Answer:

12.8 meters

Explanation:

m/s means meters per second. So, to find how far it would travel in 3.2 seconds, you would multiply 4 meters every second by 3.2 seconds.

4×3.2=12.8 meters

A truck, initially at rest, rolls down a frictionless hill and attains a speed of 20 m/s at the bottom. To achieve a speed of 40

Crank

Answer:

To achieve the velocity of 40 m/sec height will become 4 times

Explanation:

We have given initially truck is at rest and attains a speed of 20 m/sec

Let the mass of the truck is m

At the top of the hill potential energy is mgh and kinetic energy is $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

So total energy at the top of the hill $=mgh+0=mgh$

At the bottom of the hill kinetic energy is equal to $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ and potential energy will be 0

So total energy at the bottom of the hill is equal to $0+\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Form energy conservation $mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$ , for v = 20 m/sec

$20=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times h}$

Squaring both side

$19.6h=400$

h = 20.408 m

Now if velocity is 0 m/sec

$40=\sqrt{2gh}$

$19.6h=1600$

h = 81.63 m

So we can see that to achieve the velocity of 40 m/sec height will become 4 times

chris and molly wins $2400 in a competition they share the money in the ratio2:3 how much money do they each receive ?

nlexa [21]

Answer:

chris gets 960 and molly gets 1440

Explanation:

add the ratio up and divide

2+3=5

2400/5=480

480x2=960

480x3=1440

960+1440= 2400

The largest salami in the world, made in Norway, was more than 20 m long. If a hungry mouse ran around the salami’s circumferenc

Musya8 [376]

Answer: 0.09 m

Explanation:

Centripetal acceleration in terms of tangential speed is:

$a_c=\frac{v^2_t}{r}$

where r is the radius.

It is given that,

centripetal acceleration of the mouse, $a_c=0.29 m/s^2$

tangential speed , $v_t=0.17m/s$

Radius of salami is:

$r =\frac{(0.17m/s)^2}{0.29 m/s^2}=0.09m$

Thus, the radius of the salami is 0.09 m.
