Most of the countries in Europe use SI measurments. How could this be a problem if you went on a trip to Europe?

faust18 [17]

Not knowing how to convert the type of measurement according to your way of learning from where ever you come from.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 119m in 29s?

Assoli18 [71]

Do 112m /29s which it will be 3.862 which if you round it, it will be 3.86 m/s

A car is traveling at a speed of 38.0 m/s on an interstate highway where the speed limit is 75.0 mi/h. Is the driver exceeding t

Tom [10]

Answer: Yes, he is exceeding the speed limit

Explanation:

Hi!

This is problem about unit conversion

1 mile = 1,609.344 m

Then the speed limit v is:

v = 75 mi/h = 120,700.8 m/h

1 hour = 60 min = 60*60 s = 3,600 s

v = (120,700.8/3,600) m/s = 33.52 m/s

38 m/s is higher than the speed limit v.

A rocket in deep space has an empty mass of 150 kg and exhausts the hot gases of burned fuel at 2500 m/s. It is loaded with 600

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

$v(10\,s) \approx 775.387\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(20\,s)\approx 1905.350\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(30\,s) \approx 4023.595\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The speed of the rocket is given the Tsiolkovsky's differential equation, whose solution is:

$v (t) = v_{o} - v_{ex}\cdot \ln \frac{m}{m_{o}}$

Where:

$v_{o}$ - Initial speed of the rocket, in m/s.

$v_{ex}$ - Exhaust gas speed, in m/s.

$m_{o}$ - Initial total mass of the rocket, in kg.

$m$ - Current total mass of the rocket, in kg.

Let assume that fuel is burned linearly. So that,

$m(t) = m_{o} + r\cdot t$

The initial total mass of the rocket is:

$m_{o} = 750\,kg$

The fuel consumption rate is:

$r = -\frac{600\,kg}{30\,s}$

$r = -20\,\frac{kg}{s}$

The function for the current total mass of the rocket is:

$m(t) = 750\,kg - (20\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot t$

The speed function of the rocket is:

$v(t) = - 2500\,\frac{m}{s}\cdot \ln \frac{750\,kg -(20\,\frac{kg}{s} )\cdot t}{750\,kg}$

The speed of the rocket at given instants are:

$v(10\,s) \approx 775.387\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(20\,s)\approx 1905.350\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(30\,s) \approx 4023.595\,\frac{m}{s}$
