Answer:

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 15 × 3

We have the final answer as

The electric motor of a model train accelerates the train from rest to 0.685 m/s in 21.5 ms. The total mass of the train is 875

Natali [406]

Answer:

P=9.58 W

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, and assuming friction force as zero:

$F_m=m.a\\F_m=0.875kg*a$

The acceleration is given by:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}\\a=\frac{0.685m/s}{21.5*10^{-3}s}\\\\a=31.9m/s^2$

So the force exerted by the motor is:

$F_m=0.875kg*31.9m/s^2\\F_m=27.9N$

The work done by the motor is given by:

$W_m=F_m*d\\\\d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=\frac{1}{2}*31.9m/s^2*(21.5*10^{-3}s)^2\\\\d=7.37*10^{-3}m$

$W_m=27.9N*7.37*10^{-3}m\\W_m=0.206J$

And finally, the power is given by:

$P=\frac{W_m}{t}\\P=\frac{0.206J}{21.5*10^{-3}s}\\\\P=9.58W$

Help wit these questions someone.

romanna [79]

In series circuit, Req = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ···

In parallel circuit, $\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} + \frac{1}{R3} +...$

total resistance in the upper branch = R₂ + R₃ = R₂ + 2

$\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}$

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{R2+2} +\frac{1}{6}$

R₂ + 2 = 12

R₂ = 10Ω

$\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}$

$\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{2+1} + \frac{1}{4}$

Req = 1.7Ω

A model rocket is launched directly upward at a speed of 16 meters per second from a height of 2 meters. The function f(t)=−4.9t

Crank

Answer:

$Hmax=15.06$ meters

Explanation:The question ask for the maximum value of the function f(t) which can be find by find the maxima of the function

The maxima of the function occurs when the slope is zero. i.e.

$\frac{df}{dt} =0\\\frac{df}{dt} =\frac{d}{dt} (-4.9t^2+16t+2)\\\frac{df}{dt} =-4.9*2t+16\\-9.8t+16=0\\t=16/9.8\\t=1.63 secs$

Hence the maxima occurs at t=1.63 seconds

The maximum value of f is

$f(1.63)=-4.9(1.63^2)+16(1.63)+2\\f(1.63)=15.06\\$

hence maximum height is found to be

$Hmax=15.06$ meters

You should check your battery ___________.

podryga [215]

One should check the battery every week.

A battery if not maintained properly can cause it to die earlier or get damaged. The reasons why should the battery be checked regularly is that due to improper management of the battery and also the weather conditions, the battery usually gets corroded easily and the battery won't be able to work properly.

The connections must be checked properly so that the battery gets charged properly and should not die while driving.
