Answer:

31.68 meters per second.

Explanation:

Speed is equals to Distance divided by Time, so, this means that speed is inversely proportional to time and directly proportional to distance.

Here, Distance is given which is 274 meters.

          Time taken to cover the given distance is 8.65 seconds.

So, by putting the values of distance and time in the formula of speed we will get the top speed of Cheetah which is 31.68 meters per second.

A bus is moving at a speed of 150km/hr. Begins to slow at a constant rate of 3.0m/s each second. Find how far it goes before sto
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Distance = 13.9 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Maximum speed = 150 km/hr to meters per seconds = 150 * 1000/3600 = 41.67 m/s

Decelerating speed = 3m/s

To find the distance travelled with this speed;

Distance = maximum speed/decelerating speed

Distance = 41.67/3

Distance = 13.9 meters

Therefore, the bus would travel a distance of 13.9 meters before stopping.

If an object accelerates from rest, what will its velocity be after 1.3 s if it has a constant acceleration of 9.1 m/s^2?
HACTEHA [7]

\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Initial velocity,} ~v_0 = 0~ \text{m~s}^{-1}\\\\\text{Time,  t = 1.3~sec}\\\\\text{Acceleration, a = 9.1 m s}^{-2}\\\\\\\\\text{Velocity,}\\\\v = v_0  +at\\\\\implies v = 0 + 9.1 \times 1.3 = 11.83~~ \text{m~s}^{-1}

Beth, a construction worker, attempts to pull a stake out of the ground by pulling on a rope that is attached to the stake. The
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Fy=107.2 N

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

For a right triangle :

sinβ = y/h formula (1)

cosβ = x/h formula (2)

x: side adjacent to the β angle

y:  opposite side of the β angle

h: hypotenuse

Known data

h = T = 153.8 N : rope tension

β= 44.2°with the horizontal (x)

Problem development

We apply the formula (1) to calculate Ty : vertical component of the rope force.

sin44.2° = Ty/153.8 N

Ty = (153.8 N ) *(sen44.2°)= 107.2 N  directed down

for equilibrium system

Fy= Ty=107.2 N

Fy=107.2 N upward component of the force acting on the stake

A device that converts high voltages to lower voltages is a(n) ________.
AysviL [449]

Answer: A) Transformer

Explanation: A Transformer is an apparatus, device or a component in a system that is used to convert high voltage into low voltage. It is used to either increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current.

A transformer uses the basic principle of electro magnetic induction, having two or more coils, the voltage is changed from one coil to another but with thesame frequency as alternating current energy passes through them.

a_sh-v [17]

The sister suddenly pushes her brother. As a result, the sister moves with kinetic energy k. The resulting kinetic energy of the brother is k/2.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

The ability of an object to do work by virtue of its motion is called the kinetic energy.

A brother and sister are standing next to each other at rest on a surface of frictionless ice. The brother’s mass is exactly twice that of his sister’s.

If the sister's mass is m, the brother's mass is 2m.

The kinetic energy of sister is k =1/2 mv²,

The velocity will also get halved for brother, So, the kinetic energy of brother will be

k' = 1/2 (2m)(v/2)²

On comparing, the relation between the kinetic energy of brother and sister is k' = k/2

Thus, the resulting kinetic energy of the brother is k/2.
