Given:
acceleration rate: 10.60 m/s²
1st speed: 55 mi/hr
2nd speed: 60 mi/hr

notice that they use different units. m/s² and mi/hr. We need to convert one unit to the other for uniformity and consistency.

1 m/s = 2.23694 mi/hr     OR    1 mi/hr = 0.44704 m/s

1st speed: 55 mi/hr → 55mi/hr * 0.44704 m/s / 1mi/hr = 24.5872 m/s
2nd speed: 60 mi/hr → 60mi/hr * 0.44704 m/s / 1mi/hr = 26.8224 m/s

Acceleration formula:
Acceleration = Change in velocity / time → Vf-Vi / t

10.60 m/s² = (26.8224 m/s - 24.5872 m/s) / t
10.60 m/s²  * t = 2.2352 m/s
t = 2.2352 m/s ÷ 10.60 m/s²
t = 0.2109 s. 

It would take 0.2109 seconds to change from 55 mi/hr to 60 mi/hr at 10.60 m/s² acceleration rate.

A vertical wire carries a current straight up in a region where the magnetic field vector points due north. What is the directio
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

Explanation:

Given;

direction of the magnetic field to be due north

Applying right hand rule which states that: to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of velocity v, the fingers in the direction of magnetic field B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of magnetic force.

Since the magnetic force must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, and direction of the magnetic field is due north, then the magnetic force must be due East.

Therefore, the direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

How can hand tools help every technician for their safety in doing hard servicing activities​
Anni [7]

Answer: Hand tools are necessary for daily activities.

Explanation:

The hand tools are useful for day to day activities they aid in pouring substances, holding things, mixing substances, cleaning and for other purposes. In a chemical laboratory the hand tools like test tube holders can help in holding the chemicals. In a medical laboratory the forceps can be useful in holding and cutting the sections without causing any harm to the hands. Hand tools avoid the direct contact with the microorganisms in medical laboratory thus protect against infections. Hand tools aid in surgical operations and they help in avoiding direct contact with the blood vessels and organs preventing contamination and infections.

PLEASE HELP!!!! What are 3 ways that machines can make doing work easier? (thats the whole question)
Rudiy27

Answer:

Machines reduce the time of work hence reducing the rate of doing work ( power ).

Machines e.g pulleys carry heavy loads with a less and reasonable effort.

Machines e.g generators induce current in a limited amount of time
