For 1983 through 1989, the per capita consumption

Physics

Tresset [83]4 years ago

Answer:

y = 43.55 + 2.15t

Explanation:

We were told that in 1983, the per capita consumption was 37.1 pounds, and in 1989 it was 50 pounds.

If we assume t = 0 corresponds to year 1980. Then, for 1983 it will be t = 3 and for 1989,it will be t = 9.

Thus, expressing the information as ordered pairs, we have; (3,37. 1) and (9,50).

Let us now find slope of the linear function:

m1 = (y2 - y1)/(t2 - t1)

m1 = (50 - 37.1)/(9 - 3)

m1 = 2.15

So, we can find the linear equation as;

y - 37.1 = 2.15(t - 3)

y = 37.1 + 2.15t - 6.45

y = 43.55 + 2.15t

a particle that has a mass of 2.5 kg is moving in the positive X-direction with a constant velocity of 1.6m/s. Suddenly a consta
malfutka [58]
The particle has a constant horizontal velocity, and a vertical force won't affect the horizontal speed, so it should be fairly easy to find the last part, "the time taken for a 10m horizontal displacement," using a kinematic equation.
X = x + vt + (1/2)at²
10 = 0 + (1.6)t + (1/2)(0)t²
10/1.6 = t
t = 6.25s

So now we have to find the vertical displacement over 6.25 seconds on a particle of a 2.5kg mass with a force of 8N.
Start with Newton's second law.
F = ma
8 = (2.5)a
a = 3.2m/s²

Now, use kinematics again.
Y = y + vt + (1/2)at²
Y = 0 + (0)(6.25) + (1/2)(3.2)(6.25)²
Y = <u>62.5m</u>

Jake drags a sled of mass 25 kg across the snow. The sled is attached to a rope that pulls with a force of 50 N at an angle of 3
madam [21]

Answer:

218.5 N

Explanation:

In order for the sled to be in equilibrium along the vertical direction, the forces acting along this direction must be balanced. So the equilibrium equation is:

N+F sin \theta - mg =0

where

N is the normal force

F = 50 N is the force that pulls the sled

\theta is the angle between the force and the horizontal, so

F sin \theta is the component of F acting along the vertical direction

(mg) is the weight of the sled, with

m = 25 kg being the mass of the sled

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

Solving the formula for N, we find

N=mg-F sin \theta = (25 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)-(50 N)sin 32^{\circ}=218.5 N

The net charge of 3 mol of protons is
sveticcg [70]
The charge of 1 mole of proton is equivalent to 1.60217656x10^-19 coulombs. This is also called an elementary charge. Multiply that by 3 to get the net charge of three moles of protons.

Charge of 3 mol protons = 3 x 1.60217656x10^-19 = 4.81x10^-19 coloumbs

So the answer is <span>c) 4.81×10 −19 C</span>
