If the motorcycle can go from 0 to 50mph in 3 seconds the person is describing the motorcycle's acceleration.

Answer:

acceleration

Explanation:

He is describing the acceleration of motorcycle.

Here the initial velocity is zero, final velocity is 50 miles / hr, time taken is 3 sec.

Convert miles per hour into metre per second.

50 miles / hr = 22.352 m/s

using first equation of motion,

v = u + a x t

a = \left ( \frac{v - u}{t} \right )

a = \left ( \frac{22.352 - 0}{3} \right )

a = 7.45 m/s^2

A car travels 60 km in the first 2 hours and 68 km in the next 2 hours. What’s the cars average speed?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

<u>The car's average speed is 32 kilometers per hour</u>

Explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

First two hours = 60 kilometers

Next two hours = 68 kilometers

2. What is the car's average speed?

Total distance traveled by the car = 60 + 68

Total distance traveled by the car = 128

Total time of travel = 2 + 2 hours

Total time of travel = 4 hours

Average speed = Total distance/Total time

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Average speed = 128/4

<u>Average speed = 32 kilometers per hour</u>

What is gravitational force??​
kherson [118]

Answer:

gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of attraction acting between all matter. ... On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects.

A skier with a mass of 63 kg starts from rest and skis down an icy (frictionless) slope that has a length of 50 m at an angleof
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the skier reaches the bottom of the slope , height lost by it

h = 50 sin32 m

= 26.5 m

potential energy lost

= mgh

Gain of kinetic energy

= 1/2 mv²

mgh = 1/2 mv²

v = √ 2gh

= √ (2x9.8 x 26.5)

= 22.8 m /s

b )

Let μ be the coefficient of kinetic friction required.

friction force acting

= μmg

work done by friction in displacement of  d (40 m ) on horizontal surface

- μmg x d

This negative work will be equal to positive kinetic energy of the skier on horizontal surface .

=  μmg x d  = (1/2) m v²

μ = v² / (2 gd)

= 519.4 / (2 x 9.8 x 140 )

= .19

A 0.31 kg cart on a horizontal frictionless track is attached to a string. The string passes over a disk-shaped pulley of mass 0
Stella [2.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second law and its derived expressions for angular and linear movements.

Our values are given by,

M_{cart} = 0.31kg\\m_{pulley} = 0.08kg\\r_{pulley} = 0.012m\\F = 1.1N\\

If we carry out summation of Torques on the pulley we will have to,

F_2*d-F_1*d = I \alpha

Where,

I = Inertia moment

\alpha =Angular acceleration, which is equal in linear terms to a/r (acceleration and radius)

The moment of inertia for this object is given as

I = \frac{1}{2} mr^2

Replacing this equations we have know that

(F_2 - F_1)d = (\frac{1}{2}(m_{pulley})r^2) (\frac{a}{r})

F_2 - F_1 = \frac{1}{2}m_{pulley} \frac{F_1}{M_{cart}}

F_2 = (1+\frac{1}{2}(\frac{m_{pulley}}{M_{cart}}))F_1

Or

F_1 = \frac{F_2}{(1+\frac{1}{2}(\frac{m_{pulley}}{M_{cart}}))}

Replacing our values we have that

F_1 = \frac{1.1}{(1 + (0.5)(\frac{0.08}{0.31}))}

F_1 = 0.974 N

Therefore the tension in the string between the pulley and the cart is  0.974 N
