An Indy 500 race car's velocity increases from 4.0 m/s to +36

Physics
1 answer:

Answer:

The average acceleration is 8\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Uniform Acceleration </u>

When an object varies its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

v_f=v_o+a.t

Where:

vf  = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a   = Constant acceleration

t   = Elapsed time

The acceleration can be calculated by solving for a:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

The Indy 500 race car increases its speed from vo=4 m/s to vf=36 m/s in t=4 s. Thus, the average acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{36-4}{4}=8\ m/s^2

The average acceleration is 8\ m/s^2

Calculate the location xcm of the center of mass of the Earth-Moon system. Use a coordinate system in which the center of the Ea
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The center of mass of the Earth-Moon system is 4.673 kilometers away from center of Earth.

Explanation:

Let suppose that planet and satellite can be treated as particles. The masses of Earth and Moon (m_{E}, m_{M}) are 5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg and 7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg, respectively. The distance between centers is 384,403 kilometers. The location of the center of mass can be found by using weighted averages:

\bar x = \frac{x_{E}\cdot m_{E}+x_{M}\cdot m_{M}}{m_{E}+m_{M}}

If x_{E} = 0\,km and x_{M} = 384,403\,km, then:

\bar x = \frac{(0\,km)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)+(384,403\,km)\cdot (7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg)}{5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg+7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg}

\bar x = 4.673\,km

The center of mass of the Earth-Moon system is 4.673 kilometers away from center of Earth.

Ted Williams hits a baseball with an initial velocity of 120 miles per hour (176 ft/s) at an angle of θ = 35 degrees to the hori
lys-0071 [83]

Answer: the maximum heigth of the stadium at ist back wall is 151.32 ft

Explanation:

1. use the position (x) equation in parobolic movement to find the time (t)

565 ft = [frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * cos (35°)  * t

t= 3.92 s

2. use the position (y) equation in parabolic movement to find de maximun heigth  the ball reaches at 565 ft from the home plate.

y= [[frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * sen (35°) * 3.92 s] - \frac{32.2 ft/s^{2} *3.92 s^{2}  }{2}

y= 148.32 ft

3. finally add the 3 ft that exist between the home plate and the ball

148.32 ft + 3 ft = 151.32

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Tech B is correct and Tech A is incorrect.

Explanation:

Here Tech A is wrong because when diagnosing an overheating hydraulic system, it is not necessary to un plugg the oil cooler rather it should be plugged to for proper diagnosis.

Technician B says running the hydraulic system at a lower operating temperature will reduce the possibly of oil oxidation is correct statement because at temperature oil's physical as well as chemical property tend to change.

Hence, Tech B is correct and Tech A is incorrect.

Substances X and Y are both nonpolar. If the volatility of X is higher than that of Y, what is the best explanation?
lesya692 [45]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the last option.  If the volatility of X is higher than that of Y, then  <span>Y’s molecules experience stronger London dispersion forces than X’s molecules. All molecules has london dispersion forces. Also,  the stronger the bond, the harder it is to volatilize. Hope this answers the question.</span>

"a musical tone sounded on a piano has a frequency of 261.6 hz and a wavelength of 1.31 m. what is the speed of the sound wave
Andreyy89
To solve this question, we use the wave equation which is:
C=f*λ
where:
C is the speed;
f is the frequency;
λ is the wavelength
So in this case, plugging in our values in the problem. This will give us:
C = 261.6Hz × 1.31m
= 342.696 m/s is the answer.
