One of my questions got solved and helped me so much thank you! Here’s another one please. Two trains are 9.82km apart. They travel in opposite directions, to each other. Train A has a speed of 5.87 km/h at departure and an acceleration of 0.29m/s squared. Train B has a speed of 20.3m/s at the start and an acceleration of 0.69m/s squared. B. Determine when the trains meet.
A space object is launched into the atmosphere at a constant velocity of 30 mi/s. A resident stands 60 miles away from the launching pad. Draw a diagram of the problem and calculate the distance between the space object and resident when the space object is 42 miles high from the launching pad.
a) On an interstate highway in a rural region of Wyoming, a car is traveling at a speed of 38.0 m/s. Is the driver ?exceeding the speed limit of 75.0 mi/h b) What if the driver were from outside the United States and is familiar with speeds measured in kilometres per hour? What is the speed of the carin ?km/h
An object's position in the as a function of time obeys the equation; x (t) = 3t – 2t³ + 1.5t where all constants have proper SI Units. What is the speed of the object in the x direction at t = 1.75 seconds?
Sammy the sugar glider is out one morning foraging for fruit. He waddles his body along a tree branch 4.2m at 30degrees EoN and then turns and leaps and glides to a nearby tree that is 6.5m at 15degrees NoW. Using the triangle method, what was his overall displacement?
A girl is standing at the edge of a cliff 100. m above the ground. She reaches out over the edge of the cliff and throws a rock straight upward with a speed 8.00 m/s. a) How long does it take the rock to hit the ground? b) What is the speed of the rock the instant before it hits the ground? Please type answer
A boat traveling across a river has a resultant velocity of 10 km/h and travels 34 degrees with respect to the shore. A) What is the boats velocity in m/s? B) What is the velocity of the river in m/s?
A seagull flies at a velocity of 7.5 m/s relative to the air straight into the wind. vSA = 7.5 m/s t = 23 min d = 6.8 km If it takes the bird 23 min to travel 6.8 km relative to the Earth, what is the velocity of the wind, in meters per second, relative to the Earth? Take the direction of travel of the seagull to be positive.
FUNDAMENTAL OF KINEMATICS 1.) A vehicle runs horizontally at the rate of 20m/sec for 10 sec., then turns in a direction of 30 deg. With hor'l and decelerate at 10 m/sec for 5 sec. What is the total distance traveled within the 15 sec period? And what is it's total displacement?
A conveyor belt is used to send burgers through a grilling machine. If the grilling machine is 1.2 m long and the burgers require 2.8 min to cook, how fast must the conveyor belt travel? If the burgers are spaced 25 cm apart, what is the rate of burger production (in burgers/min)?
A passenger in a train moving at 30 m/s passes a personstanding on a station platform at t=t'=0. Twenty secondsafter the train passes, the person on the platform determines thata bird flying along the tracks in the same direction as the trainis 800m away. Five seconds later, the bird is 850maway. Assume a constant velocity for all involved. a) Draw a coordinate system indicating the motion of bird andtrain in the grame of the observer on the platform b) What are the coordinates of the bird as determined by thepassenger? c) Find the velocity of the bird as determined by the observeron the platform and the train passenger. Thanks! Will rate highest
