1 newton is the force needed to accelerate 1 kilogram of mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second² .
1 N = 1 kg-m/s² .
It's a force equal to roughly 3.6 ounces.
Answer: The Porsche Wins. Arrives 19secs earlier before the Honda.
Explanation: The head start of 1secs corresponded with the difference in acceleration {3.5m/s² - 3m/s²}=0.5m/s²
Using the first equation of motion we obtain the velocity which correspond to this acceleration (0.5m/s²) and time of 1secs where initial velocity u = 0
V = u + at
V= 0 + at
V = 0.5 * 1 = 0.5m/s
Now let find the velocity of each of the car.
If V. a
0.5m/s 0.5m/s²
........m/s. 3.5m/s²
Velocity of porche Vp
= (3.5/0.5) * 0.5 = 3.5 m/s
Also if. V. a
0.5m/s. 0.5m/s²
.....m/s. 3 m/s²
Velocity of Honda Vh
= {3/0.5} * 0.5 = 3m/s
So let's find the time t taken by both cars to cover the distance of 400m
Recall,
Velocity = distance/time
Time t = distance/velocity
For Porche, t = 400/3.5 =114.29secs
For Honda, t = 400/3 = 133.33secs
Looking critically, we noticed that Porche car took shorter time.
The difference In time is
= (133.33 - 114.29)secs = 19.04secs
Answer:
This is Newton’s third law (forces due to friction). There would be 15N being pushed back at Jane.
Explanation:
Newton’s third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So if Jane pushed with a force of 15N, 15N would be pushed back at her. Hope this helps! :)
In order to make any headway with this one, it might help
to know how many joules there are in one BTU, ya reckon ?
I went and looked it up on line, you're welcome.
1 BTU = 1055.06 joules .
So if you happen to have 1,152 BTU of energy,
there are 1055.06 joules in each one of them,
and the total is
(1,152 BTU) x (1,055.06 joule/BTU)
= 1,215,429.12 joules .
Scanning the choices for anything close, we notice that choice-'b'
is only about 0.006% less than my answer. So that must be the one
they're fishing for, and they must have used 1055-even for their
conversion factor.
