A car travels on a straight, level road. (a) Starting from rest, the car is going 38 ft/s (26 mi/h) at the end of 4.0 s. What is

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

$a)9.5\frac{ft}{s^2}\\ b) 12.66\frac{ft}{s^2}$

Explanation:

A body has acceleration when there is a change in the velocity vector, either in magnitude or direction. In this case we only have a change in magnitude. The average acceleration represents the speed variation that takes place in a given time interval.

$a_{avg}=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\\a_{avg}=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t_{f}- t_{i}}\\a_{avg}=\frac{38\frac{ft}{s}-0}{4 s- 0}=9.5\frac{ft}{s^2}\\$

$a_{avg}=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}\\a_{avg}=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t_{f}- t_{i}}\\a_{avg}=\frac{76\frac{ft}{s}-38\frac{ft}{s}}{7 s- 4s}\\a_{avg}=\frac{38\frac{ft}{s}}{3s}=12.66\frac{ft}{s^2}$

Which has more momentum, a speeding baseball or an ocean liner at rest in a harbor?

uranmaximum [27]

Momentum is (mass) times (speed), so nothing that is at rest has any momentum. If the battleship is at rest, then a mosquito in flight, a leaf falling from a tree, and your speedy baseball each have more momentum than the ship has.

The balance between incoming solar energy and out going energy radiated into space is called...

marin [14]

Based on the physics principle of conservation of energy, this radiation budget represents the accounting of the balance between incoming radiation, which is almost entirely solar radiation, and outgoing radiation, which is partly reflected solar radiation and partly radiation emitted from the Earth system, including the atmosphere.

An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 3.10 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 6.10 m

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

10.93m/s with the assumption that the water in the lake is still (the water has a speed of zero)

Explanation:

The velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water surface is equal to the resultant velocity between the fish and the water when it hits it.

The fish drops on the water surface vertically with a vertical velocity v. Nothing was said about the velocity of the water, hence we can safely assume that the velocity if the water in the lake is zero, meaning that it is still. Therefore the relative velocity becomes equal to the velocity v with which the fish strikes the water surface.

We use the first equation of motion for a free-falling body to obtain v as follows;

v = u + gt....................(1)

where g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s/s

It should also be noted that the horizontal and vertical components of the motion are independent of each other, hence we take u = 0 as the fish falls vertically.

To obtain t, we use the second equation of motion as stated;

$h=ut+gt^2/2.................(2)$
