A sports car accelerates at a constant rate from rest to a speed of 90 km/hr in 8 s. What is its acceleration?

1 answer:

3 0

First convert 90km/hr to m/s.

Initiate velocity = 0m/s (car was at rest)

Final velocity is 25m/s (90km/hr converted)

25m/s - 0m/s / 8s = 3.125 m/s^s

Therefore the answer is option A (3.13m/s^2)

A student needs to use the metric system while measuring the length of a box. Which units should he use?

Andrews [41]

It depends on the size of the box.

-- If it's one of the boxes printed on a sheet of graph paper,
then he should report the measurement in millimeters.

-- If it's the box that his new smartphone arrived in, then
he should probably use centimeters.

-- If it's the box that the new tractor was shipped to his
grandfather's farm in, then meters is the best unit.

The dimensions of a cylinder are changing, but the height is always equal to the diameter of the base of the cylinder. If the he

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

dV/dt = 9 cubic inches per second

Explanation:

Let the height of the cylinder is h

Diameter of cylinder = height of the cylinder = h

Radius of cylinder, r = h/2

dh/dt = 3 inches /s

Volume of cylinder is given by

$V = \pi r^{2}h$

put r = h/2 so,

$V = \pi \frac{h^{3}}{4}$

Differentiate both sides with respect to t.

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{3h^{2}}{4}\times \frac{dh}{dt}$

Substitute the values, h = 2 inches, dh/dt = 3 inches / s

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{3\times 2\times 2}{4}\times 3$

dV/dt = 9 cubic inches per second

Thus, the volume of cylinder increases by the rate of 9 cubic inches per second.
