-- reduce the length of a wire to 1/2 . . . cut the resistance in half

-- reduce the diameter to 1/4 . . . reduce the cross-section area by (1/4²) . . . increase the resistance by 16x .

-- R2 = (R1) · (1/2) · (16)  =  8 · R1

<em>-- R2 / R1  =  8</em>

Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hour in 2.22 s
muminat

Answer:

Acceleration = 10.06 m/s²

Explanation:

1 mile = 1.6093km

1609.3m = 1 mile

1 m = \frac{1}{1609} mile

50.0 miles/hour = \frac{50 * 1609.3}{60 * 60} m/s

                          = 22.35m/s

from equation

S = Ut + 1/2 at²

v = U + at

22.35 = 0 + a * 2.22

a = 22.35 ÷ 2.22

= 10.06 m/s²

A ball rolls horizontally off a table of height 0.6 m with a speed of 9 m/s. How long does it take the ball to reach the ground?
denis23 [38]

Answer: 0.067 s

Explanation:s = Ut + 1/2at^2

0.6 = 9t + 0.5 *10 *t^2

Where a = g =10m/s/s

Solving the quadratic equation

5t^2 + 9t - 0.6=0,

t= 0.067 s and - 1.7 s

Of which 0.067 s is a valid time
