To determine the average net force, we can calculate acceleration using:

x = 0.5*a*t^2

v = a*t

where x=3.6m and v=185 m/s.

Thus,

t=v/a and therefore x = 0.5*a*(v/a)^2 = 0.5 * (v^2)/a

which gives us a= (0.5*v^2)/x

Since we have the known values of v and x, we can compute a by substituting these numbers.

The average net force is then given as:

F = m*a,

with m=7.5kg.

A particular brand of gasoline has a density of 0.737 g/mLg/mL at 25 ∘C∘C. How many grams of this gasoline would fill a 14.9 gal
Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer:

The answer to your inquiry is Mass = 41230.7 g or 41.23 kg.

Explanation:

Data

Density = 0.737 g/ml

Mass = ?

Volume = 14.9 gal

1 gal = 3.78 l

Process

1.- Convert gallons to liters

1 gal ---------------- 3.78 l

14.9 gal ------------- x

x = 56.44 l

2.- Convert liters to milliliters

1 l ------------------- 1000 ml

56.44 l --------------- x

x = (56.44 x 1000) / 1

x = 56444 ml

3.- Calculate the mass

Formula

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Solving for mass

Mass = density x volume

Substituting values

Mass = 0.737 x 56444

Result

Mass = 41230.7 g or 41.23 kg.

A scientist is creating a new synthetic material. The material’s density is 6.1 g/cm3. Which sentences describe how the scientis
ValentinkaMS [1149]
Density is defined as the mass divided by the volume.

You can alter the density of a substance by adjusting either its mass or volume.

Increasing the volume while maintaining a constant mass will result in a decrease in density (as the denominator of the fraction increases).

Furthermore, reducing the mass while keeping the volume the same will also lower the density (because the numerator is reduced).

Therefore, to achieve a lower density, you should either reduce the mass or increase the volume, keeping the other constant.

I hope this is helpful.

A bus slows down uniformly from 75.0 km/h to 0 km/h in 21 s. How far does it travel before stopping?
Yuliya22 [1153]

1 hour = 3,600 seconds
1 km = 1,000 meters

75 km/hour = (75,000/3,600) m/s = 20-5/6 m/s

The mean speed during the deceleration is

                                   (1/2)(20-5/6 + 0) = 10-5/12 m/s.

Traveling at this average speed for 21 seconds,
the bus covers

                        (10-5/12) × (21) = 218.75 meters.

A snapshot of three racing cars is shown in the diagram. All three cars start the race at the same time, at the same place, and
Maru [1056]

Answer:

The car that is the furthest from the finish line is: Car III (Choice C).

Explanation:

Here, we seek the car with the lowest overall average speed throughout the race. Thus, the one in last place inherently possesses the slowest average speed.

Since Car III is significantly behind Cars I and II, Choice A and B cannot be correct. Choice D is also not valid, as the positions of the cars are not the same. Lastly, Choice E is incorrect due to sufficient evidence demonstrating that Choice C has the lowest average speed.
