How fast would you be going (in kmh) if you had a ship that accelerated at a constant 1g for 24 hours?

Answer:

Explanation:

1 g is 9.8 m/s^2 the problem wants the results in km/h so we'll fix that really quick.

9.8 m/s^2 (1 km/1000m)(60 sec/1 min)^2(60 min/1 hour)^2 = 127008 km/hour^2

Now, I'm assuming the ship is starting from rest, and hopefully you know your physics equations. We are going to use vf = vi + at. Everything is just given, or we can assume, so I'll just solve.

vf = vi + at

vf = 0 + 127008 km/hour^2 * 24 hours

vf = 3,048,192 km/hour

If there's anything that doesn't make sense let me know.

Which of the following is not a true statement?<br> v=at<br> O art

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

t = Δa / v

Explanation:

To know which option is not true, we shall fine a relationship between acceleration (a), velocity (v), time (t) and radius (r). This is illustrated below:

Acceleration can simply be defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as shown below:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

a = Δv / t ..... (1)

But

Δv = v₂ – v₁

Substitute the value of Δv into equation (1)

a = Δv / t

a = v₂ – v₁ / t ....... (2)

From equation (1), make Δv the subject of the equation.

a = Δv / t

Cross multiply

Δv = at .... (3)

From equation (1), make t the subject of the equation.

a = Δv / t

Cross multiply

at = Δv

Divide both side by a

t = Δv /a ...... (4)

From circular motion, centripetal's force is given by:

F = mv²/r

F = ma꜀

Therefore,

ma꜀ = mv²/r

Cancel out m

a꜀ = v²/r

SUMMARY:

a = Δv / t

a = v₂ – v₁ / t

Δv = at

t = Δv /a

a꜀ = v²/r

Considering the options given in question above, t = Δa / v is not a true statement.

Superman throws a 2400 n boulder at a villain. what horizontal force must superman apply to the boulder to give a horizontal acc

Ksenya-84 [330]

The boulder has a weight of W=2400 N. The weight of an object is the product between its mass m and the gravitational acceleration g:
$W=mg$
Rearranging the relationship, we can calculate the mass of the boulder:
$m= \frac{W}{g}= \frac{2400 N}{9.81 m/s^2}=244.6 kg$

We are told that Superman applies a horizontal force to this object, and as a result, the acceleration of the boulder is $a=12.0 m/s^2$ . We can find the force applied by using Netwon's second law of motion:
$F=ma=(244.6 kg)(12.0 m/s^2)=2935 N$
