Answer:

a = -1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Vi = 75 m/s

Vf = 25 m/s

t = 50 s

Plug those values into the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at

25 = 75 + 50a

---> a = -1 m/s^2

A car travels up a hill at a constant speed of 38 km/h and returns down the hill at a constant speed of 66 km/h. Calculate the a

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Average speed will be 48.23 km/h

Explanation:

Let the distance up to hill is = d km

Speed when car goes to hill = 38 km/h

So time required $t=\frac{distance}{speed}=\frac{d}{38}hour$

Speed when car return from hill = 66 km/h

So time required to return fro hill $t=\frac{d}{66}h$

Total time $t_{total}=\frac{t}{38}+\frac{t}{66}$

Total distance = d+d =2d

So average speed $=\frac{total\ distance}{total\ time}=\frac{2d}{\frac{d}{38}+\frac{d}{66}}=48.23km/h$

3. Describe the flow of one molecule of water through the water cycle, beginning in the ocean.

scZoUnD [109]

molecules of water are never destroyed - they go through various uses in a cycle of re-use. beginning in the ocean. a water molecue is attached to the wet suit of a deep sea diver. when the diver gets back on his boat, the water molecule leaves the ocean. Diver dry his suit under the sun. The water molecule is evaporated to the air. It meets up with more water molecules to form cloud. Cloud becomes rain over ground. Rain drains into stream which merges into river. River runs out to the ocean and the water cycle starts anew.

Rank in order, from smallest to largest, the six torques (torque 1 to torque 2) about the hinge.?

anzhelika [568]

The solution for this problem is:torque1 = torque2 = FL / 2
Torque 3 = Torque 4 = FL / 2 * sin (theta)
Torque 5 = 2 FL
Torque 6 = 0

So the order of the torques from smallest to largest is torque 6, (torque 3 and 4), (torque 1 and 2), torque 5.

Remember or just take note that sin (theta) < 1 is why 3 and 4 are less than 1 and 2.
