Many Amtrak trains can travel at a top speed of 42.0 m/s. Assuming a train maintains that speed for several hours, how many kilo

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

605 km

Explanation:

Hello

the same units of measure should be used, then

Step 1

convert 42 m/s ⇒ km/h

1 km =1000 m

1 h = 36000 sec

$42 \frac{m}{s}*\frac{1\ km}{1000\ m}=0.042\ \frac{km}{s}\\ 0.042\ \frac{km}{s}\\$

$0.042\ \frac{km}{s}*\frac{3600\ s}{1\ h} =151.2 \frac{km}{h}\\ \\Velocity =151.2\ \frac{km}{h}$

Step 2

find kilometers traveled after 4 hours

$V=\frac{s}{t}\\ \\$

V,velocity

s, distance traveled

t. time

now, isolating s

$V=\frac{s}{t} \\s=V * t\\$

and replacing

$s=V * t\\s=151.2\frac{km}{h}*4 hours\\ s=604.8 km\\$

S=604.8 Km

Have a great day

A 1-kg rock is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meterstick at the 0-cm mark so that the meterstick barely balances like a

tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass if the rock, m = 1 kg

It is suspended from the tip of a horizontal meter stick at the 0-cm mark so that the meter stick barely balances like a seesaw when its fulcrum is at the 12.5-cm mark.

We need to find the mass of the meter stick. The force acting by the stone is

F = 1 × 9.8 = 9.8 N

Let W be the weight of the meter stick. If the net torque is zero on the stick then the stick does not move and it remains in equilibrium condition. So, taking torque about the pivot.

$9.8\times 12.5=W\times (50-12.5)\\\\W=\dfrac{9.8\times 12.5}{37.5}$

W = 3.266 N

The mass of the meters stick is :

$m=\dfrac{W}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{3.266}{9.81}\\\\m=0.333\ kg$

So, the mass of the meter stick is 0.333 kg.

A Boeing 747 ""Jumbo Jet"" has a length of 59.7 m. The runway on which the plane lands intersects another runway. The width of t

Reika [66]

Answer:

1.7 seconds

Explanation:

To clear the intersection, the total distance to be covered = 59.7 + 25 =84.7m

first we need to find the initial speed to just enter the intersection by using the third equation of motion

v^2 - u^2 = 2*a*s

45^2 - u^2 = 2 * -5.7 * 84.7

u^2 = 45^2 +965.58

u^2 = 2990.58

u = 54.7 m/s

Now for time we apply the first equation of motion

v-u =a * t

t = (v-u)/a = (45 - 54.7)/-5.7 = 1.7seconds
