Answer:
t = 0.33h = 1200s
x = 18.33 km
Explanation:
If the origin of coordinates is at the second car, you can write the following equations for both cars:
car 1:
(1)
xo = 10 km
v1 = 55km/h
car 2:
(2)
v2 = 85km/h
For a specific value of time t the positions of both cars are equal, that is, x=x'. You equal equations (1) and (2) and solve for t:
The position in which both cars coincides is:
Answer:
50 W
Explanation:
<h3><u>Given :</u></h3>- Force applied = 100 N
- Distance covered = 5 metres
- Time = 10 seconds
Power
<h3><u>Solution :</u></h3>For calculating power, we first need to know about the work done.
Now, substituting values in the above formula;
Work = 100 × 5
= 500 Nm or 500 J
We know that,
Substituting values in above formula;
Power = 500/ 10
= 50 Nm/s or 50 W
Hence, power = 50 W .
