Because the speedometer responds directly and proportionally to acceleration (whether speeding up or breaking). If the speedometer displayed average speed it would not be directly affected by changes in speed due to acceleration
Answer:
419815.72 N
Explanation:
F = Force
t = Time
Average speed
Time = Distance / Speed
Impulse
The force exerted on the pier is 419815.72 N
Answer:
Time, t = 13.34 seconds.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, u = 85km/hr to meters per seconds = 85*1000/3600 = 23.61 m/s
Final velocity, v = 45km/hr to meters per seconds = 45*1000/3600 = 12.5 m/s
Acceleration, a = -3 km/hr/sec to meters per seconds square = -3*1000/3600 = -0.833m/s²
To find the time;
Acceleration = (v - u)/t
-0.833 = (12.5 - 23.61)/t
-0.833t = -11.11
t = 11.11/0.833
Time, t = 13.34 seconds.
Rearrange the equation so that the unknown variable is by itself on one side of the equals sign (=) and all the other variables are on the other side. RULE #1: you can add, subtract, multiply and divide by anything, as long as you do the same thing to both sides of the equals sign.
