The car has a 12 mile head start, going 80 mph, so his distance is:dcar=80∗t+12
The is going at 108 mph, so his distance is:dcop=108t
Setting them equal to each other we get:80t+12=108t⇒12=28t⇒t=1228=37
So 3/7 of an hour.about 25.7 mins.

Answer:

The time is 0.428 hr.

Explanation:

Given that,

Final speed = 108 mph

Initial speed = 80 mph

Distance = 12 miles

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

v = \dfrac{d}{t}

d = distance

t = time

Put the value into the formula

108-80=\dfrac{12}{t}

t = \dfrac{12}{108-80}

t =0.428\ hr

Hence, The time is 0.428 hr.

A car accelerates from rest at -3.00m/s^2. What is the velocity at the end of 5.0s? What is the displacement after5.0s?
Andrew [12]

Speed = (acceleration) x (time)
Velocity = (speed) in (direction of the speed)

Speed = (-3 m/s²) x (5 s) = 15 m/s
Velocity =
             (15 m/s) in the direction opposite to the direction you call positive
.

Displacement = (distance between start-point and end-point)
                           in the direction from start-point to end-point.

Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)²
Distance = (1/2) (3 m/s²) (5 s)²
                 = (1/2) (3 m/s²) (25 s²)  =  37.5 meters

Displacement =
                     37.5 meters in the direction opposite to the direction you call positive.

imagine riding a single-speed bicycle. why do you have to push harders on the pedals to start the bicycle moving than to keep it
Flura [38]
A large force is required to accelerate the mass of the bicycle and rider. Once the desired constant velocity is reached, a much smaller force is sufficient to overcome the ever-present frictional forces.
