Answer:

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

Explanation:

given,

constant speed of truck  = 28 m/s

acceleration of car = 1.2 m/s²

passes the truck in 545 m

speed of the car when it just pass the truck = ?

time taken by the truck to travel 545 m

              time =\dfrac{distance}{speed}

              time =\dfrac{545}{28}

              time =19.46 s

velocity of the car when it crosses the truck

S = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

545= u\times 19.46 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 19.46^2

u = 16.33 m/s

the velocity of car when it passes the truck is u = 16.33 m/s

A 56.0 kg box hangs from a rope. what is the tension in the rope if: the box has vy = 5.30 m/s and is speeding up at 5.10 m/s2 ?
Minchanka [31]

T = tension force in the rope in upward direction

m = mass of the box attached at end of rope = 56 kg

W = weight of the box in downward direction due to gravity

a = acceleration of the box in upward direction = 5.10 m/s²

weight of the box is given as

W = mg

inserting the values

W = (56) (9.8)

W = 548.8 N


force equation for the motion of the box is given as

T - W = ma

inserting the values

T - 548.8 = (56) (5.10)

T = 834.4 N

For adults, the RDA of the amino acid lysine is 12 mg per kg of body weight. How many grams per day should a 78kg adult receive?
kari74 [83]
RDA stands for Recommended Daily Allowance. To determine the amount needed of a certain adult per day, we simply multiply the mass of the adult to the value of RDA. For this case, we do as follows:

Daily requirement = 12 mg/kg ( 78 kg ) = 936 mg of lysine = 936000 g

Why is the curve between 1950 and 1980 relatively flat and centered around zero degrees difference from the baseline? (Hint: how
zimovet [89]

Look at the title of the graph, in small print under it.

Each point is "compared to 1950-1980 baseline". So the set of data for those years is being compared to itself. No wonder it matches up pretty close !

The acceleration of the car with the data in the table above would be
neonofarm [45]

The acceleration of the car would be 0.33 first and then it would be 0.17.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by an individual or another item. On the off chance that an individual is pushing a work area over the room, at that point there is an applied power following up on the article. The applied power is the power applied on the work area by the individual.

The net force applied to the object rises to the mass of the article increased by the measure of its acceleration. The net power following up on the soccer ball is equivalent to the mass of the soccer ball duplicated by its adjustment in speed each second (its acceleration).
