Answer:

-10.8m/s^2

Explanation:

a=change in velocity/change in time

-27 m/s/2.5=10.8m/s^2

or if its not negative

27m/s/2.5=10.8m/s^2

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s

Explanation:

The ray of light hitting the ground forms a right angled triangle of height H, which is the height of the building and width, D which is the distance of the tip of the shadow from the building.

Also, the height of the man, h which is parallel to H forms a right-angled triangle of width, L which is the length of the shadow.

By similar triangles,

H/D = h/L

L = hD/H

Also, when the man is 4 m from the building, the length of his shadow is L = D - 4

So, D - 4 = hD/H

H(D - 4) = hD

H = hD/(D - 4)

Since h = 2 m and D = 12 m,

H = 2 m × 12 m/(12 m - 4 m)

H = 24 m²/8 m

H = 3 m

Since L = hD/H

and h and H are constant, differentiating L with respect to time, we have

dL/dt = d(hD/H)/dt

dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H

Now dD/dt = velocity(speed) of man = -1.7 m/s ( negative since he is moving towards the building in the negative x - direction)

Since h = 2 m and H = 3 m,

dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H

dL/dt = 2 m(-1.7 m/s)/3 m

dL/dt = -3.4/3 m/s

dL/dt = -1.13 m/s

So, the length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s

On a vacation flight, you look out the window of the jet and wonder about the forces exerted on the window. Suppose the air outs

user100 [1]

Answer:

A) $\Delta P = 14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa$

B) F = 1632.65 N

Explanation:

Given details

outside air speed is given as $v_2 = 150 m/s$

since inside air is atmospheric , $v_1 = 0 m/s$

a) By using bernoulli equation between outside and inside of flight

$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho gh = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho gh$

$\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2$

$\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho[ v_2^2 -v_1^2]$

$\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} 1.29 [ 150^2 - 0^2]$

$\Delta P = 14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa$

b) force exerted on window

Area of window $= 25\times 45 = 1125 cm^2 = 0.1125 m^2$

We know that force is given as

$F = P\times A$

$F = 14512.5 \times 0.1125$

F = 1632.65 N

In traveling a distance of 2.5 km between points A and D, a car is driven at 99 km/h from A to B for t seconds and 48 km/h from

Andreyy89

Answer:

d = 1.954 Km

Explanation:

given,

total distance, D = 2.5 Km

in stretch A to B =

speed = 99 Km/h = 99 x 0.278 = 27.22 m/s time =t

in stretch B to C

time = 3.4 s

In stretch C to D

speed = 48 Km/h = 48 x 0.278 = 13.34 m/s time =t

we know,

distance = speed x time

distance of BC

using equation of motion

v = u + a t

27.22 = 13.34 - a x 3.4

a = 4.08 m/s²

uniform deceleration is equal to 4.08 m/s²

distance traveled in BC

$s = ut + \dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

$s = 13.34\times 3.4 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4.08 \times 3.4^2$

s = 68.94 m

$3000 = 99 \times \dfrac{1000\ t}{3600}+ 68.94 + 48\times \dfrac{1000\ t}{3600}$

3000 = 27.5 t + 68.94 + 13.33 t

40.83 t = 2931.06

t = 71.79 s

distance travel in AB

distance = s x t

d = 27.22 x 71.79

d = 1954 m

d = 1.954 Km

distance between A and B is equal to 1.954 Km.
