-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.
-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.
-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s
-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s
= <span> 3,600 meters .</span>
___________________________________
The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for
distance covered when accelerating from rest:
Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²
= (1/2) · (8 m/s²) · (30 sec)²
= (4 m/s²) · (900 sec²)
= 3600 meters.

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.
When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds.
How does he do that ?
By accelerating at 8 m/s². That's about 0.82 G !
He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph !
He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.
Answer: C Plane
Explanation: According to Newton's law, gravitational force is proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.
Gravitational force depends on mass. The bigger the mass, the more the magnitude of the gravitational force. Since plane is assume to have the highest mass in the options, we can therefore conclude that plane will experience the highest gravitational force.
Answer:
a) <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>
b) <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>
c) <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>
d) <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Intensity of the light = 2500 W/m^2
speed of light <u> </u>= 3 x 10^8 m/s
a) we know that the pressure for for a totally absorbing surface is given as
= = 2500/(3 x 10^8) = <em>8.33 x 10^-6 Pa</em>
b) 1 atm = 101325 Pa
= (8.33 x 10^-6)/101325 = <em>8.23 x 10^-11 atm</em>
c) for a totally reflecting surface
= = twice the value for totally absorbing
= 2 x 8.33 x 10^-6 = <em>1.67 x 10^-5 Pa</em>
d) 1 atm = 101325 Pa
= 2 x 8.23 x 10^-11 = <em>1.65 x 10^-10 atm</em>
Answer:
sound intensity is explained by the following formula I= P/A where I= sound intensity(W/m²),P=power(W),A= area(m²) I hope this helps good luck!
Answer:
v= 4055.08m/s
Explanation:
This is a problem that must be addressed through the laws of classical mechanics that concern Potential Gravitational Energy.
We know for definition that,
We must find the highest point and the lowest point to identify the change in energy, so
Point a)
The problem tells us that an object is dropped at a distance of h = 1.15134R over the earth.
That is to say that the energy of that object is equal to,
Point B )
We now use the average radius distance from the earth.
Then,
By the law of conservation of energy we know that,
clearing v,
Therefore the speed of the object when it strikes the Earth’s surface is 4055.08m/s
