A world class sprinter can accelerate at 5.0 m/s squared, from the rest in the starting blocks to their top speed in 4.0 seconds

. What distance will such a sprinter cover during that time?
Physics
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The distance covered by the sprinter, s = 40 m

Explanation:

Given data,  

The initial velocity of the sprinter, u = 0 m/s

The acceleration of the sprinter, a = 5 m/s²

The time period of acceleration of the sprinter, t = 4 s

Using the II equations of motion

                   s = ut + ½ at²

                       = 0 + ½ (5) (4)²

                       = 40 m

Hence, the distance covered by the sprinter, s = 40 m

A chunk of paraffin (wax) has a mass of 50.4 grams and a volume of 57.9 cm3. What is the density of
tatiyna

Density  =  (mass) / (volume)

              =  (50.4) / (57.9)  =  0.87 gm/cm³

Since the density is less than 1.0, the paraffin floats in water.

Since it's so close to 1.0 on the low side, the paraffin floats
with most of it under the water line.

Mike's car, which weighs 1,000 kg, is out of gas. Mike is trying to push the car to a gas station, and he makes the car go 0.05
Maru [420]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: F = 50 N

Explanation:

Data

mass = 1000 kg

acceleration = 0.05m/s2

F = ?

Formula

F = m x a

Substitution

F = 1000 kg x 0.05 m/s2 = 50 kgm/s2 = 50 N

Mike is applying a force of 50 N to the car.

Which is true concerning the acceleration due to Earth's gravity (ge) ? It decreases with increasing altitude. B. It is differe
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Option A decreases with increase in altitude

Explanation:

This can be explained as the value of gravitational acceleration, 'g' is not same everywhere.

It has its maximum value at poles of the Earth and minimum on its equator.

Thus a person will weigh more at poles than equator.

This variation is in accordance to:

g = \frac{GM_{E}}{radius^{2}}

Thus the gravitational acceleration changes as inverse square of the Radius of the Earth.

Thus as we move away from the Earth's center, gravitational acceleration, g decreases.

A 0.0663 kg ingot of metal is heated to 241◦C
Westkost [7]

Answer:280.216j/kg°C

Explanation:

Mass of metal=0.0663kg

mass of water=0.395kg

Final temperature=27.4°C

Temperature of metal=241°C

Temperature of water=25°C

specific heat capacity of water=4186j/kg°C

0.0663xax(241-27.4)=0.395x4186x(27.4-25)

0.0663xax213.6=0.395x4186x2.4

14.16168a=3968.328

a=3968.328 ➗ 14.16168

a=280.216j/kg°C
