Hi there!

We must begin by converting km/h to m/s using dimensional analysis:

\frac{62km}{1hr} * \frac{1hr}{3600sec}*\frac{1000m}{1km} = 17.22 m/s

Now, we can use the kinematic equation below to find the required acceleration:

vf² = vi² + 2ad

We can assume the object starts from rest, so:

vf² = 2ad

(17.22)²/(2 · 75) = a

a = 1.978 m/s²

Now, we can begin looking at forces.

For an object moving down a ramp experiencing friction and an applied force, we have the forces:

Fκ  = μMgcosθ  = Force due to kinetic friction

Mgsinθ = Force due to gravity

A = Applied Force

We can write out the summation. Let down the incline be positive.

ΣF = A + Mgsinθ - μMgcosθ

Or:

ma = A + Mgsinθ - μMgcosθ

We can plug in the given values:

22(1.978) = A + 22(9.8sin(5)) - 0.10(22 · 9.8cos(5))

A = 46.203 N

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 8.9 km/s, and that of the longitudinal waves is 5.1 km/s. A se
Brrunno [24]

Answer: The distance is 723.4km

Explanation:

The velocity of the transverse waves is 8.9km/s

The velocity of the longitudinal wave is 5.1 km/s

The transverse one reaches 68 seconds before the longitudinal.

if the distance is X, we know that:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T2

T2 = T1 + 68s

Where T1 and T2 are the time that each wave needs to reach the sesmograph.

We replace the third equation into the second and get:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T1 + 68s

Now, we can replace T1 from the first equation into the second one:

X/(5.1km/s) = X/(9.8km/s) + 68s

Now we can solve it for X and find the distance.

X/(5.1km/s) - X/(9.8km/s) = 68s

X(1/(5.1km/s) - 1/(9.8km/s)) = X*0.094s/km= 68s

X = 68s/0.094s/km = 723.4 km

Analysis of the relationship between the fuel economy​ (mpg) and engine size​ (liters) for 35 models of cars produces the regres
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Gas mileage is 17.29

Explanation:

Given data:

The total number of the model is 35

The total size of the engine is 5 ltr

The regression model is given as

36.44 - 3.829\times engine\ size

From the information given in question we have

Regression equation is : model- mpg = 36.44 - 3.829\times engine\ size

Therefore for engine capacity of 5 liters;

Gas mileage = 36.44 - 3.829\times 5  = 17.29

Gas mileage is 17.29
