A train is accelerating at a rate of 2 km/hr/s.  If its initial velocity is 20 km/hr, what is its velocity after 30 seconds?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: "2 km/hr/s" means that in each second, its engines can increase its speed by 2 km/hr.

If it keeps doing that for 30 seconds, its speed has increased by 60 km/hr.

On top of the initial speed of 20 km/hr, that's 80 km/hr at the end of the 30 seconds.

This whole discussion is of speed, not velocity. Surely, in high school physics,
you've learned the difference by now. There's no information in the question that
says anything about the train's direction, and it was wrong to mention velocity in
the question.  This whole thing could have been taking place on a curved section
of track. If that were the case, it would have taken a team of ace engineers, cranking
their Curtas, to describe what was happening to the velocity.  Better to just stick with
speed.

The following which is not an example of work is C. holding a tray in the cafeteria line because if force displaces an object it should work. I think it's clear and I am pretty sure this answer will help you.

'When we see something that exists in real life, there are many different ways to display imagery and importance using art. What the artist _____________ depends on what he/she wants to communicate.'

Answers

Answer:

Emphasizes

Explanation:

The expression of an art is intelligible to those that understand it, as such to make an impression an artist has to emphasize the point they want to communicate

An art is an expression of the personal experiences of the artist or a reaction to events or to reveal the realities as seen by the artist such as global warming and the environment, so as to get the attention of people with the goal to change them, such that a good art changes the most people, hence the need for emphasis.

Answer:

A - emphasizes

D= ((vf+vi)/2) t
Solve for vi

Answers

D= ((vf+vi)/2) t

D = (vf +vi)*t/2

2*D = (vf +vi)*t

2D/t = vf +vi

vf +vi =  2D/t

vi = 2D/t - vf
= t(Vf + Vi/2) 
Vf + Vi/2 = d/t 
Vf = (d/t) - Vi/2 

Answer: Vf = (d/t) - Vi/2 OR (2dt - Vit)/2t

A truck accelerates 2 m/s2 when it is empty. If the truck is filled so that it has twice the mass and the same amount of net force is applied, how much will the truck accelerate?8 m/s2
1 m/s2
4 m/s2
2 m/s2

Answers

Answer :

a = 1 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given information

Net force is a constant

The mass of the truck is m_(o)

Initial acceleration a_(o)= 2 m/s^(2)

The mass of the truck is increased twice as much

F_(net)= m_(o) a_(o) = ma

F_(net)= m_(o) a_(o) = 2m_(o)a

a=\frac{a_(o) } {2}

a = 2/2

a = 1 m/s^(2)

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Explanation:

From he question we are told that

    The first mass is   m_1 = 0.42kg

      The second mass is  m_2 = 0.47kg

From the question we can see that at equilibrium the moment about the point where the  string  holding the bar (where m_1 \ and \ m_2 are hanged ) is attached is zero  

   Therefore we can say that

               m_1 * 15cm  = m_2 * xcm

Making x the subject of the formula  

                x = (m_1 * 15)/(m_2)

                    = (0.42 * 15)/(0.47)

                     x = 13.4 cm

Looking at the diagram we can see that the tension T  on the string holding the bar where m_1  \  and   \ m_2 are hanged  is as a result of the masses (m_1 + m_2)

     Also at equilibrium the moment about the point where the string holding the bar (where (m_1 +m_2)  and  m_3 are hanged ) is attached is  zero

   So basically

          (m_1 + m_2 ) * 20  = m_3 * 30

          (0.42 + 0.47)  * 20 = 30 * m_3

 Making m_3 subject

          m_3 = ((0.42 + 0.47) * 20 )/(30 )

                m_3 = 0.59 kg

Formed when wind travels into a low pressure area from opposite directions and creates a spinning storm

Tornadoes are formed when wind travels into a low pressure area from opposite directions and creates a spinning storm. The tornado comes in contact to the earth’s ground and to the clouds (usually cumulus cloud) having a smaller cross sectional area at the ground than on the sky.
