8 0

He would lower his center of gravity so that it would be harder for him to fall, and so that he can stay and become balanced on his ski's.

If the absolute temperature of a gas is 600 K, the temperature in degrees Celsius is
gavmur [86]
Kelvin is a base unit of temperature scale from SI that defines as zero degree Kelvin (absolute zero). The absolute zero is a hypothetical statement that all molecular movement stops because there is no transient of energy for the molecules to move. When converting temperature in degree Celsius to Kelvin, add 273. You are given 600K and you are asked to find it in degrees Celsius.  

T(K) = T(C) + 273
600 K = T(C) + 273
T(C) = 600 – 273
T(C) = 327 °C

A car is stopped at a traffic light. It then travels along a straight road so that its distance from the light is given by x(t)=
True [87]

Answer:

(a) average velocity = 17.6 m/s

(b) when t = 0, v = 0

    when t = 4, v = 19.2 m/s

    when t = 8, v = 28.8 m/s

(c) after starting from rest, the car will be at rest again in 20 s

Explanation:

Given;

x(t)=bt²−ct³, substitute the given values and the equation will become;

x(t)=3t²−0.1t³

(a)average velocity = total distance / total time

total distance, x(t) = 3t²−0.1t³

x(8) = 3t²−0.1t³

X(8) = 3(8)² - 0.1(8)³

X(8) = 140.8 m

total time = 8 s

average velocity = 140.8 / 8

average velocity = 17.6 m/s

(b) instantaneous velocity = dx / dt

dx / dt = 6t - 0.3t²

when t = 0

v = 0

when t = 4 s

v = 6(4) - 0.3(4²) = 19.2 m/s

when t = 8 s

v = 6(8) - 0.3(8²) = 28.8 m/s

(c) the velocity is zero at dx / dt = 0

6t - 0.3t² = 0

t(6 - 0.3t) = 0

t = 0    or  6 - 0.3t = 0

t = 0     or   0.3t = 6

t = 0      or   t = 6 / 0.3

t= 0       or    t =  20 s

After starting from rest, the car will be at rest again in 20 s
