Answer:

V_avg = 578.6364 miles/hr

Explanation:

Given:

- The distance between airports d = 1,273 miles

- The time taken for the flight t = 2.2 hr

Find:

The average speed of the jet

Solution:

- The average speed of the jet is given by V_avg:

V_avg = Total distance traveled / Total time

V_avg = 1273 / 2.2

V_avg = 578.6364 miles/hr

Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. The centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest t

Vinvika [58]

Answer

Time period T = 1.50 s

time t = 40 s

r = 6.2 m

Angular speed ω = 2π/T

= $\dfrac{2\pi }{1.5}$

= 4.189 rad/s

Angular acceleration α = $\dfrac{\omega}{t}$

= $\dfrac{4.189}{40}$

= 0.105 rad/s²

Tangential acceleration a = r α = 6.2 x 0.105 = 0.651 m/s²

b)The maximum speed.

v = 2πr/T

= $\dfrac{2\pi \times 6.2}{1.5}$

= 25.97 m/s

So centripetal acceleration.

a = $\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

= $\dfrac{25.97^2}{6.2}$

= 108.781 m/s^2

= 11.1 g

in combination with the gravitation acceleration.

$a_{total} = \sqrt{(11.1g)^2+g^2}$

$a_{total}= 11.145 g$

pashok25 [27]

I think the correct answer would be that the temperature of the clouds that made the very first stars where thought to be higher since the clouds are made up of hydrogen and helium. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Tortoise and the Hare

Tanya [424]

The answer would be D. The tortoise moved at a constant velocity throughout the race; the hare stopped to rest periodically.

Hope this helped. Good luck!

A cart moving at 10 m/s is brought to a stop by the force plotted in the force-time graph shown here. Find the impulse and the a

Elena L [17]

Answer:

Impulse = 88 kg m/s

Mass = 8.8 kg

Explanation:

We are given a graph of Force vs. Time. Looking at the graph we can see that the Force acts approximately between the time interval from 1sec to 4sec.

Newton's Second Law relates an object's acceleration as a function of both the object's mass and the applied net force on the object. It is expressed as:

$F=ma$ Eqn. (1)

where

$F$ : is the Net Force in Newtons ( $N$ )

$m$ : is the mass ( $kg$ )

$a$ : is the acceleration ( $m/s^2$ )

We also know that the acceleration is denoted by the velocity ( $v$ ) of an object as a function of time ( $t$ ) with

$a=\frac{v}{t}$ Eqn. (2)

Now substituting Eqn. (2) into Eqn. (1) we have

$F=m\frac{v}{t}\\ \\Ft=mv$ Eqn. (3)

However since in Eqn. (3) the time-variable is present, as a result the left hand side (i.e. $Ft$ is in fact the Impulse $J$ of the cart ), whilst the right hand side denotes the change in momentum of the cart, which by definition gives as the impulse. Also from the graph we can say that the Net Force is approximately ≈ $22N$ and $t=4 sec$ (thus just before the cut-off time of the force acting).
