While traveling along a highway, a driver slows from 27 m/s to 13 m/s in 11 seconds. What is the automobile’s acceleration?

Answer:

a=-1.27\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial speed of a driver, u = 27 m/s

Final speed of the driver, v = 13 m/s

Time, t = 11 s

We need to find the automobile's acceleration. We know that the acceleration of an object is equal to the change in speed divided by time taken.

a=\dfrac{13-27}{11}\\\\a=-1.27\ m/s^2

So, the magnitude of automobile's acceleration is 1.27\ m/s^2.

Answer:

(1) The orbits are ellipses, with focal points ƒ1 and ƒ2 for the first planet and ƒ1 and ƒ3 for the second planet. The Sun is placed in focal point ƒ1.

(2) The two shaded sectors A1 and A2 have the same surface area and the time for planet 1 to cover segment A1 is equal to the time to cover segment A2.

(3) The total orbit times for planet 1 and planet 2 have a ratio a13/2 : a23/2

two forces x and y are acting at 120 degrees to each other, if the magnitude are 8N and 10N respectively determine their resulta
Ber [7]

The resultant force of both forces is 15.62 N.

<h3 /><h3>What is resultant?</h3>

The Resultant of forces is a single force obtained when two or more forces are combined.

To calculate the resultant of the force, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • R = √[a²+b²-2abcos∅]..................... Equation 1

Where:

  • R = Resultant of the forces.
  • ∅ = Angle between both forces

From the question,

Given:

  • a = 8 N
  • b = 10 N

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • R = √[8²+10²-2×8×10cos120°]
  • R = √[64+100-160cos120°]
  • R =√ [164-160(-0.5)]
  • R = √[164+80]
  • R = √(244)
  • R = 15.62 N

Hence, the resultant force of both forces is 15.62 N.

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

F = 104.832 N

Explanation:

given,

upward acceleration of the lift = 1.90 m/s²

mass of box containing new computer = 28 kg.

coefficient of friction = 0.32

magnitude of force = ?

box is moving at constant speed hence acceleration will be zero.

Now force acting due to lift moving upward =

               F = μ m ( g + a )

               F = 0.32 × 28 × ( 9.8 + 1.9 )

              F = 104.832 N

hence, the force applied should be equal to 104.832 N
