frutty [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A conversion factor is an expression for the relationship between units that is used to change the units of a measured quantity without changing the value. A conversion ratio (or unit factor) always equals one (1), where the numerator and the denominator have the same value expressed in different units.

A car is traveling clockwise around a circular racetrack of radius 1440m. When the car is at the northernmost point of the circl
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

East

Explanation:

In circular motion, the velocity of the object will always be tangential to the radius of the circle. In this case, since the car is at the northernmost point of the circular track, then it must be moving right or towards the east, no matter what the acceleration might be at that very moment or what the radius of the track is. If it's moving clockwise, then it moves right (towards the east).

Anton [14]

Answer:

1.7 hours

Explanation:

Time taken in the journey = 3 hours

Distance of the entire journey = 197 miles

Distance travelled on train = x

Distance travelled on bus = 197-x

Average speed of train = 70 mph

Average speed of bus = 60 mph

Time = Distance / Speed

\frac{x}{70}+\frac{197-x}{60}=3\\\Rightarrow \frac{6x+1379-7x}{420}=3\\\Rightarrow -x+1379=3\times 420\\\Rightarrow -x=1260-1379\\\Rightarrow x=119\ miles

Distance travelled by train = 119 miles

Time taken on train = 119 / 70 = 1.7 hours

Manuel spent 1.7 hours on the​ train

Janet jumps horizontally off a high diving platform with a velocity of 2.63 m/s and lands in the water 1.9 s later. How high is
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The height of the platform is 22.686 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of Janet, u = 2.63 m/s

time of her motion, t = 1.9 s

The height of the platform is given by;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

substitute the given values and solve for height "h"

h = (2.63 x 1.9) + ¹/₂(9.8)(1.9)²

h = 4.997 + 17.689

h = 22.686 m

Therefore, the height of the platform is 22.686 m.
