A hockey puck slides 55.0 m along the length of the rink in just 1.25 s. The slight friction between the puck and the ice provid

es a uniform acceleration. If the puck's final speed is 43.2 m/s, what is its initial speed? 31.4 m/s?​

Answer:

44.8 m/s

Explanation:

Use the Initial Speed Formula:

InS = 2(d/t) - Final Speed

InS = 2(55/1,25) - 43.2

InS = 2.44 - 43,2

InS = 88 - 43,2

InS = 44.8 m/s

Air conditioners sold in the United States are given a seasonal energy-efficiency ratio (SEER) rating that consumers can use to
amid [387]

Answer:

112.58

Explanation:

The Coefficient of Performance of any system is denoted by COP=Q/W, where Q is the useful heat supplied or removed and W is the work required by the system. According to the first law of thermoddynamics Qh= Qc + W, where Qh is the heat transfered to the hot reservoir and Qc is the heat collected from the cold reservoir. Substituting the values for W and apllying the limitation for maximum theoretical efficiency we end up with the eqution shown below.

The Coefficient of Performance of air conditioner or COP is denoted by

COP(cool) = Tc/(Th- Tc)

where Tc: the lowest temperature

           Th: the highest temperature

converting the values to Kelvin and adding them in the above equation

COP(cool) = (25+273)/((34+273)-(25+273))

                 = 298/(307-298)

                 = 298/9 = 33.11

From the question, it is stated that COP=SEER/3.4

hence, SEER= COP * 3.4

SEER= 33.11 * 3.4 = 112.58

You’re speeding at 85 km/hr when you notice that you’re only 10 m behind the car in front of you,
solmaris [256]
Your position in meters will, measured relative to the starting point of the car behind you, be 
x1(t) = 10 + 23.61 t - 1/2 4.2 t^2 
his position will be 
x2(t) = 16.67 t 
Hence at any time the separation s(t) will be 
s(t) = x1(t) - x2(t) = 10 + 6.94 t -2.1 t^2 
Now I assume you mean that you will decelerate UNTIl you are driving at the legal speed limit (60 km/h). That will take you: 
16.67 m/s = 23.61m/s - 4.2 m/s^2 * t 
t = 1.65 seconds 
What is the separation at that time? If it is still greater than zero, there will be no collision: 
s(1.65) = 10 + 6.94 *1.65 -2.1 (1.65)^2 = 15.73 meters. 
Hence you will NOT collide. The 1.65 s you calculated was the time needed to brake to the speed of 60 km/h.

1. Potential energy and a roller coaster. A 1000-kg roller coaster car moves from point A to B then C.
zalisa [80]

Answer:(a) With our choice for the zero level for potential energy of the car-Earth system when the car is at point B ,

          U

B

​

=0

When the car is at point A, the potential energy of the car-Earth system is given by

          U

A

​

=mgy

where y is the vertical height above zero level. With 135ft=41.1m, this height is found as:

y=(41.1m)sin40.0

0

=26.4m

Thus,

U

A

​

=(1000kg)(9.80m/s

2

)(26.4m)=2.59∗10

J

The change in potential energy of the car-Earth system as the car moves from A to B is

U

B

​

−U

A

​

=0−2.59∗10

5

J=−2.59∗10

5

J

(b) With our choice of the zero configuration for the potential energy of the car-Earth system when the car is at point A, we have U

A

​

=0. The potential energy of the system when the car is at point B is given by U

B

​

=mgy, where y is the vertical distance of point B below point A. In part (a), we found the magnitude of this distance to be 26.5m. Because this distance is now below the zero reference level, it is a negative number.

Thus,
