Super Mario and Bowser Jr. are racing around a track when Baby Bowser launches a green shell at Mario, bringing him to rest. Bow

ser Jr. then passes Mario at his top speed of 30 blocks/h, moving down the track in a straight line. Mario quickly accelerates and reaches his top speed of 40 blocks/h in order to catch back up and pass Bowser Jr., but by this point he has opened up a 75 block head start down the track. Mario world measure distance using the units of blocks, with 1 block = 0.47 m.
a) What are Mario and Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s?

Assuming both Mario and Bowser Jr. race to the finish in a straight line at their top speeds,

b) How long does it take for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.?

c) How far down the track is Mario from the point at which he reaches his top speed?

Answer:

(a). Mario's speed in m/s = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s.

Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s = 3.92 × 10^-3 m/s.

(b). 27001.2 seconds(s)..

(c). 141 metre(m).

Explanation:

So, the following data or parameters or information was given in the question above. These informations are going to help us in solving this question or problem;

=>" Bowser Jr. then passes Mario at his top speed = 30 blocks/h.

=> " Mario quickly accelerates and reaches his top speed of 40 blocks/h in order to catch back up and pass Bowser Jr., but by this point he has opened up a 75 block head start down the track."

=> "Mario world measure distance using the units of blocks, with 1 block = 0.47 m"

Therefore, the solution is given below;

(1). For the first part, we are to determine or calculate Mario and Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s.

Therefore, Mario's speed in m/s = 40 × 0.47) ÷ 3600 = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s.

Also, Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s = ( 30 × 0.47) ÷ 3600 = 3.92 × 10^3 m/s.

(2). So, the next thing to do now.is to determine or calculate how long it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.

Thus, the time it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr. Can be related as below;

[ ( 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s) - (3.92 × 10^-3 m/s) × (time,t taken for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.) = 75 × 0.47.

Therefore, the time it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr. = 27001.2 seconds.

(3). Now, we calculate How far down the track Mario from the point at which he reaches his top speed.

The distance = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s × 27001.2m = 141m

A block of mass m is pushed up against a spring, compressing it a distance x, and the block is then released. The spring project
Gwar [14]

Answer:

x' = 10 x

Explanation:

By energy conservation we know that spring energy is converted into kinetic energy of the block

so we will have

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

v = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}(x)

now we will have same thing for another mass 4m which moves out with speed 5v

so we have

5v = \sqrt{\frac{k}{4m}}(x')

now from above two equations we have

\frac{5v}{v} = \frac{x'}{2x}

so we have

x' = 10 x

When an RL circuit is connected to a battery, which is true about its initial and final states?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:A

Explanation:

In R-L circuit current is given by

i=i_0\left [ 1-e^{\frac{-t}{L/R}}\right ]

where i=current at any time t

i_0=maximum\ current

R=resistance

L=Inductance

at t=0 e^{\frac{-t}{L/R}} approaches to 1

therefore i=i_0\left [ 1-1\right ]

i=0

when t approaches to \infty,  e^{\frac{-t}{L/R}} approaches to zero

thus i=i_0

thus we can say that initially circuit act as broken wire with zero current

and it increases exponentially with time and act as ordinary connecting wire
