.0 s and slows down at a rate of 3.70 m/s2 until it stops at the next station. What is the total distance covered in kilometers?

Answer:

1868.5 m

Explanation:

For AB :

u = 0 m/s

a = + 1.68 m/s^2

t = 14.2 s

Let the distance is s1 and the velocity at B is v.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + at

v = 0 + 1.68 x 14.2 = 23.856 m/s

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as_{1}

23.856^{2}=0^{2}+2\times1.68\times s_{1}

s1 = 169.38 m

For BC:

Let the distance is s2.

s2 = v x t

s2 = 23.856 x 68 = 1622.21 m

For CD:

u = 23.856 m/s

a = - 3.7 m/s^2

v = 0

Let the distance is s3.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as_{3}

0^{2}=23.856^{2}-2\times 3.7 \times s_{3}

s3 = 76.91 m

The total distance traveled is

s = s1 + s2 + s3

s = 169.38 + 1622.21 + 76.91 = 1868.5 m

Thus, the total distance traveled is 1868.5 m.

Answer:

total distance = 1868.478 m

Explanation:

given data

accelerate = 1.68 m/s²

time = 14.2 s

constant time = 68 s

speed = 3.70 m/s²

to find out

total distance

solution

we know train start at rest so final velocity will be after 14 .2 s is

velocity final = acceleration × time      ..............1

final velocity = 1.68 × 14.2

final velocity = 23.856 m/s²

and for stop train we need time that is

final velocity = u + at

23.856 = 0 + 3.70(t)

t = 6.44 s

and

distance = ut + 1/2 × at²     ...........2

here u is initial velocity and t is time for 14.2 sec

distance 1 = 0 + 1/2 × 1.68 (14.2)²

distance 1 = 169.37 m

and

distance for 68 sec

distance 2= final velocity × time

distance 2= 23.856 × 68

distance 2 = 1622.208 m

and

distance for 6.44 sec

distance 3 = ut + 1/2 × at²

distance 3 = 23.856(6.44) - 0.5 (3.70) (6.44)²

distance 3 = 76.90 m

so

total distance = distance 1 + distance 2 + distance 3

total distance = 169.37 + 1622.208 + 76.90

total distance = 1868.478 m

An electrician wraps rubber electrical tape around a copper wire. Since rubber is an insulator, which statement best explains th
yuradex [85]

A) Rubber stops charges from flowing. This protects people by stopping electricity from flowing.

Explanation:

The statement that best describes the point of wrapping rubber around the copper wire is that the rubber stops charges from flowing. This prevents people from getting electrical shocks by stopping the flow  of electricity.

  • A rubber is an insulator.
  • Insulators are substances that prevents the flow of electricity.
  • The lack free mobile electrons or ions that makes them conductors.
  • When they are wrapped round a conductor such as copper wire, they will halt the flow of charges.
  • Copper is a conductor of both heat and electricity. It has free mobile electrons.

Three cars (car F, car G, and car H) are moving with the same velocity when the driver suddenly slams on the brakes, locking the
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Car H

Explanation:

Frictional force is a resistant force. It is given as:

F = u*m*g

Where u = coefficient of friction

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

From the formula above, we see that frictional force is dependent on the mass of object and the coefficient of friction.

Since they all have the same tires, the coefficient of friction between the tire and the floor is the same for each car. Acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant.

The only factor that determines the frictional force of each car is the mass. Hence, the more the mass, the more the frictional force.

So, the most massive car will have the most frictional force and hence, will come to a stop quicker than the others. The least massive car will have the least frictional force and so, will take a longer time to stop.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

–77867 m/s/s.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

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

Acceleration = (final velocity – Initial velocity) /time

a = (v – u) / t

With the above formula, we can obtain acceleration of the ball as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 34.5 m/s

Final velocity (v) = –23.9 m/s

Time (t) = 0.00075 s

Acceleration (a) =?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (–23.9 – 34.5) / 0.00075

a = –58.4 / 0.00075

a = –77867 m/s/s

Thus, the acceleration of the ball is –77867 m/s/s.

Explain why a Merry-Go-Round and a Ferris Wheel have a constant acceleration when they are moving.
luda_lava [24]

Explanation:What is centripetal acceleration?

Can an object accelerate if it's moving with constant speed? Yup! Many people find this counter-intuitive at first because they forget that changes in the direction of motion of an object—even if the object is maintaining a constant speed—still count as acceleration.

Acceleration is a change in velocity, either in its magnitude—i.e., speed—or in its direction, or both. In uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity changes constantly, so there is always an associated acceleration, even though the speed might be constant. You experience this acceleration yourself when you turn a corner in your car—if you hold the wheel steady during a turn and move at constant speed, you are in uniform circular motion. What you notice is a sideways acceleration because you and the car are changing direction. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this acceleration will become. In this section we'll examine the direction and magnitude of that acceleration.

The figure below shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity, which points directly toward the center of rotation—the center of the circular path. This direction is shown with the vector diagram in the figure. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration
