In 1990, Dave Campos of the United States rode a special motorcycle called the Easyrider at an average speed of 518 km/h. Suppos

e that at some point Campos steadily decreases his speed from 100.0 percent to 60.0 percent of his average speed during an interval of 2.00 min. What is the distance traveled during that time interval?​

The distance travelled during the given time can be found out by using the equations of motion.

The distance traveled during the time interval is "13810.8 m".

First, we will find the deceleration of the motorcycle by using the first <em>equation of motion</em>:

v_f=v_it+at\\\\

where,

vi = initial velocity = (518 km/h)(\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s})(\frac{1000\ m}{1\ km}) = 143.89 m/s

vf = final veocity = 60 % of 143.89 m/s = (0.6)(143.89 m/s) = 86.33 m/s

a = deceleration = ?

t =time interval = 2 min = 120 s

Therefore,

86.33\ m/s = 143.89\ m/s + a(120\ s)\\\\a = \frac{86.33\ m/s - 143.89\ m/s}{120\ s}

a = -0.48 m/s²

Now, we will use the second <em>equation of motion </em>to find out the distance traveled (s):

s = v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\s = (143.89\ m/s)(120\ s)+\frac{1}{2}(-0.48\ m/s^2)(120\ s)^2\\\\s = 17266.8\ m - 3456\ m

<u>s = 13810.8 m = 13.81 km</u>

A student sects a leaf of length 7.2 cm to draw. Her drawing is 28.8 cm in length. What is the magnification of the drawing?
Alina [70]

Answer:

A) x4

Explanation:

Magnification is equal to image size divided by the actual size, or M = I/A.

The image size is the student's drawing, which is 28.8 cm, and the actual size is 7.2 cm. Divide them, and cancel out the units, and you should get:

28.8 cm/7.2 cm = 4
