A woman drives 6 miles, accelerating uniformly from rest to 70 mph. How long does it take for her to reach 70 mph?
Morgarella [4.7K]
Using the two kinematic equations that can be used for this problem are:
Vf = Vi + at and d=Vit +(1/2)*at^2
Since Vi (initial velocity) = 0 

The equations can further be simplified where a is the acceleration, t is the time, Vf is the final velocity which is 70 miles per hour and d is 6 miles

Vf = at
70 = at
a = 70/t---equation 1

d=(1/2)*a*(t^2)
6 = (1/2)*a*(t^2) ---equation 2

Substituting equation 1 to equation 2.
6= (1/2)*(70/t)*(t^2)
6= 35t
t= 0.17142 hours or 10.28571 mins or 617.14 sec

Explain how the magnitude of the gravitational force between the earth and the sun changes as the earth moves from position 'A'
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are not told where A and B are, but I'll assume that they are two points on the orbit of earth about the sun.

As that orbit is an ellipse, the two points likely do not have the same distance between the earth and sun.

As gravity varies with the inverse of the square of the distance (F = GMm/d²), the force at the closer distance will be greater than the force at the longer distance.
