Answer:

a = 52s²

Explanation:

<u>How to find acceleration</u>

Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Acceleration is also a vector quantity, so it includes both magnitude and direction.

<u>Solve</u>

We know initial velocity (u = 16), velocity (v = 120) and acceleration (a = ?)

We first need to solve the velocity equation for time (t):

v = u + at

v - u = at

(v - u)/a = t

Plugging in the known values we get,

t = (v - u)/a

t = (16 m/s - 120 m/s) -2/s2

t = -104 m/s / -2 m/s2

t = 52 s

A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hai

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

900 W.

Explanation:

Given that

Electric heater 1500 W

We know that power P given as

P= V I

So the total power of 120 V and 20 A circuit

P = 120 x 20

P= 2400 W

So the power new load P'

P'= Total system power(P)- Electric heater load

P ' = 2400 - 1500

P'= 900 W

So the answer is 900 W.

A car is driven 225 km west and then 98 km southwest (45).

slava [35]

Sum the vector components: Dx = 225* Cos(180)+ 78*Cos(225)= -280.154 km Dy = 225* Sin(180)+ 78*Sin(225) = -55.154 km displacement: Sqrt(Dx^2+Dy^2) = 285.532 km Arctan(Dy/Dx) = 191.137degrees CCW OR: 11.137 degrees South of West

5. How are electromagnetic waves similar to ocean waves?.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves have crests and troughs similar to those of ocean waves. The distance between crests is the wavelength. The shortest wavelengths are just fractions of the size of an atom, while the longest wavelengths scientists currently study can be larger than the diameter of our planet!

A rocket with a total mass of 330,000 kg when fully loaded burns all 280,000 kg of fuel in 250 s. The engines generate 4.1 MN of

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

6900 m/s

Explanation:

The mass of the rocket is:

m = 330000 − 280000 (t / 250)

m = 330000 − 1120 t

Force is mass times acceleration:

F = ma

a = F / m

a = F / (330000 − 1120 t)

Acceleration is the derivative of velocity:

dv/dt = F / (330000 − 1120 t)

dv = F dt / (330000 − 1120 t)

Multiply both sides by -1120:

-1120 dv = -1120 F dt / (330000 − 1120 t)

Integrate both sides. Assuming the rocket starts at rest:

-1120 (v − 0) = F [ ln(330000 − 1120 t) − ln(330000 − 0) ]

-1120 v = F [ ln(330000 − 1120 t) − ln(330000) ]

1120 v = F [ ln(330000) − ln(330000 − 1120 t) ]

1120 v = F ln(330000 / (330000 − 1120 t))

v = (F / 1120) ln(330000 / (330000 − 1120 t))

Given t = 250 s and F = 4.1×10⁶ N:

v = (4.1×10⁶ / 1120) ln(330000 / (330000 − 1120×250))

v = 6900 m/s
