Answer:

4.11 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ₓ = 1.25 m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

aᵧ = -9.8 m/s²

t = 0.4 s

Find: v

First, in the x direction:

vₓ = aₓt + v₀ₓ

vₓ = (0 m/s²) (0.4 s) + 1.25 m/s

vₓ = 1.25 m/s

And in the y direction:

vᵧ = aᵧt + v₀ᵧ

vᵧ = (-9.8 m/s²) (0.4 s) + 0 m/s

vᵧ = -3.92 m/s

The net speed is found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v² = (1.25 m/s)² + (-3.92 m/s)²

v = 4.11 m/s

An automobile traveling 95 km/h overtakes a 1.30-km-long train traveling in the same direction on a track parallel to the road.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Same direction: t=234s; d=6.175Km

Opposite direction: t=27.53s; d=0.73Km

Explanation:

If the automobile and the train are traveling in the same direction, then the automobile speed relative to the train will be $v_{AT}=v_A-v_T$ (the train must see the car advancing at a lower speed), where $v_A$ is the speed of the automobile and $v_T$ the speed of the train.

So we have $v_{AT}=(95km/h)-(75Km/h)=20Km/h$ .

So the train (anyone in fact) will watch the automobile trying to cover the lenght of the train L at that relative speed. The time required to do this will be:

$t = \frac{L}{v_{AT}} = \frac{1.3Km}{20Km/h} = 0.065h=234s$

And in that time the car would have traveled (relative to the ground):

$d=v_At=(95Km/h)(0.065h)=6.175Km$

If they are traveling in opposite directions, we have to do all the same but using $v_{AT}=v_A+v_T$ (the train must see the car advancing at a faster speed), so repeating the process:

$v_{AT}=(95km/h)+(75Km/h)=170Km/h$

$t = \frac{L}{v_{AT}} = \frac{1.3Km}{170Km/h} = 0.00765h=27.53s$

$d=v_At=(95Km/h)(0.00765h)=0.73Km$

Determine the magnitude of the effective value of g⃗ at a latitude of 60 ∘ on the earth. assume the earth is a rotating sphere.

dezoksy [38]

In addition to acceleration of gravity we experience centrifugal acceleration away from the axis of rotation of the earth. this additional acceleration has value ac = r w^2 where w = angular velocity and r is distance from your spot on earth to the earth's axis of rotation so r = R cos(l) where l = 60 deg is the lattitude and R the earth's radius and w = 1 / (24hr x 3600sec/hr)
now you look up R and calculate ac then you combine the centrifugal acc. vector ac with the gravitational acceleration vector ag = G Me/R^2 to get effective ag' = ag -

!WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!

vazorg [7]

As per angular momentum conservation we can say

$L_i = L_f$

here we know that

$mv_1r_1 = mv_2r_2$

we know that

$v_1 = 1.1 m/s$

$r_1 = 0.6 m$

$v_2 = ?$

$r_2 = 0.15 m$

now from above equation

$2(1.1)(0.6) = 2(v_2)(0.15)$

$v_2 = \frac{(1.1)(0.6)}{0.15}$

$v_2 = 4.4 m/s$

so speed is 4.4 m/s

BRAINLIEST!! What did Robert Sternberg believe about intelligence?

Sindrei [870]

The triarchic theory of intelligence was formulated by Robert J. Sternberg, a prominent figure in the research of human intelligence. The theory by itself was groundbreaking in that it was among the first to go against the psychometric approach to intelligence and take a more cognitive approach
