Velocity - v =0 m/s,

initial velocity - v(0)= 40 m/s

a - acceleration,

time - t = 12 s.

v=v(0) - at

0 = 40m/s - a*12s

12a = 40

a = 3.3 m/s²

A certain brand of hot-dog cooker works by applying a potential difference of 120 V across opposite ends of a hot dog and allowi
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

The time it will take to cook three hot dogs simultaneously is 2.5 minutes

Explanation:

Here we have, the Energy of electric heating given by Joule heating that is;

P = IV = 120×10 = 1200 J/s = 1.2 kJ/s

Since the energy required to cook one hotdog = 60.0 kJ we have

Energy required to cook three hot dogs = 3 × 60.0 kJ  = 180.0 kJ

Therefore, the time required to cook the three hot dogs is

(180.0 kJ)/(1.2 kJ/s) = 150 s

The time it takes to cook three hot dogs simultaneously is

150 seconds or 150/60 minutes which is 2 minutes 30 seconds or 2.5 minutes

A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of
sesenic [268]

Answer:

42.5 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

x₀ = 0 m

x = 62 m

y₀ = 80 m

y = 0 m

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

aᵧ = -9.8 m/s²

Find: v

First, find the time it takes to land.

y = y₀ + v₀ᵧ t + ½ aᵧ t²

(0 m) = (80 m) + (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 4.04 s

Find the horizontal component vₓ:

x = x₀ + vₓ t − ½ aₓ t²

(62 m) = (0 m) + vₓ (4.04 s) − ½ (0 m/s²) (4.04 s)²

vₓ = 15.3 m/s

Find the vertical component vᵧ:

vᵧ = aᵧ t + v₀ᵧ

vᵧ = (-9.8 m/s²) (4.04 s) + (0 m/s)

vᵧ = -39.6 m/s

Find the speed using Pythagorean theorem:

v = √(vₓ² + vᵧ²)

v = √((15.3 m/s)² + (-39.6)²)

v = 42.5 m/s

Two wheels with fixed hubs, each having a mass of 1kg , start from rest, and forces are applied: F1= 1 N to the first wheel and
irina [24]

Answer:

2N

Explanation:

m = m_1 = m_2 = 1 kg

The torques generated by tangential forces on the 2 wheels are

T_1 = F_1R_1 = 1*0.5 = 0.5 Nm

T_2 = F_2R_2 = F_2*1 = F_2 Nm

According to Newton's 2nd law, the angular accelerations generated by these torque would be

\alpha_1 = \frac{T_1}{I_1} = \frac{0.5}{mR_1^2} = \frac{0.5}{1*0.5^2} = 2 rad/s^2

\alpha_2 = \frac{T_2}{I_2} = \frac{F_2}{mR_2^2} = \frac{F_2}{1*1^2} = F_2 rad/s^2

For the 2nd wheel to have the same angular acceleration, its force must be

\alpha_1 = \alpha_2

2 = F_2

F_2 = 2N
