Solve for acceleration:

<em>a</em> = (21.4 m/s - 33.8 m/s) / (4.7 s)

<em>a</em> ≈ -2.6 m/s²

Solve for force:

<em>F</em> = (1400 kg) <em>a</em> ≈ -3700 N

The minus sign tells you the force points in the opposite direction of the car's motion. Its magnitude is always positive, so <em>F</em> = 3700 N.

spotlight on a boat is 2.5 m above the water, and the light strikes the water at a point that is 8.0 m horizontally displaced fr
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let i be the angle of incidence and r be the angle of refraction .

From the figure

Tan ( 90 - i ) = 2.5 / 8

cot i = 2.5 / 8

Tan i = 8 / 2.5 = 3.2

i = 72.65°

From snell's law

sini / sin r = refractive index

sin 72.65 / sinr = 1.333

sin r = .9545  / 1.333

= .72

r = 46⁰

From the figure

Tan r  = d / 4

Tan 46 = d /4

d = 4 x Tan 46

= 4 x 1.0355

=4.14 m .

Answer:

PAPER CLIPS ON NOSE OF A PAPER AIRPLANE

Purpose: To determine if the number of paperclips on the nose of a paper airplane affects the velocity and speed, measured in meters per seconds.

Make a Hypothesis Based on the Learning Thus Far: If the number of paperclips on the nose of a paper airplane increases, then the speed will _increase______ (increase, decrease, stay the same) in a __linear_______ (linear, exponential, logarithmic) mathematical relationship, and the velocity will (increase, decrease, stay the same) in a __exponential____ (linear, exponential, logarithmic) mathematical relationship. (Fill in the appropriate words for your hypothesis.)

Pictures: Insert at least 3 pictures of yourself conducting the experiment into this lab report. At least 2 pictures must show your face as you conduct the investigation. You may need to ask someone to help take these photos.

B) What are the only two sources of energy that produce all the energy we use on Earth? What form
Zina [86]

Answer:

Solar and nuclear power generate more than 99 percent of our civilization's energy. Every other important source of energy is a combination of these two. The majority of them are solar in nature. We discharge previously collected solar energy when we burn wood.

and

Nuclear energy, fossil energy (oil, coal, and natural gas), and renewable energy (wind, solar, geothermal, and hydropower) are all examples of primary energy sources.

If two people lift identical stacks of books the same distance and one person does the job twice as fast, which of the following
Doss [256]

Answer:

Power

Explanation:

Power is defined as the rate of doing work with reference to the time spent and the formula is force multiplied by velocity.

In this case, if two people lift identical stacks of books the same distance and one person does the job twice as fast, then it means the velocity in the case is doubled which will also lead to an increase in the Power .
