552000 in scientific notation
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
5.52 × 10 to the 5th power (100000)  . In scientific notation you need to have a decimal numver times 10 to the power of something so you can divide 552000 by 10  5  times. So in order to get 552000 you need to have 10 to the 4th power and 5.52

Dragsters can actually reach a top speed of 145.0 m/s in only 4.45 s. (a) Calculate the average acceleration for such a dragster
astraxan [27]

Answer:

a) 32.58 m/s²

b) 161.84 m/s

Explanation:

Initial velocity = u = 0

Final velocity = v = 145 m/s

Time taken = t = 4.45 s

s = Displacement of dragster = 402 m

a = Acceleration

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{145-0}{4.45}\\\Rightarrow a=32.58\ m/s^2

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as-u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 32.58\times 402-0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=161.84\ m/s

The final velocity is greater than the velocity used to find the average acceleration due to the gear changes. The first gear in a dragster has the most amount of toque which means the acceleration will be maximum. The final gears have less torque which means the acceleration is lower here. The final gears have less acceleration but can spin faster which makes the dragster able to reach higher speeds but slowly.

You see a lightning bolt flash in the distant sky. You hear the corresponding thunder 6.8 seconds later. If the temperature is 2
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Distance = 2.4\ km

Explanation:

Given

Time (t) = 6.8s

Temperature = 28C

Required

Determine the distance at which the lighting struck

First, we need to determine the speed at which the lighting struck because the peed of sound varies with temperature.

At about 28C, the speed of sound is 346m/s

So, we have the following:

Speed = 346m/s

Time = 6.8s

Distance is calculated as thus:

Distance = Speed * Time

Distance = 346m/s * 6.8s

Distance = 2352.8

Divide by 1000 to get distance equivalent in kilometers

Distance = \frac{2352.8km}{1000}

Distance = 2.3528km

Distance = 2.4\ km ---- Approximated
