A boy in a wheelchair (total mass 56.5 kg) has speed 1.40 m/s at the crest of a slope 2.05 m high and 12.4 m long. At the bottom

of the slope his speed is 6.30 m/s. Assume air resistance and rolling resistance can be modeled as a constant friction force of 41.0 N. Find the work he did in pushing forward on his wheels during the downhill ride.

Answer: 439.01 J

Explanation:

The Kinetic Energy at the top + Potential Energy at the top + Work Done = Kinetic Energy at the bottom + Friction loss

1/2mv² + mgh + W = 1/2 mv² + Fd

1/2 * 56.5 * (1.4)² + 56.5 * 9.8 * 2.05 + W = 1/2 * 56.5 * (6.3)² + 41 * 12.4

1/2 * 56.5 * 1.96 + 56.5 * 9.8 * 2.05 + W = 1/2 * 56.5 * 39.69 + 41 * 12.4

55.47 + 1135.085 + W = 1121.243 + 508.4

1190.555 + W = 1629.643

W = 1629.643 - 1190.555

W = 439.088

W = 439.09 J

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

160 m

Explanation:

The intensity, I, of the sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, r, from the source.

I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

Hence,

I_1r_1^2 = I_2r_2^2

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}}

From the question, I_2 is half of I_1

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{\dfrac{I_1}{0.5I_1}}

r_2 = r_1\sqrt{2}

r_2 = 113\text{ m}\sqrt{2} = 160 \text{ m}

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

43km/h to m/s = 11.9444

Explanation:

1 km = 1000 m; 1 hr = 3600 sec. To convert km/hr into m/sec, multiply the number by 5 and then divide it by 18.

(1 point) A pilot flies in a straight path for 1 hour and 30 min. She then makes a course correction, heading 10 degrees to the
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position

Explanation:

Since the pilot is traveling at a constant speed of 635 mph, the total distance traveled can be easily found as follows:

1stleg: d_{1} = 1.5*635 = 952.5 mi\\2ndleg: d_{2} = 2*635 = 1270 mi

There was a 10 degrees deviation, so the angle between the trajectory of both legs is 170 degrees.

The distance we need to find is that from the start of the first leg to the end of the second leg, those three distances form a triangle and since the side we're interested in is opposite to the 170 degrees angle, we can determine its length by the law of cosines:

d_{3}^{2} =d_{1}^{2} + d_{2}^{2} -2*d_{1}*d_{2}*cos(170)\\d_{3}^{2} =952.5^{2} + 1270^{2} -2*952.5*1270*cos(170)\\d_{3}=2214.22mi

The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position
