Answer:

3.33 seconds

Explanation:

We can use the velocity formula [ v = u + at ] to solve.

Find the value "u".

135km/h -> 135km*1000m/3600s -> 37.5m/s

Find the value "v".

75km/h -> 75km*1000m/3600s -> 20.83m/s

Keep in mind we are dealing with "deceleration" so when we input 5.0m/s into the formula, it will be a negative value.

Now, find "t" which is the value we aren't given with the values we're given in the question.

20.83 = 37.5 - 5t

-16.67 = -5t

3.33 = t

Best of luck!

How are the planets sizes related to their surface gravity
dexar [7]

Answer:

The surface gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the planet

Explanation:

The gravity at the surface of a planet is given by:

g=\frac{GM}{R^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

We see from the formula that the surface gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the radius of the planet, R.

At the Earth's surface, the value of the surface gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s^2.

Three monkeys A, B, and C weighing 20, 26, and 25 lb, respectively, are climbing up and down the rope suspended from D. At the i
Marina86 [1]

Answer:2235.2lb-ft/s^2

Explanation:

Given

Mass of monkey A=20lb

Mass of monkey B=26lb

Mass of monkey C=25lb

acceleration of monkey A=4.2ft/s^2

acceleration of monkey B=0

acceleration of monkey C=-5.4ft/s^2

Force Due to monkey A\left ( F_A\right )=20\times 4.2 =84lb-ft/s^2\left ( downwards\right )

Force Due to monkey A\left ( F_B\right )=26\times 0 =0lb-ft/s^2

Force Due to monkey A\left ( F_C\right )=25\times 5.4 =135 lb-ft/s^2\left ( upward\right )

In addition to it  Weights of monkeys will be acting downwards therefore net Downwards force is balanced by tension

T=\left ( 20+26+25\right )32.2+84-135=2235.2 lb-ft/s^2

Although the class has no water, the students want to know if the cube will float or sink in water. Explain, in detail, the step
Nutka1998 [239]
Okay, so the density of water is 1g/cm3. In order for the cube to float, it has to be less than 1, and it will sink if it is more than 1 g/cm3. Use a triple beam balance to weigh the cube, looking at the metric ruler on the balance. Then, if the cube's density is more than 1, then you know it will float. If the density is less than 1, you know it will sink.
hope this helps, and I didn't know how to use the word "metric ruler"

A racecar is traveling in uniform circular motion around a racetrack. What happens to the centripetal acceleration of the car if
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

4 TIMES

Explanation:

As centripetal acceleration has formula a =v^2/r. as r is constant so a is directly proportional to square of speed so square of 2 is 4 hence 4 times
