KiRa [710]

Answer:

S=720m anf vf=12m/s

Explanation:

acceleration=a=0.1m/s²

time taken=t=2minutes=2×60=120seconds

vi=0m/s

vf=?

distance covered=S=?

by using second equation of motion

S=vit+1/2at²

S=0m/s×120seconds+1/2(0.1m/s²)(120s)²

S=0m/s+1/2×1440m

S=720m

and now we have to find the vf

vf=vi+at

vf=0m/s+(0.1m/s)(120s)

vf=12m/s

i hope it will help you

If a train is 100 kilometers away, how much sooner would you hear the train coming by listening to the rails (iron) as opposed t
Whitepunk [10]
From tables, the speed of sound at 0°C is approximately
V₁ = 331 m/s (in air)
V₃ = 5130 m/s (in iron)

Distance traveled is
d = 100 km = 10⁵ m

Time required to travel in air is
t₁ = d/V₁ = 10⁵/331 = 302.12 s

Time required to travel in iron is
t₂ = d/V₂ = 10⁵/5130 = 19.49 s

The difference in time is
302.12 - 19.49 = 282.63 s

Answer:  283 s (nearest second)

A force of 14 lb is required to hold a spring stretched 4 in. beyond its natural length. How much work W is done in stretching i
enyata [817]

Answer:

W = 19.8 J

Explanation:

14 lb force is required to stretch the spring by 4 inch distance

So we have

F = 14 lbf

F = 6.35 \times 9.8 N

F = 62.3 N

stretch in the spring is given as

x = 4 in = 0.1016 m

now we will have

F = kx

62.3 = k(0.1016)

k = 613.125 N/m

Now we need to find the work to stretch it by x = 10 in = 0.254 m

so we have

W = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

W = \frac{1}{2}(613.125)(0.254)^2

W = 19.8 J
