k

Now, putting these values in the standard formula to evaluate the average velocity, we get;

v_{a v g}=\frac{|\mathrm{d} S|}{d T}

v(a v g)=\frac{|\sqrt{\left\{\left(2.4^{2}\right)+\left(3.7^{2}\right)+\left(3.1^{2}\right)\right\}}|}{7.2}

As dT=7.2 sec

Now,

Solving the equation, we get;

v(a v g)=\frac{5.390732789}{7.2}

\begin{aligned}&v(a v g)=\frac{5.39}{7.2}\\&v(a v g)=0.748611111\\&v(a v g)=0.75 \text { units / sec }\end{aligned}

Hence, the average velocity for the bacterium is 0.75 unit/sec.

A girl standing on a bridge throws a stone vertically downward with an initial velocity of 15.0 m/s into the river below. If the
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

the height of the bridge above the water is 49.6 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the stone, u = 15 m/s

time of motion of the stone, t = 2 s

The height of the bridge above the water is calculated from the following kinematic equation as follows;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

h = (15 x 2) + ¹/₂(9.8)(2²)

h = 30 + 19.6

h = 49.6 m

Therefore, the height of the bridge above the water is 49.6 m.
