What is the speed of a horse in meters per second that runs a distance of 1.2 miles in 2.4 minutes

1 answer:

4 0

Time t=2.4 minutes=2.4×60=144 seconds
distance s=1.2 miles=1.2×1609=1930.8 meters
speed v=s/t=1930.8÷144=[tex] \frac{1930.8}{144} = \frac{160.9}{12} =[/13.408m/s ~nearly]

Compute the power output (watts) during one minute of treadmill exercise, given the following: Treadmill grade-10% Horizontal sp

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

c. 981 watts

$P=981\ W$

Explanation:

Given:

horizontal speed of treadmill, $v=100\ m.min^{-1}=\frac{5}{3} \ m.s^{-1}$

weight carried, $w=588.6\ N$

grade of the treadmill, $G\%=10\%$

<u>Now the power can be given by:</u>

$P=v.w$

$P=588.6\times\frac{5}{3}$ (where grade is the rise of the front edge per 100 m of the horizontal length)

$P=981\ W$

A bullet is fired through a wooden board with a thickness of 9.0 cm. The bullet hits the board perpendicular to it, and with a s

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

-387883.3 m/s²

0.000286168546055 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 370 m/s

v = Final velocity = 259 m/s

s = Displacement = 9 cm

a = Acceleration

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{259^2-370^2}{2\times 9\times 10^{-2}}\\\Rightarrow a=-387883.3\ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the bullet is -387883.3 m/s²

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{259-370}{-387883.3}\\\Rightarrow t=0.000286168546055\ s$

The time taken is 0.000286168546055 seconds
