Actual reason it is where it is strange as it will seem it is because Great Britain is an island. when Earth was being explored in 16 and 1700s British figured out that it would be very helpful to know WHERE YOU ARE at all times, and they hadn't quite figured out how to launch a GPS satellite system just yet

Answer:

Power is 1061.67W

Explanation:

Power=force×distance/time

Power=65×9.8×15/9 assuming gravity=9.8m/s²

Power=3185/3=1061.67W

1. How would you expect an instantaneous acceleration vs. time graph to look for a cart moving with a constant
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

a=0   v = v₀ + a t

a=0    line is horizontal

Explanation:

1, In a graph of acceleration vs. time, we have lines, when the line is horizontal it is zero, when the line has a positive slope the increasing accelerations and when the slope is negative the decreasing acceleration

2, speed and relationship of a car is given by

        v = v₀ + a t

where vo is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and tel time

in this case I will calcograph velocity vs. time the constant acceleration is a straight line.

In general from the graph we can find the initial velocity with the cut at that x and the acceleration of the car with the slope

Two cars are traveling along perpendicular roads, car A at 40 mi/hr, car B at 60 mi/hr. At noon, when car A reaches the intersec
Serggg [28]

Answer:

\frac{dD}{dt} = -4 miles/hour

negative sign indicates that the distance is decreasing with time

Explanation:

Let at any time t after noon that is 12 p.m.  

distance traveled by car A = 40t

distance traveled by car B = 90-60t

then distance between the two cars at time t

D^2= (40t)^2+(90-60t)^2............1

also, at time 1 p.m.

distance D^2= (40\times1)^2+(90-60\times1)^2

D=50 Km

differentiating equation 1 w.r.t. t we get

2D\frac{dD}{dt}= 2\times40t\times40+2(90-60t)(-60)

put t= 1 and D= 50 we get

2\times50\frac{dD}{dt}= 3200\times1-3600\times1

\frac{dD}{dt} = -4 miles/hour
