Answer:

his acceleration rate is -0.00186 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial position of the car, x₀ = 100 miles = 160, 900 m ( 1 mile = 1609 m)

time of motion, t₀ = 60 minutes = 60 mins x 60 s = 3,600 s

final position of the car, x₁ = 150 miles = 241,350 m

time of motion, t₁ = 100 minutes = 100 mins x 60 s = 6,000 s

The initial velocity is calculated as;

u = 160, 900 m / 3,600 s

u = 44.694 m/s

The final velocity is calculated as;

v = 241,350 m / 6,000 s

v = 40.225 m/s

The acceleration is calculated as;

a = \frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t} = \frac{v- u}{t_1 - t_ 0} = \frac{40.225  - 44.694}{6000-3600} = -0.00186 \ m/s^2\\\\

Therefore, his acceleration rate is -0.00186 m/s²

suppose a vacuum cleaner use 120 j of electrical energy. If 45 j are used to pull air into the vacuum cleaner, how efficient is
Mice21 [21]
It depends on how much time 45 j will go, so if you told me that it went through 45 j per minute it will go through for 2 minutes so not efficient unless it went through 45 j per hour then it is efficient.

A tire 0.500 m in radius rotates at a constant rate of 200 rev/min. Find the speed and acceleration of a small stone lodged in t
arsen [322]

Answer:

v = 10.47 m/s

a = 219.32 m/s²

Explanation:

The velocity of the stone can be given by the following formula:

v = r ω

where,

v = linear velocity of the stone = ?

r = radius of tire = 0.5 m

ω = angular velocity = (200 rev/min)(2π rad/1 rev)(1 min/60 s) = 20.94 rad/s

Therefore,

v = (0.5 m)(20.94 rad/s)

<u>v = 10.47 m/s</u>

<u></u>

The acceleration of the stone will be equal to the centripetal acceleration. Therefore,

a = v²/r

a = (10.47 m/s)²/0.5 m

<u>a = 219.32 m/s²</u>
