A cart travels down a ramp at an average speed of 5.00 centimeters/second. What is the speed of the cart in miles/hour? To solve this problem we have set the conversion values to determine the product during the conversion process. 
1. 1 centimeter = 0.00000621371 mile 
2. 1 hour = 60 minutes 3. 1 minute = 60 seconds
Thus, we shall have
1. 5 cm x 0.00000621371 mile/1cm = 0.000031069 mi
2. 0.000031069 seconds x 1 hr / 3600 = 0.111846815 miles / hr

A 7300 kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.20 m/s2 and feels no appreci

Simora [160]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall first calculate the velocity at height h = 575 m .

acceleration a = 2.2 m /s²

v² = u² + 2 a s

u is initial velocity , v is final velocity , s is height achieved

v² = 0 + 2 x 2.2 x 575

v = 50.3 m /s

After 575 m , rocket moves under free fall so g will act on it downwards

If it travels further by height H

from the relation

v² = u² - 2 g H

v = 0 , u = 50.3 m /s

H = ?

0 = 50.3² - 2 x 9.8 H

H = 129.08 m

Total height attained by rocket

= 575 + 129.08

= 704.08 m .

S Problem Set 2.) 6.4 x 109 nm to cm

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$6.4\cdot 10^2 cm$

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert from nanometres to metres, keeping in mind that

$1 nm = 10^{-9} m$

So we have:

$6.4\cdot 10^9 nm \cdot 10^{-9} m/nm = 6.4 m$

Now we can convert from metres to centimetres, keeping in mind that

$1 m = 10^2 cm$

So, we find:

$6.4 m \cdot 10^2 cm/m = 6.4\cdot 10^2 cm$

When you whisper you produce a 10-dB sound.

masha68 [24]

All you would do is for a, 10 times 2 is 20 so it would be 20-dB
For b, 10 times 4 is 40 so it would be 40-dB
For c, 10 times 8 is 80 so it would be 80-dB

A boy standing throws a penny horizontally at 7.25 m/s out of the window of his apparent buliding. If the window is 10.0 m above

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a 2D problem (parabolic) so we have to think that way. We have to split up the problem into its 2 dimensions to solve it. Think "y-stuff" and "x-stuff".

In the y-stuff category:

v₀ = 0 (initial upwards velocity is 0 since we are told the penny is thrown horizontally)

Δx = -10.0 m (this displacement is negative because the penny lands 10.0 m below the point from which it was thrown)

a = -9.8 m/s/s

t = ? (we need to find the time in this dimension so we can use it in the x dimension to find the displacement, our unknown)

In the "x-stuff" category:

v₀ = 7.25 m/s (this is given)

Δx = ???

a = 0 (acceleration in this dimension is ALWAYS 0)

t = (we will solve for this in the y-dimension and plug it in here).

In the y dimension:

Δx = v₀t + $\frac{1}{2}at^2$ and plugging in from the y-dimension info:

$-10.0=0t+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2$ which simplifies to

$-10.0=-4.9t^2$ so

$t=\sqrt{\frac{-10.0}{-4.9} }$ which, to 2 significant digits is

t = 1.4 seconds

Now we will do the same in the x-dimension, using t = 1.4:

Δx = v₀t + $\frac{1}{2}at^2$ and filling in the x-stuff:

Δx = $7.25(1.4)+\frac{1}{2}(0)(1.4)^2$ Notice that the stuff after the + sign goes to 0 cuz of the multiplication of 0, so what we are left with is another form of the d = rt equation:

Δx = 7.25(1.4) + 0 so

Δx = 1.0 × 10¹ m (That's rounded correctly to 2 sig dig's: 10 m from the base of the building).
