Explanation:

Given:

v_0 = 28.0\:\text{ft/s}

v = 50.0\:\text{ft/s}

t = 7.40\:\text{s}

First, we calculate the acceleration of the car during this time:

v = v_0 + at \Rightarrow a = \dfrac{v - v_0}{t}

Plugging in the given values, we get

a = \dfrac{50.0\:\text{ft/s} - 28.0\:\text{ft/s}}{7.40\:\text{s}} = 2.97\:\text{ft/s}^2

Now that we have the value for the acceleration, we can solve for the distance traveled during the time t:

x = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

\:\:\:\:=(28.0\:\text{ft/s})(7.40\:\text{s})

\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:+ \frac{1}{2}(2.97\:\text{ft/s}^2)(7.40\:\text{s})^2

\:\:\:\:= 289\:\text{ft}

Why would companies want their sunscreen to absorb nearly all of the UV light?
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Sunscreen is like a shield, you would want a better shield to protect you than a weak one so companies try to make their sunscreen better than the rest.

The force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies inversely as the radius of the curve and jointly as the weight of
motikmotik

Explanation:

It is given that, the force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies inversely as the radius of the curve and jointly as the weight of the car and the square of the car's speed such that,

F\propto \dfrac{mgv^2}{r}

F=\dfrac{kmgv^2}{r}

mg is the weight of the car

r is the radius of the curve

v is the speed of the car

Case 1.

F = 640 pounds

Weight of the car, W = mg = 2600 pound

Radius of the curve, r = 650 ft

Speed of the car, v = 40 mph

640=\dfrac{k(2600)(40)^2}{650}

k = 0.1

Case 2.

Radius of the curve, r = 750 ft

Speed of the car, v = 30 mph

F=\dfrac{0.1\times 2600\times (30)^2}{750}

F = 312 N

Hence, this is the required solution.

A man pushing a mop across a floor causes it to undergo two displacements. The first has a magnitude of 146 cm and makes an angl
svetlana [45]

Answer:

B = 191.26 cm

θ = -14.73°

Explanation:

given,

magnitude of the first displacement(A) = 146 cm

at an angle of 124°

resultant magnitude = 137 cm

and angle made with x-axis by the resultant(R) = 32.0°

component of A in X and Y direction

A x = A cos θ  = 146 cos 120° = -73 cm

A y = A sin θ = 146 sin 120° = 126.4 cm

now component of resultant in x and y direction

R x = 137 cos 35°

    = 112.2 cm

R y = 137 sin 35°

     = 78.6 cm

resultant is the sum of two vectors

R = A + B

R x = A x + B x

B x =  112.2 - (-73) = 185.2 cm

B y = R y - A y

B y = 78.6 - 126.4 = -47.8 cm

magnitude of B

B = \sqrt{B_x^2+B_y^2}

B = \sqrt{185.2^2+-47.8^2}

B = 191.26 cm

angle\theta = tan^{-1}\dfrac{-47.8}{185.2}

θ = -14.73°

10. A boat traveling at 9.5 m/s reduces its acceleration at a rate of 2.5 m/s2. What is the final speed of the boat
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.75m/s

Explanation:

using the second equation of motion, the time is calculated.

and with the formula a= (v - u)/t

where a is acceleration but in this case it's deceleration (and should be negated as you solve it ) .

v is final velocity

u is initial velocity

t is time taken
