Explanation:

gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill, which transforms into kinetic energy as he moves bottom of the hill

that's mean potential energy transfoms into kinetic energy

A bicyclist bikes the 90 mi to a city averaging a certain speed. The return trip is made at a speed that is 1 mph slower. Total

Lynna [10]

Answer:

his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

Explanation:

Let say the speed of the bicycle while he moves towards the city is "v"

now the speed of the round trip must be smaller by 1 mph

so its speed for round trip will be

$v_2 = v - 1$

now we know that total time of the motion is 19 hr

so we will have

$t_1 = \frac{90}{v}$

$t_2 = \frac{90}{v - 1}$

so we will have

$t_1 + t_2 = 19 hr$

$\frac{90}{v} + \frac{90}{v-1} = 19$

$90(2v - 1) = 19(v^2 - v)$

$19 v^2 - 199 v + 90 = 0$

by solving above equation we have

$v = 10 mph$

so his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph

I dnt know how to do it

NNADVOKAT [17]

Here's what you need to know about waves:

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

Now ... The question gives you the speed and the frequency,
but they're stated in unusual ways, with complicated numbers.

Frequency: How many each second ?
The thing that's making the waves is vibrating 47 times in 26.9 seconds.
Frequency = (47) / (46.9 s) = 1.747... per second. (1.747... Hz)

Speed: How far a point on a wave travels in 1 second.
The crest of one wave travels 4.16 meters in 13.7 seconds.
Speed = (4.16 m / 13.7 sec) = 0.304... m/s

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

Wavelength = (0.304 m/s) / (1.747 Hz) = 0.174 meter per second

A small, 300 g cart is moving at 1.20 m/s on an air track when it collides with a larger, 2.00 kg cart at rest?

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, $m_1 = 300\ g = 0.3\ kg$

Initial speed of the cart, $u_1=1.2\ m/s$

Mass of the larger cart, $m_2 = 2\ kg$

Initial speed of the larger cart, $u_2=0$

After the collision,

Final speed of the smaller cart, $v_1=-0.81\ m/s$ (as its recolis)

To find,

The speed of the large cart after collision.

Solution,

Let $v_2$ is the speed of the large cart after collision. It can be calculated using conservation of momentum as :

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1=m_2v_2$

$v_2=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1}{m_2}$

$v_2=\dfrac{0.3\times 1.2+0-0.3\times (-0.81)}{2}$

$v_2=0.301\ m/s$

So, the speed of the large cart after collision is 0.301 m/s.

you throw a ball vertically so it leaves the ground withe velocity of 3.71m/s. what is its acceleration at this point

tino4ka555 [31]

No matter what direction you throw it, or with what speed, its acceleration is immediately 9.8 m/s^2 downward as soon as you release it from your hand, and it doesn't change until the ball hits something.
