<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The initial distance between the trains is 1450 m. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the question two trains are of equal length 400 m and moves at a uniform speed of 72 km/h. train A is moving ahead of train B. If the train B has to overtake train A it should accelerate.

Train B’s acceleration  is 1m/s^2   and it accelerated for 50 seconds.

<em>a=1 m/s^2</em>

<em>t=50 s </em>

<em>initial speed u=72km/h </em>

<em>we have to convert this speed into m/s  </em>

<em>u=72 \times 5/18=20 m/s</em>

<em>Distance covered in accelerating phase  S=ut+1/2  at^2  </em>

<em>=20 \times 50+1/2 \times 1 \times 50^2</em>

<em>=1000+1250=2250 m </em>

If  a train is just behind another, the distance covered by the train located behind during overtaking phase will be equal to the sum of the lengths of the trains.

<em>Here length of train A+length of train B=400+400=800 m</em>

<em>Hence the initial distance between the trains = 2250-800=1450 m</em>

What is the primary source of energy for earths weather systems
PIT_PIT [208]
I believe the sun is the primary source of energy for Earth's weather system. The sun is the primary energy source for Earth's climate system which is the first set of essential principles of climate sciences. Additionally, it is the primary source that drives all weather events, including precipitation, hurricane and tornadoes. The sun drives the hydrologic cycle, and makes life on Earth possible.

Why isn't the earth the same distance from sun all year long?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Earth's orbit is elliptical

Explanation:

The earth's orbit is not a straight circle and the sun is not in the very center of it. The orbit is more of a wonky oval with the sun closer to one side of it than the other causing the earth's distance from the sun to vary throughout the year.

The position of a particle along a straight-line path is defined by s=(t3−6t2−15t+7) ft, where t is in seconds. part a part comp
WARRIOR [948]
A) The position of the particle along the straight-line path is given by
s=(t^3-6t^2-15 t+7)ft
where t is the time.
If we substitute t=11 s inside the equation, we find the total distance covered during this time, in feet:
s=(11)^3-6(11)^2-15(11)+7=597 ft
which converted into meters is s=182 m.

b) The average velocity of the particle at t=11 s is equal to the total distance travelled, s=597 ft, divided by the time taken, t=11 s:
v= \frac{s}{t}= \frac{597 ft}{11s} =54.3 ft/s
We can also calculate it in meters/second:
v= \frac{s}{t}= \frac{182 m}{11 s}=16.5 m/s
