Answer:

negative acceleration of 4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 66m/s

Final velocity = 26m/s

Time taken = 10s

Unknown:

Description of the acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

acceleration = $\frac{v - u}{t}$

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

Now insert the parameters and solve;

Acceleration = $\frac{26 - 66}{10}$ = -4m/s²

So, we see a negative acceleration of 4m/s²

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

F = 6666.7 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a chip, m = 0.1 mg

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, $v=4\times 10^{3}\ m/s$

Time of collision, $t=6\times 10^{-8}\ s$

We know that,

Force, F = ma

Put all the values,

$F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.1\times 10^{-6}\times (4\times 10^3-0)}{6\times 10^{-8}}\\\\F=6666.7\ N$

So, the required force is 6666.7 N.

A conical container of radius 6 ft and height 24 ft is filled to a height of 19 ft of a liquid weighing 64.4 lb divided by ft cu

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Part (i) work required to pump the contents to the rim is 281,913.733 lb.ft

Part (ii) work required to pump the liquid to a level of 5ft above the cone's rim is 426,484.878 lb.ft

Explanation:

The center of mass of a uniform solid right circular cone of height h lies on the axis of symmetry at a distance of h/4 from the base and 3h/4 from the top.

Center mass of the liquid Z = (24-19)ft + 19/4 = 5ft + 4.75ft = 9.75 ft

Mass of liquid in the cone = volume × density (ρ) = ¹/₃.π.r².h.ρ

where;

r is the radius of the liquid surface = [6*(19/24)]ft = 4.75ft

ρ is the density of liquid = 64.4 lb/ft³

h is the height of the liquid = 19 ft

Mass of liquid in the cone = ¹/₃ × π × (4.75)² × 19 × 64.4 = 28,914.229 lbs

Part (i) work required to pump the contents to the rim

Work required = 28,914.229 lbs × 9.75 ft = 281,913.733 lb.ft

Part (ii) work required to pump the liquid to a level of 5 ft above the cone's rim

Extra work required = 28,914.229 lb × 5ft = 144571.145 lb.ft

Total work required = (281,913.733 + 144571.145) lb.ft

= 426,484.878 lb.ft

To wait until the oncoming vehicle passes before completing a left turn is known as:

Reika [66]

Answer:

Risk rejection

Explanation:

There are several factors that contribute to the degree of driving risks and they include but not limited to the ability of the driver and the condition of a vehicle. Other factors are condition of the environment and the condition of the highway. When driving, a driver may wait until an oncoming vehicle passes before making a complete left turn as a risk rejection strategy. Left turns are more dangerous when making them because drivers tend to accelerate on to a left turn. The wider radius of a left turn is know to led to higher speeds and greater pedestrian exposure. A driver is advised to have more mental and physical efforts when making a left turn.
