Answer:

$ 57,272.73

Explanation:

Create a lengthy equation to convert the units you are given to the units you need to answer the question.

Your starting with gallons and pounds and you need your answer to be in Dollars.

$ 12.00         1 kg          7.0 lb       1500 gal

------------ X ----------- X ------------ X -------------- =  $ 57,272.73

   1 kg           2.2 lb        1 gal              1

A particle is moving with velocity v(t) = t2 _ 9t + 18 with distance, s measured in meters, left or right of zero, and t measure
Alex787 [66]
V = t^2 - 9t + 18

position, s
s = t^3 /3 - 4.5t^2 +18t + C

       t = 0, s = 1 => 1=C => s = t^3/3 -4.5t^2 + 18t + 1

Average velocity: distance / time

   distance: t = 8 => s = 8^3 / 3 - 4.5 (8)^2 + 18(8) + 1 = 27.67 m
   Average velocity = 27.67 / 8 = 3.46 m/s

t = 5 s

     v = t^2 - 9t + 18 = 5^2 - 9(5) + 18 = -2 m/s
     speed = |-2| m/s = 2 m/s
 
Moving right
     V > 0 => t^2 - 9t + 18 > 0
     (t - 6)(t - 3) > 0

     => t > 6 and t > 3 => t > 6 s => Interval (6,8)

    => t < 6 and t <3 => t <3 s => interval (0,3)

    

Going faster and slowing dowm

acceleration, a = v' = 2t - 9
     a > 0 => 2t - 9 > 0 => 2t > 9 => t > 4.5 s
     Then, going faster in the interval (4.5 , 8) and slowing down in (0, 4.5)

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE

The parking brake on a 1000 kg Cadillac has failed, and it is rolling slowly, at 1 mph , toward a group of small children. Seein
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

0.5 mph in the opposite direction

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of Cadillac = 1000 kg

v_1 = Velocity of Cadillac = 1 mph

m_2 = Mass of Volkswagen = 2000 kg

v_2 = Velocity of Volkswagen

In order to know the speed the system must have the momentum exchange

As the linear momentum of the system is conserved

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=0\\\Rightarrow v_2=-\dfrac{m_1v_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\dfrac{1000\times 1}{2000}\\\Rightarrow v_2=-0.5\ mph

The speed of the impact is given by 0.5 mph in the opposite direction

Your friend just challenged you to a race through an obstacle course. You know in order to beat him, you must run 30 meters with
seropon [69]

Answer:

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South (A)

Explanation:

You need to determine the average rate of velocity.  

The equation you will use is velocity = displacement/time

The displacement is 30m South.

The time is 60 seconds.

Plug into the equation  Velocity = 30m South/60 s

Velocity = 0.5 m/s South
