Can I tell you what makes this problem so hard ?

It's having all the data WITHOUT HAVING THE STORY !

We first have to figure out what all those things are.  I mean, we don't even know what  F  is, what  d  is, what  Kef  or  Vi  is, or how  W  figures in to the whole thing.  You really have no mercy !

If my hunch is correct, the story goes like this:

-- There's an object sailing along, minding its own business, not bothering anybody, and its speed is 7.2 meters per second.

-- Somebody jumps out in front of the object and begins to push back on it with 215 Newtons of force, trying to slow it down and stop it.

-- The object is only able to go another 13 meters, pushing the guy backwards but slowing down, and then it stops.

-- The question is:  What is the mass of the object ?

Now I'll go ahead and solve the problem that I just invented:

-- Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²)

Before anybody touched it, the object's kinetic energy was

KE = (1/2) (mass) (7.2 m/s)²

KE = (25.92) x (mass)

-- Since that's the energy the object had, THAT's how much work the guy has to do in order to make the object stop.

Work = (force) x (distance)

Work = (215 N) x (13 meters)

Work = 2,795 N-m

-- And there you go.  The work the guy did to stop the object is the amount of energy the object had before he came along.

(25.92) x (mass of the object) = 2,795 N-m

Divide each side by 25.92:

Mass of the object = (2,795 N-m) / (25.92)

<em>Mass = 107.83 kilograms</em>

The speed of sound at temperature of________in the air is 360m/s.​
Aleks04 [339]

Vo= 331+0.6T

360=331+0.6T

360-331=0.6T

29=0.6T

0.6T/29

T=6/290 so change it to simplest form and us formulas good luck

trapecia [35]

Answer:

C. Horizontal component of velocity

Explanation:

Object in motion stays in motion,

nothing works against its motion in the horizontal direction, unlike in the vertical direction, gravity pulls object down.

What is 7.4 in it's simplest form?
Iteru [2.4K]
Assuming that you mean to ask <em>. . . "What is 7.4 </em><u><em>as a fraction</em></u><em> in simplest form</em>?"

7.4 = 7 and 4/10

4/10 can be reduced to 2/5

7 represents = (7*5)/5 = 35/5

so . .  7 + 4/10 = 35/5 + 2/5 = 37/5 (improper fraction in simplest form)
or
 . . . . 7 + 4/10 = 7 2/5 (mixed fraction in simplest form)
