A car that is standing still accelerates up a hill with a slope of 6.4% at an average acceleration of 2.93 ft/s^2. The hill is 1

2.42 miles long, and the final velocity of the car is 203 mph. How long does it take for the car to climb to the top of the hill?

Answer:

213 s

Explanation:

Slope is the ratio of change in vertical distance to change in horizontal distance.

Slope = vertical height / horizontal height

Therefore:

6.4% = vertical height / 12.42

vertical height = 6.4% * 12.42

vertical height = 0.8 miles

The distance travelled by the car (s) is:

s² = 0.8² + 12.42²

s² = 154.9

s = 12.45 miles

Acceleration (a) =  2.93 ft/s^2 = 0.00055 mile/s²

initial velocity (u) = 0, final velocity = 203 mph

Using:

s = ut + 0.5at²

12.45 = 0.5(0.00055)t²

t =213 s

Determine the moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere of mass M and radius R about an axis that is tangent to the surface of
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

I = \frac{7}{5}MR^2

Explanation:

For answer this we will use the paralell axis theorem:

I= I_{cm} + Md^2

Where I_{cm} is the moment of inertia of the center of mass, M is the mass of the sphere and d is the distance between the center of mass and the axis for rotate, then:

I = \frac{2}{5}MR^2 +MR^2

I = \frac{7}{5}MR^2

According to most car mechanics, plain water is the best coolant to use in an engine provided the engine is not being exposed to
Gelneren [198K]
Ethylene glycol reduces the cooling efficiency of water because it has a lower heat capacity as compared to water. A substance with low heat capacity would mean that the material only needs a small amount of energy to increase its temperature. So, for ethylene glycol, the heat transfer would be faster decreasing the cooling efficiency.

Odina walked down the hall at school from the cafeteria to the band room, a distance of 100.0m. A class of physics students
Nata [24]

Find distance she traveled:

100m -25m = 75m


58 seconds / 2 second intervals = 29

29 x 2.6m = 75.4 meters total.


if the distance wasn’t rounded the statement was False.

In any vector space au=bu implies a=b ? Trou or False​
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

(I guess if it were written "properly" it would be ax=bx implies a=b).

Given the axioms we were given, it would seem that the statement should be true, no?

A related statement -- also listed as false -- is that "in any vector space, ax=ay implies that x=y." Again, given the axioms we have.
