Answer:

The answer is:

VA= 33 m/S

VB= 27.8 m/s

VC= 50 m/s

VD=66.7 m/s

VE=35.7 m/s

So, the Legs from the highest velocity to the lower are:

D - C - E - A - B

The explanation:

we are going to use the velocity formula:

Velocity = distance (m) / time (s)

So,

A) when D = 18 Km = 18000 m

and t = 9 min = 9*60 =540 s

So V = 18000m/ 540 S

      = 33 m/S

B) when D = 25 Km = 25000 m

and t = 15 min = 15 * 60 = 900 S

So V = 25000m / 900S

     = 27.8 m/s

C) when D = 24 Km = 24000 m

and t = 8 min = 8 * 60 = 480 s

So V = 24000m / 480s

     = 50 m/s

D) when D = 48 Km = 48000 m

and t = 12 min = 12 * 60 = 720 s

So V = 48000 m / 720s

       =66.7 m/s

E) when D = 15 km = 15000m

and t = 7 min = 7 * 60 = 420 s

So V = 15000m / 420s

      = 35.7 m/s

What’s the answer to 12
Schach [20]

Speed is v = d/t

Or speed is distance over time

So...

40min / 60min = 0.6667 or 2/3 --> Finding what proportion 40 minutes is to an hour or 60 minutes as we need the units of hours to match up

45km/h = d/0.6667h

d = (45)(0.667)

d = 30.0015 or 30km

A 0.400-kg object is swung in a circular path and in a vertical plane on a 0.500-m-length string. If the angular speed at the bo
Talja [164]

Answer:

T = 16.72 N

Explanation:

When the object is swung in a circular path, and in a vertical plane, there are two forces external to the object acting on it at any time: the gravity (which is always downward) and the tension in the string (which always points towards the center of the circle).

At the bottom of the circle, the tension is directly upward, so these two forces, are opposite each other, and the difference between them is the centripetal force , which at this point, keeps the object swinging in a circle.

This is the point of the trajectory where T is maximum.

We can apply Newton's 2nd Law, choosing an axis vertical (y-axis) being the upward direction the positive one, as follows:

T- m*g = m*a

The acceleration, at the bottom of the circle, is only normal (as there are no forces in the horizontal direction) , and is equal to the centripetal acceleration, as follows:

ac =  v² / r = ω²*r⇒ T- m*g = m*ω²*r

Replacing by the givens, we can solve for T as follows:

T = m* (ω²*r+g) = 0.4 kg*((8.00)² rad/sec²*0.5m)+9.8 m/s²) = 16.72 N

Does mechanical advantage have units? Explain your answer.
motikmotik

Answer:

The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the load (the resistance overcome by a machine) to the effort (the force applied). For an ideal (without friction) mechanism, it is also equal to: There is no unit for mechanical advantages since the unit for both input and output forces cancel out.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

That is a very broad question. One thing that does not seem to be considered is the depletion of the ozone layer at high altitudes.

In the 1960's chlorofluorcarbons (CFC,s) became popular as refrigerants, spray can propellants, etc.  In January 1989 the Montreal Protocol was passed which has greatly reduced the use of these substances. However, it may be several decades before the ozone layer can be replaced and again absorb harmful ulraviolet rays that may be partly responsible for the increase in global warming.  

(One chlorine atom at high altitudes can be responsible for the destruction of 100,000 molecules of ozone - catalytic reaction)
