Answer:

<u>77.8 m/s, downward</u>

Explanation:

For uniform acceleration motion, the average speed is equal to half the soum of the initial velocity, Vi, and the final velocity, Vf

Average speed = (Vf + Vi)/2

Also, by definition, the average speed is the distance divided by the time:

Average speed = distance / time

Then:

(Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

Other kinematic equation for uniform acceleration is:

Vf = Vi + a×t

Since the window is falling and the air resistance is ignored, a = g (gravitational acceleration ≈ 9.8m/s²)

Replacing the known values we can set a system of two equations:

From (Vf + Vi)/2 = 300m/6.62s

(Vf + Vi) = 2 × 300m/6.62s

Vf + Vi = 90.634 equation 1

From Vf = Vi + a×t

Vf - Vi = 9.8 (6.62)

Vf - Vi = 64.876 equation 2

Adding the two equations:

2Vf = 155.510

Vf = 77.8 m/s downward (velocities must be reported with their directions)

An inattentive driver is traveling 18.0 m/s when he notices a red light ahead. his car is capable of decelerating at a rate of 3

ryzh [129]

Speed of the car given initially

v = 18 m/s

deceleration of the car after applying brakes will be

a = 3.35 m/s^2

Reaction time of the driver = 0.200 s

Now when he see the red light distance covered by the till he start pressing the brakes

$d_1 = v* t$

$d_1 = 18* 0.200 = 3.6 m$

Now after applying brakes the distance covered by the car before it stops is given by kinematics equation

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s$

here

vi = 18 m/s

vf = 0

a = - 3.35

so now we will have

$0^2 - 18^2 = 2*(-3.35)(s)$

$s = 48.35 m$

So total distance after which car will stop is

$d = d_1 + d_2$

$d = 48.35 + 3.6 = 51.95 m$

So car will not stop before the intersection as it is at distance 20 m

Amanda spent 2/5 of her time after school doing homework and ¼ of her remaining time riding her bike. If she rode her bike for 4

Doss [256]

Answer:120 min

Explanation:

Given

Amanda spent $\frac{2}{5}$ of her time after school doing Home work

And $\frac{1}{4}$ of her remaining time riding her bike

It is given that she rode her bike for 45 minutes in a week

Let t be the time after school

therefore Amanda spend $\frac{2t}{5}$ in home work and $\frac{3t}{5}$ time is left

From remaining $\frac{3t}{5}$ time she spends $\frac{1}{4}$ time riding her bike

therefore $\frac{3t}{5}\times \frac{1}{4}=45$

thus $t=300 min$

therefore time spent on home work is $\frac{2}{5}\times 300=120 min$
