6 mph/s


Calculating acceleration involves dividing velocity by time — or in terms of SI units, dividing the meter per second [m/s] by the second [s]. Dividing distance by time twice is the same as dividing distance by the square of time. Thus the SI unit of acceleration is the meter per second squared .

Find the work w1 done on the block by the force of magnitude f1 = 75.0 n as the block moves from xi = -1.00 cm to xf = 3.00 cm .
MissTica
<span>The work done is 3.0 Nm. We can us the equation Work = Force * Distance, where Force = 75.0 N, and distance is xf – xi = 3.00 cm - -1.00 cm = 4.00 cm. Convert centimeters to meters by moving the decimal place to the left by two places to get 0.04 m. Plug these values into the Work equation: Work = Force * Distance Work = 75.0 N * 0.04 m Work = 3.0 Nm</span>

What distance is covered by an airplane traveling at a velocity of 660 miles per hour in 3.5 hours?
N76 [4]

As per the question, the velocity of the airplane [v] = 660 miles per hour.

The total time taken by airplane [t] = 3.5 hours.

We are asked to determine the total distance travelled by the airplane during that period.

The distance covered [ S] by a body is the product of velocity with the time.

Mathematically distance covered = velocity × total time

                                                      S = v × t

                                                        = 660 miles/hour ×3.5 hours

                                                        = 2310 miles.

Hence, the total distance travelled by the airplane in 3.5 hour is 2310 miles.

A student carried out an experiment adding different weights to a spring and recording the results. Look at the table of results
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

0.25 m.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring.

From the diagram, we shall used any of the weight with the corresponding extention to determine the spring constant. This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 0.1 N

Extention (e) = 0.125 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

0.1 = K x 0.125

Divide both side by 0.125

K = 0.1/0.125

K = 0.8 N/m

Therefore, the force constant, K of spring is 0.8 N/m

Now, we can obtain the number in gap 1 in the diagram above as follow:

Force (F) = 0.2 N

Spring constant (K) = 0.8 N/m

Extention (e) =..?

F = Ke

0.2 = 0.8 x e

Divide both side by 0.8

e = 0.2/0.8

e = 0.25 m

Therefore, the number that will complete gap 1is 0.25 m.
