Answer:

a = 2.44 m/s²

Explanation:

The Net force acting on the car downwards the plane will be equal to the component of the weight that is parallel to the plane.

Thus;

mg(sin θ) = ma

Thus;. g(sin θ) = a

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

θ = 14.4°

Thus;

9.81 × sin 14.4 = a

a = 2.44 m/s²

The outer planets are similar to the planet Earth; they just happen to be farther away from the Sun.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The inner planets are called terrestrial planets due to the surfaces are solid (similar to Earth)-made up of heavy metals, either have no moons or few moons.

The outer planets are called Jovian planets or gas giants because they are encased in gas. They all have rings with plenty of moons.

A body travel according to the law x(t)=2t+3t3 calculate the accelaration of body at t=2s

faust18 [17]

Answer:

28m/s

Explanation:

Given law,

⇒ x(t) = 2t + 3t³

Where, t = 2s

Then,

⇒ x(2) = 2(2) + 3(2)³

⇒ 4 + 3(8)

⇒ 4 + 24

⇒ 28 m/s

Acceleration is 28m/s

Two vehicles approach an intersection: a truck moving eastbound at 16.0 m/s and an SUV moving southbound at 20.0 m/s. Suppose th

mario62 [17]

Answer:25.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given

truck is moving eastbound with a velocity of 16 m/s

Velocity of truck $v_t=16\hat{i}$

SUV is moving south with a velocity of 20 m/s

Velocity of SUV in vector form $v_s=-20\hat{j}$

Velocity of truck relative to the SUV

$v_{ts}=v_{t}-v_s$

$v_{ts}=16\hat{i}-(-20\hat{j})$

Magnitude of relative velocity is

$|v_{ts}|=\sqrt{16^2+20^2}$

$|v_{ts}|=25.61\ m/s$
