Answer:

Acceleration a ≤ 3 m/s^2

the greatest acceleration that the truck can have without losing its load is 3 m/s^2

Explanation:

For the truck to accelerate without losing its load.

Acceleration force of truck must be less than or equal to the maximum friction force between the truck bed and the load.

Fa ≤ F(friction)

But;

Fa = mass × acceleration

Fa = ma

ma ≤ F(friction)

a ≤ (F(friction))/m ......1

Given;

Fa = mass × acceleration

Fa = ma

mass m = 800 kg

F(friction) = 2400 N

Substituting the given values into equation 1;

a ≤ F(friction)/m

a ≤ 2400N/800kg

a ≤ 3 m/s^2

the greatest acceleration that the truck can have without losing its load is 3 m/s^2

1. A student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.

In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.  She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.

0.4 miles = 0.64 km

displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km

(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time

t = 15 min = 0.25 hour

v=\dfrac{1.04\ km}{0.25\ h}\\\\v=4.16\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.

Determine the right answer to fill in the blank spaces
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

A pure substance is something that is entirely made up of particles that are identical to each other.

Any substance that is not pure, must be a mixture.

We are surrounded by mixtures. The air is a mixture of gases . The oceans are a mixture of (mainly) water and salt. The solid earth is mostly rock, which is a mixture of different minerals.

Natural resources are substances we need and use, which occur naturally. Some come from living things, (example) cotton other are non-living (example)  sand.

The opposite of a natural resource is a made resource.

Bob is coming toward you at a speed of 75 km/hr. You throw a baseball in his direction at 75 km/hr. What does he see the ball do
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

He sees the ball coming at him at 150 km/hr.

Explanation:

In Newtonian physics, the observer would say that the velocity of the first object is the sum of the two velocities.

Due to the same direction, both velocities will be added.
