. By mistake, 1000.0 cm^3 of oil was dumped into a pond with a surface area of 850.0 m². The density of the oil was 0.850 g/cm².

How thick was the resulting oil slick? Remember to use significant figures and scientific notation.​

Answer:

First, convert 850.0 m^2 to cm^2 to match the volume of oil. It would come out to 8,500,000 cm^2. Now set up V=lwh (length times width times height). You are looking for thickness, which is height.

1000.0cm^3 = (8.500*10^6 cm^2)(h)

1000.0/(8.500*10^6) = h

Explanation: I hope this help :)

A plane is flying east at 115 m/s. The wind accelerates it at 2.88 m/s^2 directly northwest. After 25.0s, what is the magnitude
kondaur [170]

Answer:

81.8 m/s

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the plane is:

v_0=115 m/s (toward east)

So, decomposing along the x- and y- directions:

v_{x0} = 115 m/s\\v_{y0} = 0

(we took east as positive x-direction and north as positive y-direction)

The acceleration is

a=2.88 m/s^2 (northwest, so the angle with the positive x-direction is 135 degrees)

Decomposing it along the two directions:

a_x = a cos 135^{\circ} = (2.88 m/s^2)(cos 135^{\circ})=-2.04 m/s^2\\a_y = a sin 135^{\circ} = (2.88 m/s^2)(sin 135^{\circ})=2.04 m/s^2

So the two components of the velocity after a time t = 25.0 s will be

v_x = v_{x0} + a_x t = 115 m/s + (-2.04 m/s^2)(25.0 s)=64 m/s\\v_y = v_{y0} + a_y t = 0 m/s + (2.04 m/s^2)(25.0 s)=51 m/s

So, the magnitude of the velocity of the plane will be

v=\sqrt[v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(64 m/s)^2+(51 m/s)^2}=81.8 m/s

What is the mechanical energy of a 500kg rollercoaster car moving with a speed of 3m/s at the top hill that is 30m high
koban [17]

K.E = 1/2*m*v^2 = 1/2(500)(3)^2 = 2250 J

m*g*h = 500(9.8)(30) = 147000 J

2250 + 147000 = 149250

Given that the arc length is:
s = ∫ √[1² + (dy/dx)²] dx 

<span>So arc length between the two points is then: </span>
<span>s = 2*20sinh(x/20)
   = 40sinh(x/20) </span>

<span>The straight distance between the two points is : d = 2x </span>
<span>So, x = d/2.
         = 40/2
         = 20 m </span>

<span>Plug this into the arc length equation to get:
s = 40sinh[20/20)]
   =40* ½ (e - 1/e) </span>
<span>   = 47 m</span>
