Answer: he did travel 15 meters.

Explanation:

We have the data:

Acceleration = a = 1.2 m/s^2

Time lapes = 3 seconds

Initial speed = 3.2 m/s.

Then we start writing the acceleration:

a(t) = 1.2 m/s^2

now for the velocity, we integrate over time:

v(t) = (1.2 m/s^2)*t + v0

with v0 = 3.2 m/s

v(t) = (1.2 m/s^2)*t + 3.2 m/s

For the position, we integrate again.

p(t) = (1/2)*(1.2 m/s^2)*t^2 + 3.2m/s*t + p0

Because we want to know the displacementin those 3 seconds ( p(3s) - p(0s)) we can use p0 = 0m

Then the displacement at t = 3s will be equal to p(3s).

p(3s) = (1/2)*(1.2 m/s^2)*(3s)^2 + 3.2m/s*3s = 15m

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of contaminated water

= cross sectional area x height of water level

3.14 x 9 x 9 x 7.5 ft³

= 1907.55 ft³

mass = density x volume

= 1907.55 x 63.5 lbs

m = 121129.425 lbs

This mass has to be raised to the height of 8 ft before evacuation .

There is a rise of centre of mass of

8 - 7.5/2 ft

h = 4.25 ft

Energy required

= mgh

= 121129.425 x 32 x 4.25

= 16473601.8 unit.

A cylindrical can 150 mm in diameter is filled to a depth of 100 mm with a fuel oil. The oil has a mass of 1.56 kg. Calculate it
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Density (φ) = 0,8827 Kg/L

Specific weight (Ws) = 8,65 N/L

Specific gravity (Gs) = 0,8827 (without unit)

Explanation:

The density formula: φ = \frac{m}{V}

I know the mass "m", I need to find out the volume of the cylinder (V)

V = π* r²*h

The radius "r" is equal to half the diameter (150mm) = 75mm

Now I can find out the density (φ)

φ = \frac{1,56Kg}{1,767145L} = 0,8827 Kg/L

The specific weight (Ws) is the relationship between the weight of substance (oil) and its volume. We apply the following formula:

Ws = φ*g

(g = gravity = 9,8 m/s²)

Finally, specific gravity (Gs) is the ratio between the density of a substance (oil) "φ(o)" and the density of water "φ(w)" :

Gs = φ(o) /  φ(w)

(φ(w) = 1 Kg/L

Hope this can help you !!

A vacuum tube can be used to__. A. change alternating current into direct current B. increase the strength of a signal.. C. turn
vesna_86 [32]

The correct answer of this question is :  A) Change alternating current into direct current.

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, we are given vacuum tube. Vacuum tube can be of various types. Normally it contains two electrodes called cathode and anode which are enclosed in an evacuated glass chamber . There are also other types of vacuum tubes which contain extra electrodes like control grid .

The vacuum tube can be used as a rectifier. It means that it can be used as an electronic device which will convert alternating current into direct current. It may be a half wave rectifier or a full wave rectifier. Actually the direct current obtained during the rectification of alternating current is pulsating in nature.

Hence, the correct answer is that a vacuum tube can be used to change alternating current into direct current.
