<span>21.5 ft/s^2 The formula for distance traveled under constant acceleration is d = 0.5 AT^2 where d = distance A = acceleration T = time Solving for A, gives d = 0.5 AT^2 2d = AT^2 (1) 2d/T^2 = A The formula for velocity under constant acceleration is V = AT Solving for A, gives V = AT (2) V/T = A Now setting equations (1) and (2) above equal to each other and solving for T: V/T = 2d/T^2 TV = 2d (3) T = 2d/V Now substitute equation (3) into (2) above. V/T = A V/(2d/V) = A V * V/2d = A V^2/2d = A Plug in values and calculate. V^2/2d = A (44 ft/s)^2/(2*45 ft) = A (1936 ft^2/s^2)/(90 ft) = A 21.51111111 ft/s^2 = A Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 21.5 ft/s^2</span>

A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pairs of cities. She drives for 30.0 min
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Average speed of the trip = 52.9 km/h

Distance between initial pairs of cities (start to end) = 70.0 km

Explanation:

Since distance = speed × time

If she drives 30.0 min at 80.0 km/h

Distance covered = (30/60) × 80 = 40.0 km

Again she drives 45.0 min at 40 km/h

Distance covered = (45/60) × 40 = 30.0 km

Again she drives 12.0 min at 100 km/h

Distance covered = (12/60) × 100 = 20.0 km

Total distance covered =  40.0 + 30.0 + 20.0

                                       = 90.0 km

Total time spent = 30.0 + 45.0 + 12.0 +15.0

                           = 102 min

Average speed for the trip = Total distance covered/total time spent

                                             = 90/(102/60)

                                             = 52.9 km/h

Distance between initial cities will be between the start of one city to the end of another

Between the first pairs = 40.0 + 30.0 = 70.0 km

Between the second pairs = 30.0 + 20.0 = 50.0 km

A 1050 kg sports car is moving westbound at 13.0 m/s on a level road when it collides with a 6320 kg truck driving east on the s
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

(A) V = 9.89m/s

(B) U = -2.50m/s

(C) ΔK.E = –377047J

(D) ΔK.E = –257750J

Explanation:

The full solution can be found in the attachment below. The east has been chosen as the direction for positivity.

This problem involves the principle of momentum conservation. This principle states that the total momentum before collision is equal to the total momentum after collision. This problem is an inelastic kind of collision for which the momentum is conserved but the kinetic energy is not. The kinetic energy after collision is always lesser than that before collision. The balance is converted into heat by friction, and also sound energy.

See attachment below for full solution.
