Answer:

The car and truck have the same speeds at t = Dt/2.

acceleration equals v(car) = D/t².

Explanation:

Here, acceleration is expressed as v(car) = D/t².

For the velocities to match, the car's final speed must be double that of the truck, provided the car starts from rest. As the acceleration remains constant during the trip, the speeds must coincide at the halfway point of the time.

A locomotive is accelerating at 1.6 m/s2. it passes through a 20.0-m-wide crossing in a time of 2.4 s. after the locomotive leav
kicyunya [3294]

Response:

Once it has crossed, the locomotive requires 17.6 seconds to achieve a speed of 32 m/s.

Details:

  The locomotive's acceleration is 1.6 m/s^2

  The duration taken to pass the crossing is 2.4 seconds.

  We can apply the motion equation, v = u + at, where v represents final velocity, u indicates initial velocity, a denotes acceleration, and t signifies time.

  When the speed reaches 32 m/s, we have v = 32 m/s, u = 0 m/s, and a= 1.6 m/s^2.

   32 = 0 + 1.6 * t

    t = 20 seconds.

  Therefore, the locomotive attains a speed of 32 m/s after 20 seconds, and it passes the crossing in 2.4 seconds.

Thus, after clearing the crossing, it takes an additional 17.6 seconds to reach the speed of 32 m/s.

Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

The typical weight of a human heart is approximately 0.93 lbs.

Explanation:

Based on this,

the heart's weight constitutes about 0.5% of total body mass.

Total human weight = 185 lbs

Let the entire body weight be represented as w and the heart's weight as w_{h}.

We aim to determine the heart's weight for a human

Using the provided information

w_{h}=0.5\times w

Where, h = heart weight

w = human weight

w_{h}=\dfrac{0.5}{100}\times 185

w_{h}=0.93\ lbs

The final weight of a human heart is 0.93 lbs.

When a mass of 25 g is attached to a certain spring, it makes 20 complete vibrations in 4.0 s. what is the spring constant of th
kicyunya [3294]

Response: The spring constant is 25 N/m.

Details:

The body’s mass is 25 g, which converts to 0.025 kg (since 1 kg = 1000 g).

The total oscillations are 20 in 4 seconds.

Oscillations per second = \frac{20}{4}=5

Spring's frequency of vibration is = 5 s^{-1}=5 Hz

The spring constant 'k' can be derived from the relationship involving frequency, mass, and spring constant.

Frequency=\frac{1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

5 s^{-1}=\frac{1}{2\times 3.14}\times \sqrt{\frac{k}{0.025 kg}}

k=24.649 N/m\approx 25 N/m

The spring constant is 25 N/m.
