Answer:

The speed traveled by the car is 40 meter per second.

Explanation:

The formula for the relation between the power and the force is as follows:

P = Fv

Where F is the force and v is the speed.

As given

To travel at constant speed, a car engine provides 24KW of useful power. The driving force on the car is 600N.

F = 600 N

Convert power from KW to W.

1 KW = 1000 W

24 KW = 24 × 1000 W

           = 24000 W

Thus

P = 24000 W

Put these values in the formula.

24000 = 600 × v

24000 = 600v

v = \frac{24000}{600}

v = 40 meter per second .

Therefore the speed of the car is 40 meter per second .

At time t=0, a particle is located at the point (3,6,9). It travels in a straight line to the point (5,2,7), has speed 8 at (3,6
Elis [28]

The particle has constant acceleration according to

\vec a(t)=2\,\vec\imath-4\,\vec\jmath-2\,\vec k

Its velocity at time t is

\displaystyle\vec v(t)=\vec v(0)+\int_0^t\vec a(u)\,\mathrm du

\vec v(t)=\vec v(0)+(2\,\vec\imath-4\,\vec\jmath-2\,\vec k)t

\vec v(t)=(v_{0x}+2t)\,\vec\imath+(v_{0y}-4t)\,\vec\jmath+(v_{0z}-2t)\,\vec k

Then the particle has position at time t according to

\displaystyle\vec r(t)=\vec r(0)+\int_0^t\vec v(u)\,\mathrm du

\vec r(t)=(3+v_{0x}t+t^2)\,\vec\imath+(6+v_{0y}t-2t^2)\,\vec\jmath+(9+v_{0z}t-t^2)\,\vec k

At at the point (3, 6, 9), i.e. when t=0, it has speed 8, so that

\|\vec v(0)\|=8\iff{v_{0x}}^2+{v_{0y}}^2+{v_{0z}}^2=64

We know that at some time t=T, the particle is at the point (5, 2, 7), which tells us

\begin{cases}3+v_{0x}T+T^2=5\\6+v_{0y}T-2T^2=2\\9+v_{0z}T-T^2=7\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}v_{0x}=\dfrac{2-T^2}T\\\\v_{0y}=\dfrac{2T^2-4}T\\\\v_{0z}=\dfrac{T^2-2}T\end{cases}

and in particular we see that

v_{0y}=-2v_{0x}

and

v_{0z}=-v_{0x}

Then

{v_{0x}}^2+(-2v_{0x})^2+(-v_{0x})^2=6{v_{0x}}^2=64\implies v_{0x}=\pm\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3

\implies v_{0y}=\mp\dfrac{8\sqrt6}3

\implies v_{0z}=\mp\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3

That is, there are two possible initial velocities for which the particle can travel between (3, 6, 9) and (5, 2, 7) with the given acceleration vector and given that it starts with a speed of 8. Then there are two possible solutions for its position vector; one of them is

\vec r(t)=\left(3+\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3t+t^2\right)\,\vec\imath+\left(6-\dfrac{8\sqrt6}3t-2t^2\right)\,\vec\jmath+\left(9-\dfrac{4\sqrt6}3t-t^2\right)\,\vec k

38. You are fishing and catch a fish with a mass of
adoni [48]

Answer:

1.7333333m/s²

Explanation:

Tension of the line = the weight + force from pulling up the fish

30N = mg + ma

30 = (6)(9.8) + (6)a

10.4 = 6a

∴ a = 1.7333333m/s²

What will occur if a resistor with high resistance is inserted into a circuit?
Anton [14]
If the resistor is in series with the rest of the circuit then a is the correct answer. The voltage across the resistor in series with another resistor is
V \frac{R}{R+r}
where R is the big resistor and r is the small one and V is the total voltage drop across both.  This is called a voltage divider

When two equal forces act on the same object in opposite directions, what is the net force?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:
