Answer:
a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²
b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s
Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s
Distance, S = 172m
a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;
We would use the third equation of motion;
V² = U² + 2aS
Substituting into the formula
29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172
858.49 = 210.25 + 344a
344a = 858.49 - 210.25
344a = 648.24
a = 648.24/344
Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²
b. To find the time;
We would use the first equation of motion;
V = U + at
29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t
1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5
1.88t = 14.8
Time, t = 14.8/1.88
Time, t = 7.87 seconds.
Answer:
The ratio of the diameter of iron to Cu is;

Explanation:
R=(ρL)/A
- R is resistance,
- L is length,
- A is area,
- ρ is resistivity
- d is diameter
from the question the two materials have the same resistance per unit length.

for iron =
for copper
This means we can equate ρ/A for both materials.

re-arranging the equation we have,





Able to conduct electricity
Answer:
d = 69 .57 meter
Explanation:
First case
Speed of car ( v ) = 20.5 mi/h = 9.164 M/S
distance ( d ) = 11.6 meter ( m = mass of the car )
Work done = 0.5 m v² = 0.5 * 9.164² * m J = 41.99 m J
Force = ( workdone /distance ) = ( 41.99 m / 11.6 ) = 3.619 m N
Second case
v = 50.2 mi/h = 22.44135 m/s
d = ?
Work done = 0.5 * 22.44² * m J = 251.7768 * m J
Since the braking force remains the same .
3.619 m = ( 251.7768 m / d )
d = 69 .57 meter
