Answer:

x=?

dt=?

vi=23m/s

vf=0m/s (it stops)

d=0.25m/s^2

time =

vf=vi+d: 0=23m/s+(0.25m/s^2)t

t=92s

displacement=

vf^2=vi^2+2a(dx)

23^2=0^2+2(0.25m/s^2)x =-1058m

Explanation:

you can find time from vf = vi + a(Dt): 0 = 23 m/s + (0.25 m/s/s)t so t = 92 s and you can find the displacement from vf2 = vi2 + 2a(Dx) and find the answer in one step: 232 = 02 + 2(0.25 m/s/s)x so x = -1058 m

A student says that a speed of 50 m/s is faster than a speed of 140 km/h because the number is bigger. What would you say to the

ladessa [460]

The units are not consistent - 1 m/s is not the same as 1 km/h.

First thing to do would be to convert from one unit of speed to the other, say km/h to m/s. There are 1000 meters (m) for every kilometer (km) and 3600 seconds (s) for every hour (h), so

$1\,\dfrac{\mathrm{km}}{\mathrm h}\cdot\dfrac{10^3\,\mathrm m}{\mathrm{km}}\cdot\dfrac{\mathrm h}{3600\,\mathrm s}\approx0.278\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}$

So in fact 1 km/h is about 4 times slower than 1 m/s.

A box weighing 43.2 N is pulled horizontally until it slides uniformly lat a constant

GREYUIT [131]

Your diagram should include four forces:

• the box's weight, pointing down (magnitude w = 43.2 N)

• the normal force, pointing up (mag. n)

• the applied force, pointing the direction in which the box is sliding (mag. p = 6.30 N, with p for "pull")

• the frictional force, pointing oppoiste the applied force (mag. f )

The box is moving at a constant speed, so it is inequilibrium and the net forces in both the vertical and horizontal directions sum to 0. By Newton's second law, we have

n + (-w) = 0

and

p + (-f ) = 0

So then the forces have magnitudes

w = 43.2 N

n = w = 43.2 N

p = 6.30 N

f = p = 6.30 N

A. Group of cross country runners decided to go on an hour and a half run. During the first hour, they ran a total of 13 kilomet

pshichka [43]

Answer:

The average speed for the entire run is 12 km/h.

Explanation:

The average speed is given by the following equation:

$\overline{v} = \frac{d_{T}}{t_{T}}$

Where:

$d_{T}$ : is the total distance

$t_{T}$ : is the total time

If during the first hour, they ran a total of 13 kilometers and then, they ran 5.0 kilometers during the next half an hour we have:

$d_{T} = 13 km + 5 km = 18 km$

$t_{T} = 1 h + \frac{1}{2} h = 1.5 h$

Hence, the average speed is:

$\overline{v} = \frac{d_{T}}{t_{T}} = \frac{18 km}{1.5 h} = 12 km/h$

Therefore, the average speed for the entire run is 12 km/h.

I hope it helps you!

A car moves at the speed of 30km/h for 15 mins and then at the speed of 60km/h for the next 15 mins . how much dstance is covere

blagie [28]

Distance = speed x time. The total speed is 30 + 60 = 90km/h and the total time taken is 15 + 15 = 30 minutes. Therefore, you do 90 x 30 = 2700km

Answer = 2700km
