Hello, Kaypau3969

A gamma ray is a strong energy ray that has nothing no charge neither mass.

If my answer helped please leave a thanks rate it 5 stars and the most important mark me as brainliest thank you and have the best day ever!

The engine in an imaginary sports car can provide constant power to the wheels over a range of speeds from 0 to 70 miles per hou

puteri [66]

Answer:

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

Explanation:

Given:

Range of speed during which constant power is supplied to the wheels by the car is $0\ mph\ to\ 70\ mph$ .

Initial velocity of the car, $v_i=0\ mph$

final velocity of the car during the test, $v_f=32\ mph=14.3052\ m.s^{-1}$

Time taken to accelerate form zero to 32 mph at full power, $t=1.2\ s$

initial velocity of the car, $u_i=0\ mph$

final desired velocity of the car, $u_f=64\ mph=28.6105\ m.s^{-1}$

Now the acceleration of the car:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}$

$a=\frac{14.3052-0}{1.2}$

$a=11.921\ m.s^{-1}$

Now using the equation of motion:

$u_f=u_i+a.t$

$64=0+11.921\times t$

$t=5.3687\ s$ is the time taken by the car to accelerate the desired range of the speed from zero at full power.

A 20 ft ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder is 3 ft from the wall at time t=0 and slides away from the wall at

stellarik [79]

Answer: 0.516 ft/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder L=20 ft

The speed at which the ladder moving away is v=2 ft/s

after 1 sec, the ladder is 5 ft away from the wall

So, the other end of the ladder is at

$\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{20^2-5^2}=19.36\ ft$

Also, at any instant t

$\Rightarrow l^2=x^2+y^2$

differentiate w.r.t.

$\Rightarrow 0=2xv+2yv_y\\\\\Rightarrow v_y=-\dfrac{x}{y}\times v\\\\\Rightarrow v_y=-\dfrac{5}{19.36}\times 2=0.516\ ft/s$

A string under a tension of 50.4 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 2.51 m at a speed of 21.1 m/s. The s

Leokris [45]

Answer:

619.8 N

Explanation:

The tension in the string provides the centripetal force that keeps the rock in circular motion, so we can write:

$T=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

T is the tension

m is the mass of the rock

v is the speed

r is the radius of the circular path

At the beginning,

T = 50.4 N

v = 21.1 m/s

r = 2.51 m

So we can use the equation to find the mass of the rock:

$m=\frac{Tr}{v^2}=\frac{(50.4)(2.51)}{21.1^2}=0.284 kg$

Later, the radius of the string is decreased to

r' = 1.22 m

While the speed is increased to

v' = 51.6 m/s

Substituting these new data into the equation, we find the tension at which the string breaks:

$T'=m\frac{v'^2}{r'}=(0.284)\frac{(51.6)^2}{1.22}=619.8 N$
