The faster car behind is catching up/closing the gap/gaining on
the slow truck in front at the rate of (90 - 50) = 40 km/hr.
At that rate, it takes (100 m) / (40,000 m/hr) = 1/400 of an hour
to reach the truck.
(1/400 hour) x (3,600 seconds/hour) = 3600/400 = <em>9 seconds</em>, exactly
it would be appropriate to round a number when you are talking about people or animals. Ex. it fits 10 1/2 people. it will most likely fit 9-11 people.
You it is not appropriate to round with money.
Ex. If you owe someone $9.43 you don't just give them $9
Answer:
ice forming and then melting back into water
Answer: if the mass is doubled, the force of gravity is doubled, meaning it decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is 1/4 as strong as before
Explanation:
Answer:
x = 4,138 m
Explanation:
For this exercise, let's use the rotational equilibrium equation.
Let's fix our frame of reference on the left side of the pivot, the positive direction for anti-clockwise rotation
∑ τ = 0
n₁ 0 - W L / 2 + n₂ 4 - W_woman x = 0
x = (- W L / 2 + 4n2) / W_woman
Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI System
M = 6 lbs (1 kg / 2.2 lb) = 2.72 kg
M_woman = 130 lbs = 59.09 kg
Let's write the transnational equilibrium equation
n₁ + n₂ - W - W_woman = 0
n₁ + n₂ = W + W_woman
n₁ + n₂ = (2.72 + 59.09) 9.8
At the point where the system begins to rotate, pivot 1 has no force on it, so its relation must be zero (n₁ = 0)
n₂ = 605,738 N
Let's calculate
x = (-2.72 9.8 6/2 + 4 605.738) / 59.09 9.8
x = 4,138 m
