A carmaker has designed a car that can reach a maximum acceleration of 12 meters/second2. The car’s mass is 1,515 kilograms. Ass

uming the same engine is used, what should the car’s mass be if the carmaker wants to reach an acceleration of 15 meters/second2? Use F = ma.
A 1,212 kg
B 1,335 kg
C1,466 kg
D 1,515 kg
D 1,894 kg

1) 15 / 12 = 1.25 ratio
2) to increase acceleration  1.25 times (with same F, or same engine) you have to lower mass 1.25 times
3) 1515/1.25 = 1212 kg

choose A

A carton is given a push across a horizontal, frictionless surface. The carton has a mass m, the push gives it an initial speed
sammy [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Carbon mass = m

Initial speed = v_i

Coefficient = μk

Based on the above information, the expressions are as follows

a. By using the energy considerations the expression for the carton moving distance is

As we know that

Fd = \frac{1}{2} m (v_i^2- v_f^2)

where,

v_f = 0

F = u_kmg

(\mu_kg) d = \frac{1}{2} m v_i^2

d = \frac{\frac{1}{2}v_i^2}{\mu_kg}

d = \frac{v_i^2}{2 \mu_kg}

b. The initial speed of the carton if the factor of 3 risen, so the expression is

v_i^1 = 3v_i

d^i = \frac{(3v_i^2)}{2\mu_kg}

= \frac{9v_i^2}{2\mu_kg}

d^i = 9(d)

Joaquin mows the lawn at his grandmother’s home during the summer months. Joaquin measured the
nordsb [41]
Velocity is define as how fast an object is moving, and in what direction, it is a vector quantity, meaning velocity has both magnitude and direction. Anything goes to the left is negative, and anything goes to the right is positive.

a. Direction from east to west, given distance 11.5 meters, and time of 7.10 s

V = displacement/time  V = -11.5/7.10 S  V = -1.62 m/s  (going left)

b. Joaquin reaches his original position. Displacement is now zero.

    Velocity of the lawnmower is equal to "zero" but if we calculate for the average speed of the lawn, you just have to add the distance covered and the time it take to go back at the original position or point of origin

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t} which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator.  For us:

a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2} so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)
