Answer:

The new speed is 56.25 miles/hour.

Explanation:

Since speed = distance/time;

time = distance/speed.

While driving at 50 miles/hour, time taken for one to complete 1 mile is (1/50) hour

(1/50) hour = (1/50) × 3600s = 72 seconds.

So, if this time to complete 1 mile (72 seconds) is reduced by 8 seconds,

New time to complete 1 mile will be = 72 - 8 = 64 seconds = (64/3600) hour = 0.0178 hour

New speed would be = (1 mile/64 seconds) = (1 mile/0.0178 hour) = 56.25 miles/hour.

Hope this Helps!!!

What do you know about potential energy? And how do we use it?
Liula [17]
Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. There are basically two main types of energy, kinetic and potential. Potential energy is energy that is stored. There are various types of stored, or potential energy. Chemical energy from a battery is a potential form of energy, elastic energy in a stretched rubber band is a form of potential energy, but the most commonly referred to form of potential energy in physics is that of gravitational potential energy. This is energy that is stored due to an object's position. It is dependent on the mass of the object, the height of the object above the ground or Earth, and the acceleration due to gravity.

If the magnitude of F1 is greater than the magnitude of F2, then the box is
Lady bird [3.3K]

Assuming that the vectors are acting along the same axis, we could just simply add or subtract the vectors. Since the F1 is greater than F2, there would be motion, there would be acceleration, and that the direction of motion is along the F1.

What is kinematics ?<br>explain ~​
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.

and/or

Kinematics is the study of motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how the momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.

Cart a having a mass of 150 kg initially moving to the right at a speed of 8 m/s collides with cart b with a mass of 150 kg, ini
kakasveta [241]

The speed of cart b is 6m/s while the total momentum of the systmen is 4200 kg m/s

<h3>Conservation of Linear Momentum</h3>

Given Data

  • Mass of cart one M1  = 150kg
  • Initial Velocity U1 = 8m/s
  • Final VelocityV1 = 5 m/s

Mass of cart two M2  = 150kg

Velocity U2 = 6m/s

Applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum we have

M1U1+M2U2 = M1V1+ M2V2

a. what is the speed of cart b after collision

substituting our given data we have

150*8+ 150*6 = 150*5+150*V2

1200 + 900 = 1200+ 150V2

2100 - 1200 = 150V2

900 = 150V2

Divide both sides by 150

V2 = 900/150

V2 = 6m/s

b. what is the total momentum of the system before and after collision

Total Momentum in the system is

Total momentum = Momentum before Impact+ Momentum after Impact

Total momentum = M1U1+M2U2 + M1V1+ M2V2

Total momentum = 1200 + 900 + 1200+ 900

Total momentum = 4200 kg m/s

what is the main reason that attitudes are more often revealed in spoken rather than written language
pishuonlain [190]
It's a combination of all those things. probably because we are taught from an early age to write in an academic fashion, giving balanced arguments and a conclusion. When speaking from the heart, there is no opposing argument nor is there a conclusion, just emotion.
