Answer: -4m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Acceleration a is defined as the variation of Velocity \Delta V in time \Delta t :  

a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}

In this case \Delta V=10m/s - 30m/s  and \Delta t=5 s.

Therefore:

a=\frac{10m/s - 30m/s}{5 s}

a=\frac{-20m/s}{5 s}

a=-4 m/s^{2}  Note the negative sign indicates the car is slowing

510 g squirrel with a surface area of 935 cm2 falls from a 4.8-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use the dr
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The terminal velocity is v_t  =17.5 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The mass of the squirrel is  m_s  =  50\ g  =  \frac{50}{1000} =  0.05 \  kg

      The surface area is   A_s =  935 cm^2  =  \frac{935}{10000} = 0.0935 \ m^2

       The height of fall is  h =4.8 m

        The length of the prism is l =  23.2 = 0.232 \ m

          The width of the prism is w =  11.6 =  0.116 \ m

 

The terminal velocity is mathematically represented as

       v_t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 * m_s *  g }{\dho_s * C  * A } }

Where \rho  is the density of a rectangular prism with a constant values of \rho  =  1.21 \ kg/m^3

            C is the drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver with a value = 1

            A  is the area of the prism the squirrel is assumed to be which is mathematically represented as

      A =  0.116 * 0.232

       A =  0.026912 \ m^2

 substituting values

      v_t  =  \sqrt{\frac{2 * 0.510 *  9.8 }{1.21 * 1  * 0.026912 } }

     v_t  =17.5 \ m/s

The alarm at a fire station rings and a 87.5-kg fireman, starting from rest, slides down a pole to the floor below (a distance o
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

F_f=840N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Weight of fireman W_f= 87.5kg

Pole distance D=4.10m

Final speed is V_f 1.75m/s

Generally the equation for velocity is mathematically represented as

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2 a d

Therefore Acceleration a

a'= v^2 / 2 d

a'= 0.21m/s^2

Generally the equation for Frictional force F_f is mathematically given as

F_f=m*a

F_f=m*(g-0.21)

F_f=87.5*(9.81-0.21)

Therefore

F_f=840N

An electric car uses a 45-kW (160-hp) motor. If the battery pack is designed for 340V, what current would the motor need to draw
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Current = 132.35 A

The motor needs to draw 132.35 Amperes current from the battery.

Explanation:

The formula of electric power is given as follows:

Power = (Voltage)(Current)

Current = Power/Voltage

In this question, we have:

Power = 45 KW = 45000 W

Voltage of Battery Pack = 340 V

Current needed to be drawn = ?

Therefore,

Current = 45000 W/340 V

<u>Current = 132.35 A</u>

<u>The motor needs to draw 132.35 Amperes current from the battery.</u>
