Answer:
350 ft/s²
Explanation:
First, convert mph to ft/s.
58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s
Given:
v₀ = 85.1 ft/s
v = 0 ft/s
t = 0.24 s
Find: a
v = at + v₀
a = (v − v₀) / t
a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s
a = -354 ft/s²
Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².
The moon is between the sun and earth.
The side where the light from the sun hits the moon is facing away from earth.
We will measure all angles from West, the negative x-axis and divide the journey into 3 parts:
P1 = 370y
P2 = 410cos(45)x + 410sin(45)y = 290x + 290y
P3 = 370cos(270 - 28)x + 370sin(270 - 28) = -174x - 327y
Overall displacement:
x = 290 - 174 = 116 m
y = 370 + 290 - 327 = 333 m
displacement = √(116² + 333²)
= 353 m
Direction:
tan(∅) = y/x
∅ = tan⁻¹ (333 / 116)
∅ = 70.8° from West.
Answer:
You will fly forward in the bus until you hit something.
Explanation:
While standing there on the bus, you are traveling at the same speed as the bus. If the bus suddenly stops, you will still be traveling at the same speed you started with. That is until you hit something hard enough or big enough to stop you.
