A truck accelerates from 25 km/hr to 45 km/hr in 40 seconds. Calculate the average acceleration of the vehicle in m/s?.​

Answers

Answer:

0.138889 m/s2

Explanation:

The average acceleration of the vehicle would be 0.139 meters/second².

What is acceleration?

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object.

As given in the problem a truck accelerates from 25 kilometers/hour to 45  kilometers/hour in 40 seconds.

Let us first convert the velocities from kilometers/hour to meters/seconds

25 kilometers/hour ⇒ 25×1000/3600

                                    = 6.94 meters/seconds

45 kilometers/seconds =  45×1000/3600

                                       = 12.5 meters/seconds

acceleration = change in the velocity/time

                     =(12.5 -6.94)/40

                     =0.139 meters/second²

Thus, the acceleration of the truck would be 0.139 meters/second²

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

375 = 0 * 5 + 1/2 * a * (5)^2

375 = 1/2 * a * 25

a = 375*2/25

a = 15* 2

a = 30m/sec^2

v = u + at

v = 0 + 30 * 5

A civil engineer must design a wheelchair-accessible ramp next to a set of steps leading up to a building. The height from the ground to the top of the stairs is 2 ft. Based on ADA codes, the slope must be 1:12 or less. Slope is equal to the rise of the ramp divided by the run of the ramp.

A) Using the ADA code, what is the allowable minimum length of the ramp base?

B) Using the known height and calculated base length, what is the length of the slope of the ramp?

C) What is the ideal mechanical advantage of the ramp?D) If a person and wheelchair have a combined weight of 165 lb, how much ideal effort force is required to travel up the ramp?

Answers

Answer:

A) B = 24 ft

B) H = 24.08 ft

C) M.A = 12.04

D) P = 13.7 lb

Explanation:

A)

Minimum allowable length of base of ramp can be found as follows:

Slope = H/B

where,

Slope = 1/12

H = Height of Ramp = 2 ft

B = Length of Base of Ramp = ?

Therefore,

1/12 = 2 ft/B

B = 2 ft * 12

B = 24 ft

B)

The length of the slope of ramp can be found by using pythagora's theorem:

L = √H² + B²

where,

H = Perpendicular = height = 2 ft

B = Base = Length of Base of Ramp = 24 ft

L = Hypotenuse = Length of Slope of Ramp = ?

Therefore,

H = √[(2 ft)² + (24 ft)²]

H = 24.08 ft

D)

The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is given by the following formula:

M.A = L/H

M.A = 24.08 ft/2 ft

M.A = 12.04

D)

Another general formula for Mechanical Advantage is:

M.A = W/P

where,

W = Ideal Load = 165 lb

P = Ideal Effort Force = ?

Therefore,

12.04 = 165 lb/P

P = 165 lb/12.04

P = 13.7 lb

La motocicleta que tiene el récord mundial de aceleración es una motocicleta eléctrica, llamada "Killacycle" la cual permite pasar de 0 Km/h a 100 km/h en tan solo 1.5 s ¿Cuál es la aceleración media de esta motocicleta?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=18.51\ m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed, u = 0 km/h

Final speed, v = 100 km/h = 27.77 m/s

Time, t = 1.5 s

We need to find the average acceleration of this motorcycle. It is equal to the rate of change of velocity and it is given by :

[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{v}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{27.77\ m}{1.5\ s}\\\\a=18.51\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the acceleration of the motorcycle is [tex]18.51\ m/s^2[/tex].

Why is the Earth generally warmer at the equator than at the poles?

Answers

Because of the earths curve and temperature. The temperature in an area depends on the amount of the Sun's energy reaching the surface in that area. The equator tilts closer to the sun than the poles do. I hope this helps!

Answer: The Sun's energy is more concentrated on the equator than the poles. This is because the Sun's energy (in the form of warmth) is more direct at the equator, and less direct at the poles.

Explanation: You can see this with a flashlight. When you point the flashlight directly toward a tale, the light is very concentrated and right. However, when you point the flashlight toward the table at an angle, the light becomes more spread out and less concentrated.  This is why even though sometimes the North Poles and South Poles have 24 hours of sunlight, it never actually reaches a high temperature and instead, keeps it's cold temperature.

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of the resultant is 8.66 N and [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] south of East.

The magnitude and direction the equilibrant is 8.66 N and [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] North of West respectively.

Explanation:

Let

[tex]P=5\ \text{N}\ \text{south}[/tex]

[tex]Q=5\ \text{N}\ 30^{\circ}\ \text{south of east}[/tex]

[tex]\theta[/tex] = Angle between P and Q = [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex]

Magnitude of resultant

[tex]R=\sqrt{P^2+Q^2+2PQ\cos\theta}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{5^2+5^2+2\times 5\times 5\cos60^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow R=8.66\ \text{N}[/tex]

Direction is given by

[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{Q\sin\theta}{P+Q\sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{5\sin60^{\circ}}{5+5\sin60^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow \theta=30^{\circ}[/tex]

The magnitude and direction of the resultant is 8.66 N and [tex]30^{\circ}+30^{\circ}=60^{\circ}[/tex] south of East.

The magnitude and direction the equilibrant is 8.66 N and [tex]60^{\circ}[/tex] North of West.

If a rock is dropped from the top of a tower at the front of it and takes 3.6 seconds to hit the ground. Calculate the final velocity of the penny in m/s. What is the height of the tower?

Answers

Answer:

35.28m/s; 63.50m

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Time, t = 3.6 secs

Since it's a free fall, acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Initial velocity, u = 0

To find the final velocity, we would use the first equation of motion;

[tex] V = u + at[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] V = 0 + 9.8 * 3.6[/tex]

V = 35.28m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the penny is 35.28m/s.

To find the height, we would use the second equation of motion;

[tex] S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}[/tex]

Substituting the values into the equation;

[tex] S = 0(3.6) + \frac {1}{2}*9.8*(3.6)^{2}[/tex]

[tex] S = 0 + 4.9*12.86[/tex]

[tex] S = 0.5 *36[/tex]

S = 63.50m

Therefore, the height of the tower is 63.50m.
