Answer:

Explanation:

We know that the pressure can be calculated in the following way:

p = d·g·h

with d being the density of the water, g the gravitational acceleration and h the depth.

Also d of the water = 1000 kg/m^3 circa and g = 9.8 m/s^2 circa

117,500 Pa = 1000kg/m³ · 9.8m/s² · h

Therefore h = 11,9 m

A driver entering the outskirts of a city takes her foot off the accelerator so that the car slows down from 90 km/h to 50 km/h

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = (vf - vi) / t

a = (50 - 90) / 10.0

a = -4 km/h/s(1000 m/km / 3600 s/h)

a = - 1.11 m/s²

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.23 2.23 times a second. A tack is stuck in the t

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Angular velocity ( $\omega$ ) = 2.23 rps

Distance from the center (R) = 0.379 m

First, we will convert revolutions per second into radian per second as follows.

= 2.23 revolutions per second

= $2.23 \times 2 \times 3.14 rad/s$

= 14.01 rad/s

Now, tangential speed will be calculated as follows.

Tangential speed, v = $R \times \omega$

= 0.379 x 14.01

= 5.31 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the tack's tangential speed is 5.31 m/s.
