Answer:

  1.114 kg/m³

Explanation:

The total mass of the air in the balloon and the balloon + cargo will be the mass of the displaced air. If d is the density of the air in the balloon, then we have ...

  2910d +308 = 2910×1.22

Solving for d, we find ...

  2910d = 2919(1.22) -308

  d = 1.22 -308/2910

  d ≈ 1.114 . . . kg/m³

The density of the hot air is about 1.114 kg/m³.

Ms. Garcia’s car can go from rest to 25 m/s in 10 seconds. The car’s velocity changes at a uniform rate. How far does the car tr
vampirchik [111]

We will use this equation:

s = 1/2*a*t^2 + v0*t + s0

where:

s = space traveled

a = acceleration

t = time

v0 = initial speed

s0 = initial space

In this case::

v0 = 0

s0 = 0

So our equation will look like that now:

s = 1/2 * a * t^2

let's calculate the acceleration first of all:

a = (vf - vi) / t

where vf is the final speed and vi is the initial speed. t is the time.

a = (25m/s) / 10s = 2.5 m/s^2

Now we can calculate the space:

s = 1/2 * (2.5 m/s^2) * (10s)^2 = 125m

Hope it was helpful! Have a great day.

Two steamrollers begin 100 m apart and head toward each other, each at a constant speed of 1.00 m/s . At the same instant, a fly
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The fly travels 2.4 m

Explanation:

Since the Two steamrollers begin 100 m apart and head toward each other, each at a constant speed of 1.00 m/s, we can find the time until they crash by the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

Time = Distance /Speed

Time = (100 m) / (1 m/s)

Time = 100 hours

Now, the fly will spend the same amount of time traveling as the steamrollers.

Since the fly moves at a speed of 2.4 m/s and we have a time of one hour the steamroller take to collide, then the fly will go a distance of;

Distance = speed x time = 2.4 × 1 = 2.4 m

To lift a load of 100 kg a distance of 1 m an effort of 25 kg must be applied over an inclined plane of length 4 m. What must be
Troyanec [42]
Using conservation of energy law:-
∑ work in = ∑ work out
and work= force* displacement 
so when we wanted to move a 100kg a distance of 1m 
we multiplied 100*1 = work out
so work in should be equal to 100*g Joules, where g is the acceleration due to gravity.
so workout = 100*g = 25*g *x (divide both sides by 25*g)
x=4m 

by the same way:-
------------------------
work in = 100kg * 2m * g (m/s^2)= work out
so work out = 25*x*g = 200* g (divide both sides by 25*g)
x=8m
