Answer:

1700 kg

Explanation:

Let’s use conservation of momentum

32.5 * 388 = 7.42 * mc

mc = 1699.46

mc = 1700 kg

Answer:

the acceleration a^{\to} = (0.0159 \ \ m/s^2 )i

Explanation:

Given that:

the initial speed v₁ = 0 m/s i.e starting from rest ; since the car accelerates at a distance Δx = 6 miles in order to teach that final speed v₂ of 63.15 km/h.

So;  the acceleration for the first 6 miles can be calculated by using the formula:

v₂² = v₁² + 2a (Δx)

Making acceleration  a the subject of the formula in the above expression ; we have:

v₂² - v₁² = 2a (Δx)

a = \dfrac{v_2^2 - v_1^2 }{2 \Delta x}

a = \dfrac{(63.15 \ km/s)^2 - (0 \ m/s)^2 }{2 (6 \ miles)}

a = \dfrac{(17.54 \ m/s)^2 - (0 \ m/s)^2 }{2 (9.65*10^3 \ m)}

a =0.0159 \ m/s^2

Thus;

Assume the car moves in the +x direction;

the acceleration a^{\to} = (0.0159 \ \ m/s^2 )i

Buildings are more dense than the surrounding air. This means that they have more _____ per volume than the air and will stay on
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

<em>mass</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Density is the measure of how much mass of a substance is squeezed into a given volume of that substance. <em>It is the mass per unit volume</em>, and substances with lesser density will float in materials with denser density. Buildings are generally more obviously denser that air, if not we'll see then float upwards into the atmosphere, but that is not the case. Different liquids too can separate and form layers on one another due to their differences in volume.

What can I do to increase range of motion in a joint
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Damian here! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

Stretching is used to improve range-of-motion (ROM) of a joint, but why? The most common reason is that the joint ROM is limited and is somehow affecting performance of a desired activity. Stretching is also used as a preventative measure.

Explanation:hope this helps? :))
