A world record was set for the men’s 100-m dash in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing by Usain Bolt of Jamaica. Bolt "coasted" ac

ross the finish line with a time of 9.69 s. If we assume that Bolt accelerated for 3.00 s to reach his maximum speed, and maintained that speed for the rest of the race, calculate his maximum speed and his acceleration. (b) During the same Olympics, Bolt also set the world record in the 200-m dash with a time of 19.30 s. Using the same assumptions as for the 100-m dash, what was his maximum speed for this race?

Answer:

a) v = 12.21m/s

a = 4.07 m/s²

b)v = 11.24m/s

a =  3.75 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Dividing the moviment into two parts:

I - With acceleration

v = v₀ + at

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

  • v₀ = 0
  • s₀ = 0
  • a = ?
  • v = ?
  • t = 3s
  • s = x

v = v₀ + at

v = 3a ⇒ a = v/3

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

x = v/3.3²/2

x = 3v/2

II - Uniform

s = s₀ + vt

s = 100

s₀ = x

v = v

t = 9.69 - 3 = 6.69s

s = s₀ + vt

100 = x + v*6.69

100 = x + 6.69v

As x = 3v/2

100 = 3v/2 + 6.69v

100 = 1.5v + 6.69v

100 = 8.19v

v = 12.21m/s

a = v/3 = 4.07 m/s²

b) Dividing the moviment into two parts:

I - With acceleration

v = v₀ + at

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

  • v₀ = 0
  • s₀ = 0
  • a = ?
  • v = ?
  • t = 3s
  • s = x

v = v₀ + at

v = 3a ⇒ a = v/3

s = s₀ + v₀t + at²/2

x = v/3.3²/2

x = 3v/2

II - Uniform

s = s₀ + vt

s = 200

s₀ = x

v = v

t = 19.30 - 3 = 16.30s

s = s₀ + vt

200 = x + v*16.3

100 = x + 16.3v

As x = 3v/2

200 = 3v/2 + 16.3v

200 = 1.5v + 16.3v

200 = 17.8v

v = 11.24m/s

a = v/3 = 3.75 m/s²

Order the numbers below least to greatest<br> Please help me
n200080 [17]

The given numbers ordered from least to greatest is:

{√7 , 2.8..., π, √17,  4.6}

<h3>How to order the numbers from least to greatest?</h3>

First, we need to write all the given numbers in decimal form so we can accurately compare them.

The numbers are:

{4.6, √7, π, 2.8..., √17}

Rewriting all of these in decimal form:

√7 = 2.64

π = 3.14159265....

√17 = 4.12

Then the numbers are:

{4.6, 2.64, 3.14159265....,  2.8..., 4.12}

Now is easier to order these numbers, ordering them from least to greatest we will get:

{2.64, 2.8..., 3.14159265...., 4.12, 4.6}

Now, using the original notation we get:

{√7 , 2.8..., π, √17,  4.6}

What are the values of x and y in PQRS? What are PR and SQ?
mamaluj [8]

Step-by-step explanation:

sol;

x+1=y...(1)

3y-7=2x....(2)

or, 3(x+1)-72x [from (1)]

or, 3x+3-7=2x

or, 3x-2x=7-3

     x=4

now,

putting the value of x in (1)

y=x+1

 =4+1

 =5

PR and SQ are the diagonal of PQRS.

Jade says that the absolute value of a number and the opposite of a number is the same thing. Is Jade correct? Use examples to h
avanturin [10]

Answer:

No, the absolute value of a number is different from the opposite.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, the absolute value of 4 is 4.

l4l = 4

But the opposite of 4 is -4.

Absolute value is ALWAYS positive, but the opposite of a positive number is a negative number.
