Answer:

2 m/s²

Explanation:

a = Δv / Δt

a = (3 m/s − 1 m/s) / 1 s

a = 2 m/s²

A life preserver is thrown from an helicopter straight down to a person in distress. The initial velocity of the life preserver

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:29.627 m

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity of life preserver(u) is 1.6 m/s

it takes 2.3 s to reach the water

using equation of motion

v=u+at

$v=1.6+9.81\times 2.3$

v=24.163 m/s

Let s be the height of life preserver

$v^2-u^2=2gs$

$24.163^2-1.6^2=2\times 9.81\times s$

$s=\frac{581.29}{2\times 9.81}$

s=29.627 m

An airplane propeller is rotating at 1900 rpm (rev/min).

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We have to convert to angular velocity in rads-1 as follows;

Angular velocity in rad/s = 2π/60 × 1900 rpm = 199 rad/s

Given that

angular velocity =angle turned /time taken

Time taken = angle turned/angular velocity

Converting 35° to radians we have;

35 × π/180 = 0.61 radians

Time taken = 0.61 radians/199 rad/s

Time taken = 0.0031 seconds
