Sue from Burkey and Keith from Baron will meet in 2 minutes

Answer: Option b

<u>Explanation:</u>

Time taken can be calculated when distance and the speeds are given. Here speeds of Keith and Sue are given. So, we have to find the relative speeds in order to calculate the time taken.

When two objects travel in same direction the relative speed will be the difference between speeds. Similarly when two objects travel in opposite direction, the relative speed will be the sum of given speeds.

Given:

Speed of Sue from Burkey is 6 km/hr and speed of Keith from Baron is 3 km/hr.

The distance between Burkey and Baron is 300 m.

From the formula, d=s \times t

where d is distance,s is speed and t is time

It can be derived that, t=\frac{d}{s}

s = sum of given speeds = 3 km/hr + 6 km/hr = 9 km/hr

d = 300 m = 0.3 km \text {Time }=\frac{0.3 \mathrm{km}}{9 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{hr}}=\frac{1}{30} h r=2 \text { minutes }

Suppose a car is traveling at +20.3 m/s, and the driver sees a traffic light turn red. After 0.207 s has elapsed (the reaction t
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

33.6371 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 20.3 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration = -7 m/s²

Distance traveled in the 0.207 seconds

Distance = Speed × Time

⇒Distance = 20.3×0.207 = 4.2021 m

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-20.3^2}{2\times -7}\\\Rightarrow s=29.435\ m

Distance traveled by the car while braking is 29.435 m

Total distance measured from the point where the driver first notices the red light is 29.435+4.2021 = 33.6371 m

Absolute differences between each observed mass and the accepted value,divided by the accepted value, multiplied by 100%
timama [110]

Answer:

The percentage error    e% = Δm/m 100    

Explanation:

The absolute error is the assessment with which measurements are made, it is given by the minimum reading value of a given instrument.

The accepted value is the value measured in an instrument. Or the one calculated by an experiment.

The percentage error is the ratio of the absolute error between the value of the average per 100

      e% = Δm/m 100

Answer:

a=40\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a shuttlecock, u = 30 m/s

Final speed of the shuttlecock, v = 10 m/s

Time, t = 0.5 s

We need to find its average acceleration. The acceleration of an object is equal to the change in speed divided by time taken. It is given by :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{10-30}{0.5}\\\\a=-40\ m/s^2

So, the average acceleration of badminton shuttlecock is 40\ m/s^2.
