11. A roller coaster car is moving slowly up a long ramp to the very top of the roller coaster. It goes over the top and starts

down a steep slope and it picks up speed rapidly as it rolls down an almost vertical slope. Four seconds later, at the bottom of the steep slope, its velocity is 28 m/s. The average acceleration during those 4 seconds was 6 m/s2 . What was the initial velocity of the roller coaster car as it started down the slope?

Answer:

a = (v2 - v1) / t

a t = v2 - v1

v1 = v2 - a t

v1 = 28 m/s - 6 m/s^2 * 4 s = 4 m/s

The velocity of the wind relative to the water is crucial to sailboats. Suppose a sailboat is in an ocean current that has a vel
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall write the velocities given in vector form to make the solution easy.

The velocity of water with respect to earth that is waV(e) makes 30 degree with north or 60 degree with east so in vector form

waV(e) = 2.2 cos 60 i + 2.2 sin 60 j

waV(e) = 1.1 i + 1.9 j

Similarly , velocity of wind with respect to earth that is wiV(e) , is making 50 degree with west or - ve of x axes so we cal write it in vector form as follows

wiV(e) =  - 4.5 cos 50 i - 4.5 sin 50 j

wiV(e) = - 2.89 i - 3.45 j

Now we have to calculate velocity of wind with respect to water that is

wiVwa

wiV( wa) = wiV ( e)+ eV(wa)

=  wiV( e)- waV(e)

- 2.89 i - 3.45 j - 1.1 i -  1.9 j

= - 3.99 i - 5.35 j

Magnitude of this relative velocity

D² = 3.99² + 5.35²

d = 6.67 m /s

Add the following forces: 20 Newtons south, 30 newtons north, 40 newtons east, and 50 newtons west
Roman55 [17]

The north and south forces have no effect on the east and west forces.
We can handle the two groups separately.

                       (20N south)  +  (30N north)

                   =  (20N south)  +  (20N north + 10N north)

                   =                              10N north .


                       (40N east)  +  (50N west)

                   =  (40N east)  +  (40N west + 10N west)

                   =                              10N west .

Answer and will mark you as brainliest . (it's that easy)
Nonamiya [84]
Speed is a SCALAR quantity and velocity is a VECTOR quantity.
VECTOR quantities have size and direction.
The two objects on the right have the same MAGNITUDE, but different VELOCITIES because they’re going in different directions.
This is shown by the MINUS sign.
Acceleration is a change in speed, so it is a SCALAR quantity.
Acceleration in the same direction as an object moving in that direction will make that object SPEED UP.
Acceleration in the opposite direction will make an object SLOW DOWN or DECELERATE.
An acceleration of ZERO will not change the velocity of an object.
Hope that helps. :)

"It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat, yet a body can transfer heat to another body. How can a
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Because heat is a path function or the energy in transit.

Explanation:

  • It is not correct to say that a body contains a certain amount of heat because the heat is a path function and not a property of the system. It is the energy in transit which can be encountered only when it crosses the system boundary.
  • Heat is the energy in transit of a matter which flows by the virtue of temperature difference. The heat energy in a body is stored in the form of kinetic energy of the molecules which gets converted into heat that we know as the responsible factor for the rise in temperature usually.

The pencil rotates about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the figure. which of the labeled points is the point that the axi
attashe74 [19]
The labeled points which is Letter B in the given Image is the point that the axis of rotation passes through. This problem is an example of rotational dynamics, formerly an object moves in a straight line then the motion is translational but when an object at inactivity lean towards to continue at inactivity and an object in rotation be possible to continue rotating with continuous angular velocity unless bound by a net external torque to act then is rotational. In a rotational motion, the entity is not treated as a constituent part but is treated in translational motion. It points out with the study of torque that outcomes angular accelerations of the object.
