-- You and your partner both get the same job to do:

Each of you gets a pallet of bricks, and you have to
put the bricks up on the bed of a truck, by hand.
Both pallets have the same number of bricks.

The pallet is way too heavy to lift, so you both cut the bands
that hold the bricks, and you lift the bricks from the pallet onto
the truck, by hand, two or three or four bricks at a time.

-- You get your pallet of bricks onto the truck in 45 minutes.

-- Your partner gets his pallet of bricks onto the truck in 3 days.

-- Work = (force) times (distance).

    You and your partner both lifted the same amount of weight
     up to the same height.  You both did the same amount of work.

-- Power = (work done) divided by (time it takes to do the work) .

  
Your partner took roughly 96 times as long as you took
   to do the same amount of work. 
   You did it faster.  He did it slower.
   You produced more power.  He produced less power.

Un vehiculo se desplaza con movimiento rectilio uniforme. Sabiendo que recorre 90 km en 3 horas. Averiguo la velocidad en m/s.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Velocidad = 500 m/s

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Distancia = 90 km

Tiempo = 3 horas

Conversión;

Por distancia:

1 kilómetro = 1000 metros

90 kilómetros = 90 * 1000 = 90,000 metros

Para el tiempo:

1 hora = 60 segundos

3 horas = 60 * 3 = 180 segundos

Para encontrar la velocidad en m/s;

Matemáticamente, la velocidad viene dada por la ecuación;

Velocidad = \frac {distancia} {tiempo}

Sustituyendo en la fórmula, tenemos;

Velocidad = 90000/180

Velocidad = 500 m/s

A 1700kg rhino charges at a speed of 50.0km/h. what average force is needed to bring the rhino to a stop in 0.50s?
uranmaximum [27]
From 50km/h to 0km/h in 0.5s we need next acceleration:
First we convert km/h in m/s:
50km/h = 50*1000/3600=13.8888 m/s
a = v/t = 13.88888/0.5 = 27.77777 m/s^2

Now we use Newton's law:

F=m*a

F=1700*27.7777 = 47222N
