Two cars are traveling along perpendicular roads, car A at 40 mi/hr, car B at 60 mi/hr. At noon, when car A reaches the intersec

tion, car B is 90 mi away, and moving toward it. At 1 p.m. the distance between the cars is changing, in miles per hour, at the rate of:

Answer:

\frac{dD}{dt} = -4 miles/hour

negative sign indicates that the distance is decreasing with time

Explanation:

Let at any time t after noon that is 12 p.m.  

distance traveled by car A = 40t

distance traveled by car B = 90-60t

then distance between the two cars at time t

D^2= (40t)^2+(90-60t)^2............1

also, at time 1 p.m.

distance D^2= (40\times1)^2+(90-60\times1)^2

D=50 Km

differentiating equation 1 w.r.t. t we get

2D\frac{dD}{dt}= 2\times40t\times40+2(90-60t)(-60)

put t= 1 and D= 50 we get

2\times50\frac{dD}{dt}= 3200\times1-3600\times1

\frac{dD}{dt} = -4 miles/hour

After a collision between two different massed objects; the larger objects accelerate at a faster rate than the smaller object?
Nitella [24]

Answer: Things continue doing what they are doing unless a force is applied to it. Objects have a natural tendency to resist change. This is INERTIA. Heavier objects (objects with more mass) are more difficult to move and stop. Heavier objects (greater mass) resist change more than lighter objects, so true

Explanation:

Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop. The Cadillac has more of a tendency to stay stationary (or continue moving), and resist a change in motion than a bicycle.

A 0.810 kg ball falls 2.5m. How much work does the force of gravity do on the ball?
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

W = 19.845 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as W = Fdcos\theta, where F is the force exerted and d is the distance. Because the direction the ball is falling is the same direction as the force itself, \theta = 0 deg, and since cos(0) = 1, this equation is equivalent to W = Fd. In this case, the force exerted is the weight force, which is equivalent to m * g. Substituting you get:

W = mgd = 0.810 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.5m

W = 19.845 J

Distance between the two place is 35 kilometers . If two persons start running towards each other from these two place with a sp
pashok25 [27]

The first person = A

The second one = B

velocity of A = 3 km / h

velocity of B = 4 km / h

Distance of A = 3t

Distance of B = 35 - 4t

At what time do they meet?

3t = 35 - 4t

7t = 35

t = 5 hours

7 a.m. + 5 hours = 12 p.m.
