Answer:

Data:-vi=0 ,vf=4m/s ,s=20m ,a=?

Explanation:

Solution according to 3rd eq of motion 2as=vf²-vi² here we have to find a so a=vf²-vi²/2s ,a=(4²) -(0)²/2×20 ,a=16/40 ,a=0.4m/sec²

How much work is done against gravity when lowering a 16 kg box 0.50 m? (g = 9.8 m/s2)

leonid [27]

Answer:

The work done against gravity is 78.4 J

Explanation:

The work is calculated by multiplying the force by the distance that the

object moves

W = F × d, where W is the work , F is the force and d is the distance

The SI unit of work is the joule (J)

We need to find the work done against gravity when lowering a

16 kg box 0.50 m

→ F = mg

→ m = 16 kg, and g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these value in the rule

→ F = 16 × 9.8 = 156.8 N

→ W = F × d

→ F = 156.8 N and d = 0.50

Substitute these values in the rule

→ W = 78.4 J

<em>The work done against gravity is 78.4 J</em>

The volume of a gas is 605 liters at 27.0°C. The new temperature is -3.0°C. What is the new volume?

nlexa [21]

From p1v1/t1 = p2v2/t2
pressure unchanged ... cancelled out
v1=605 , t1=27C = 300K,
t2=-3C = 270K
***remember temperature must be in Kelvin
we got
605/300 = v2/270
v2 = 545

It took a crew 9 h 36 min to row 8 km upstream and back again. If the rate of flow of the stream was 2 km/h, what was the rowing

babunello [35]

Answer:

3 km/h

Explanation:

Let's call the rowing speed in still water x, in km/h.

Rowing speed in upstream is: x - 2 km/h

Rowing speed in downstream is: x + 2 km/h

It took a crew 9 h 36 min ( = 9 3/5 = 48/5) to row 8 km upstream and back again. Therefore:

8/(x - 2) + 8/(x + 2) = 48/5 (notice that: time = distance/speed)

Multiplying by x² - 2², which is equivalent to (x-2)*(x+2)

8*(x+2) + 8*(x-2) = (48/5)*(x² - 4)

Dividing by 8

(x+2) + (x-2) = (6/5)*(x² - 4)

2*x = (6/5)*x² - 24/5

0 = (6/5)*x² - 2*x - 24/5

Using quadratic formula

$x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(6/5)(-24/5)}}{2(6/5)}$

$x = \frac{2 \pm 5.2}{2.4}$

$x_1 = \frac{2 + 5.2}{2.4}$

$x_1 = 3$

$x_2 = \frac{2 - 5.2}{2.4}$

$x_2 = -1\; 1/3$

A negative result has no sense, therefore the rowing speed in still water was 3 km/h
