Equal the tension of the line to the force needed to stop (deselerate) the mass from a speed of 9.2 ft/s to 0 in 4.4 inches.

Start converting all the information to the SI.

mass, m = 19 lb * [1kg/2.2046lb] = 8.618 kg

speed: 9.2 ft/s * .3048m/ft = .2.80 m/s

distance to stop: 4.4 in * [2.54cm/in]*[1m/100cm] = 0.11176 m

constant acceleration => Vf^2 = Vo^2 - 2ad

Vf = 0 => a= V0^2 / 2d = [2.80m/s]^2 / (2*0.11176m) = 35.1 m/s^2

Use the second Law of Newton

Net force = m*a = 8.618 kg * 35.1 m/s^2 = 302.5 N

Answer: 302.5 N

The ____ of a position-time graph represents an object’s velocity.
Marianna [84]

Answer:

The slope of a position-time graph represents an object’s velocity.

Explanation:

In a position-time graph, the values on the x-axis represent the time, while the values on the y-axis represent the position of the object.

Velocity is defined as the ratio between the displacement of an object and the time taken:

v=\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}

However, we can see that this definition corresponds to the slope of the curve in a position-time graph. In fact:

\Delta s, the displacement, corresponds to the difference in position, so the difference between the values on the y-axis: \Delta s=y_2 -y_1

\Delta t, the time interval, corresponds to the difference in times, so the difference between the values on the x-axis: \Delta t= t_2 -t_1=x_2 -x_1

So, the velocity is

v=\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}=\frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}

which corresponds to the slope of the curve.

<span>In physical cosmology, cosmic inflation, cosmological inflation, or just inflation, is a theory of exponential expansion of space in the early universe. The inflationary epoch lasted from 10−36 seconds after the conjectured Big Bang singularity to sometime between 10−33 and 10−32 seconds after the singularity.
I hope this helps!!!

A car travels in a straight line covering a total distance of 90.0 miles in 60.0 minutes. Which one of the following statements
andrezito [222]

Answer:

E) The average velocity of the car is 90.0 miles per hour in the direction of motion.

Explanation:

Given;

distance covered by the car, d = 90 miles

time taken, t = 60 minutes = 1 hour

The average velocity of the car is given by change in displacement per change in time;

V = Δd / Δt

V = \frac{x_f - x_o}{t_f -t_o} = \frac{90-0}{1-0} \\\\V = 90 \ miles/hour

Therefore, the average velocity of the car is 90.0 miles per hour in the direction of motion.
