Answer:
(a). Mario's speed in m/s = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s.
Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s = 3.92 × 10^-3 m/s.
(b). 27001.2 seconds(s)..
(c). 141 metre(m).
Explanation:
So, the following data or parameters or information was given in the question above. These informations are going to help us in solving this question or problem;
=>" Bowser Jr. then passes Mario at his top speed = 30 blocks/h.
=> " Mario quickly accelerates and reaches his top speed of 40 blocks/h in order to catch back up and pass Bowser Jr., but by this point he has opened up a 75 block head start down the track."
=> "Mario world measure distance using the units of blocks, with 1 block = 0.47 m"
Therefore, the solution is given below;
(1). For the first part, we are to determine or calculate Mario and Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s.
Therefore, Mario's speed in m/s = 40 × 0.47) ÷ 3600 = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s.
Also, Bowser Jr.'s speeds in m/s = ( 30 × 0.47) ÷ 3600 = 3.92 × 10^3 m/s.
(2). So, the next thing to do now.is to determine or calculate how long it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.
Thus, the time it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr. Can be related as below;
[ ( 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s) - (3.92 × 10^-3 m/s) × (time,t taken for Mario to catch Bowser Jr.) = 75 × 0.47.
Therefore, the time it took for Mario to catch Bowser Jr. = 27001.2 seconds.
(3). Now, we calculate How far down the track Mario from the point at which he reaches his top speed.
The distance = 5.2 × 10^-3 m/s × 27001.2m = 141m

A car moving with an intial velocity of 60m/s is brought to rest in 30 seconds calculate the acceleration
Answer:
a = 2 [m/s^2]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the expressions of kinematics, we must bear in mind that when a body is at rest its velocity is zero.
[tex]v_{f} = v_{i} - (a*t)[/tex]
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vi = initial velocity = 60 [m/s]
a = desacceleration [m/s^2]
t = time = 30 [s]
Note: the negative sign of the above equation means that the car is slowing down, i.e. its speed decreases.
0 = 60 - (a*30)
a = 2 [m/s^2]

A tower crane has a hoist motor rated at 159 hp. If the crane is limited to using 72.0 % of its maximum hoisting power for safety reasons, what is the shortest time in which the crane can lift a 5550 kg load over a distance of 89.0 m
Answer:
The value is [tex]t = 56.68 \ s [/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The rating of the hoist motor is [tex]k = 159hp = 159 *746 =118614 \ W[/tex]
The percentage of it power used is [tex]z = 0.72 * 118614=85402.08 \ W[/tex]
The mass of the load is m = 5550 kg
The distance is h = 89.0 m
The potential energy required to lift the load through that distance is
[tex]E = m * g * h[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 5550 * 9.8 * 89.0[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 4840710 \ J[/tex]
Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as
[tex]t = \frac{E}{ z}[/tex]
=> [tex]t = \frac{4840710}{ 85402.08}[/tex]
=> [tex]t = 56.68 \ s [/tex]
A solid nonconducting sphere of radius R carries a charge Q distributed uniformly throughout its volume. At a certain distance rl (r
(A) E/8
(B) E 78.
(C) E/2
(D) 2E
(E) 8E
Answer:
A ) E/8
Explanation:
If the sphere of radius R carries charge Q, then the volumetric charge density is:
ρ₁ = [Q/ (4/3)*π*R³]
Therefore the net charge inside r ( r < R ) is:
q₁ = ρ * (4/3)*π*r³
And E = K * q₁/r K = 9,98 *10⁹ [N*m²/C²]
E = K * ρ * (4/3)*π*r³/r
E = K * ρ * (4/3)*π*r²
If now the charge is distributed over a sphere of radius 2R
ρ₂ = [Q/ (4/3)*π*(2R)³]
ρ₂ = [Q/ (4/3)*π*8*R³]
Then ρ₂ < ρ₁ in fact ρ₂ = (1/8)*ρ₁
The electric field depends on the net charge enclosed by a gaussian surface, and the distance between the net charge and the considered point, ( considering the net charge as being at the center of the gaussian surface) In this case, there was no distance change then
E₂ = E₁/8
The right answer is lyrics A ) E/8

A 849-kg car starts from rest on a horizontal roadway and accelerates eastward for 5.00 s when it reaches a speed of 35.0 m/s. What is the average force exerted on the car during this time
Answer:
The average force exerted on the car during this time is 5,943 N
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the car, m = 849 kg
initial velocity of the car, u = 0
time of motion of the car, t = 5.00 s
final velocity of the car, v = 35 m/s
The average force exerted on the car during this time is given by;
[tex]F = ma \\\\F = \frac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F = \frac{849(35-0)}{5}\\\\F = \frac{849(35)}{5}\\\\ F = 849*7\\\\F = 5,943 \ N[/tex]
Therefore, the average force exerted on the car during this time is 5,943 N
Answer:
5943N
Let's say (+x) = eastward
Average horizontal acceleration
ax = vx -v0x/5.00s
= 35.0m/s-0/5.00s
= +7.09m/s
From here we apply the second law of newton
During this period average horizontal force acting on car
Summation x = max = (849kg)(+7.09m/s²)
= 5943N
+5.943x10³N
= 5.94kN east ward.
What is the correct answer?
Answer:
2156 N
Explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Mass of satellite (m) = 220 Kg
Force (F) of gravity =?
The force of gravity exerted on the satellite on the surface of the earth can be obtained by using the following formula:
Force (F) of gravity = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)
F = mg
Mass of satellite (m) = 220 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Force (F) of gravity =?
F = mg
F = 220 × 9.8
F = 2156 N
Thus, the force of gravity exerted on the satellite on the surface of the earth is 2156 N
If the power supply is to be made safe by increasing its internal resistance, what should the internal resistance be for the maximum current in the above situation to be Imax
The complete question is;
A person with body resistance between his hands of 10 kΩ accidentally grasps the terminals of a 16-kV power supply. What is the power dissipated in his body?
A) If the internal resistance of the power supply is 1600 Ω , what is the current through the person's body?
B) What is the power dissipated in his body?
C) If the power supply is to be made safe by increasing its internal resistance, what should the internal resistance be for the maximum current in the above situation to be I_max = 1.00mA or less?
Answer:
A) I = 1.379 A
B) P = 19016.41 W
C) r = 15990000 Ω
Explanation:
A) We are given;
Internal resistance of the power supply; r = 1600 Ω
Body resistance between hands; R = 10kΩ = 10000 Ω
Power supply voltage; E =16 kV = 16000 V
Formula for the current through the person's body with internal resistance is given by;
I = E/(R + r)
Thus;
I = 16000/(10000 + 1600)
I = 1.379 A
B) Formula for power dissipated is;
P = I²R
P = 1.379² × 10000
P = 19016.41 W
C) Now, we are told that the maximum current should be I_max = 1.00mA or less. So, I_max = 0.001 A
Thus, from I = E/(R + r) and making r the subject, we have;
r = (E/I) - R
r = (16000/0.001) - 10000
r = 15990000 Ω

A car at the top of a ramp starts from rest and rolls to the bottom of the ramp, achieving a certain final speed. If you instead wanted the car to achieve twice as much speed at the bottom of the ramp, how high should the ramp be compared to the first case
Answer:
It must be 4 times high.
Explanation:
Assuming that the car can be treated as a point mass, and that the ramp is frictionless, the total mechanical energy must be conserved.This means, that at any time, the following must be true:ΔK (change in kinetic energy) = ΔU (change in gravitational potential energy)⇒ [tex]m*g*h = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2}[/tex]
Let's call v₁, to the final speed of the car, and h₁ to the height of the ramp.So, at the bottom of the ramp, all the gravitational potential energy
must be equal to the kinetic energy of the car (Defining the bottom of
the ramp as our zero reference for the gravitational potential energy):
[tex]m*g*h_{1} = \frac{1}{2} * m*v_{1} ^{2}[/tex] (1)
Now, let's do v₂ = 2* v₁Replacing in (1) we get:[tex]m*g*h_{2} = \frac{1}{2} * m*(2*v_{1}) ^{2}[/tex] (2)
Dividing (2) by (1), and rearranging terms, we get:h₂ = 4* h₁An airplane, starting at rest, takes off on a 600. m long runway accelerating at a rate of 12 m/s/s. How many seconds does it take to reach the end of the runway?
x = 1/2 at²
where x = length of runway, a = acceleration, and t = time.
600 m = 1/2 (12 m/s²) t²
t² = (1200 m) / (12 m/s²)
t² = 100 s²
t = 10 s

Answer:speeding up constantly
Explanation:
The graph between the time and the speed of the car shows that the speed is increasing constantly, so, option C is correct.
What is speed?A moving object's rate of change in distance traveled is measured as speed. Speed is a scalar, which implies it is a measurement with a magnitude but no direction.
A thing that moves quickly and with high speed, covering a lot of ground in a short time. On the other hand, a slow-moving object traveling at a low speed covers a comparatively small distance in the same amount of time. An object with zero speed does not move at all.
Given:
The graph shows the speed of a car traveling east over a 12-second period,
As you can see from the graph, at time t = 0 sec the speed is 10 m/s,
At t = 3 sec, the speed = 15.3 m/s
At t = 6 sec, the speed = 20.3 m/s
Thus, speed is increasing constantly.

It takes 3.8 x 10^-5 for a pulse of the radio waves from a radar to reach a plane and bounce back. How far is the plane from the radar?
Answer: 11400 m
Explanation:
Given:
t = 3.8 x 10^-5 s
v = 3 x 10^8 m/s
d = ?
Formula:
d = vt
= (3.8 x 10^-5 s)(3 x 10^8 m/s)
= 11400 m
hope this helps :)
The uniform movement allows to find the results for the distance from the radar to the plane is: 5.7 10³ m or 5.7 km
Kinematics studies the motion of objects looking for relationships between position, velocity and acceleration, in the special case that the acceleration is zero is called uniform motion and is described by the expression
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
d = v t
Where v is the velocity, d the displacement and t the time.
Radar waves are electromagnetic waves with constant velocity
v = 3 10⁸ m/s
They indicate that the time of the waves to go to the plane and return is 3.8 10⁻⁵ s, therefore if the speed is constant, the time to reach the plane is half of the total time.
t = [tex]\frac{t_{total} }{ 2}[/tex]
t = [tex]\frac{3.8 \ 10^{-5}}{2}[/tex]
t = 1.9 10⁻⁵ s
Let's calculate
d = 3 10⁸ 1.9 10⁻⁵
d = 5.7 10³
In conclusion with the uniform movement we can find the results for the distance from the radar to the plane is: 5.7 10³ m or 5.7 km

block of mass m sits at rest on a rough inclined ramp that makes an angle with the horizontal. What must be true about normal force F on the block due to the ramp
Answer:
Explanation:
For a body on a ramp with mass m, the forces acting on the body along the vertical component are the weight and the normal reaction.
The weight of the body acts in the negative y direction while the normal reaction acts in the positive y direction
Taking the sum of forces along the y component
Sum Fy = -W+R = ma
Since acceleration is zero
-W+R = m(0)
-W+R = 0
-W = -R
W = R
Hence the Normal reaction force acting on the on the body is equal to normal force

Answer:
(a) 0.829 m/s
(b) 3.27 m/s
(c) 0.000153 m²
55.8%
Explanation:
(a) Flow rate equals velocity times cross-sectional area. (1 L = 0.001 m³)
Q = vA
(0.001 m³ / 2.00 s) = v (48 × π (0.002 m)²)
v = 0.829 m/s
(b) Use Bernoulli equation. Choose point 1 to be the exit of the pump, and point 2 to be exit of the shower head. Choose 0 elevation to be at point 1.
P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρgh₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂
(1.50 atm × 1.0×10⁵ Pa/atm) + ½ (1000 kg/m³) v² + 0 = (1 atm × 1.0×10⁵ Pa/atm) + ½ (1000 kg/m³) (0.829 m/s)² + (1000 kg/m³) (10 m/s²) (5.50 m)
1.50×10⁵ Pa + (500 kg/m³) v² = 1×10⁵ Pa + 414.5 Pa + 55000 Pa
v = 3.27 m/s
(c) Flow rate is constant.
Q = vA
(0.001 m³ / 2.00 s) = (3.27 m/s) A
A = 0.000153 m²
Flow rate is proportional to the pressure difference and the radius raised to the fourth power.
Q ∝ ΔP r⁴
Q₂/Q₁ = (ΔP₂/ΔP₁) (r₂/r₁)⁴
Q₂/Q₁ = (1.120) (0.840)⁴
Q₂/Q₁ = 0.558
The flow decreases to 55.8% of the original value.
Answer:
Explanation:
Regarding the point of "Flow rate is proportional to the pressure difference and the radius raised to the fourth power", flow rate depends on pressure, cross-section area and speed. As speed also depends on cross-section area, flow rate becomes dependent on pressure and cross-section area squared.
In a round pipe like blood vessel, the cross-section area is equal to pi*radius squared. So flow rate is proportional to the pressure difference and (radius squared) squared; i.e. the radius raised to the fourth power.
The new flow rate = (1.12)*(0.84)^4
=0.5576 or 55.76% of the original flow rate
The horizontal surface on which the block slides is frictionless. The speed of the block before it touches the spring is 6.0 m/s. How fast is the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed 15 cm
Answer:
The final speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed is approximately 3.674 meters per second.
Explanation:
The spring constant is 2000 newtons per meter. Let consider the spring-block system, from Principle of Energy Conservation we can represent it by the following model:
[tex]U_{k,1}+K_{1} = U_{k,2}+K_{2}[/tex]
[tex]K_{2} = K_{1}+(U_{k,1}-U_{k,2})[/tex] (Eq. 1)
Where:
[tex]K_{1}[/tex], [tex]K_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final kinetic energies of the block, measured in joules.
[tex]U_{k,1}[/tex], [tex]U_{k,2}[/tex] - Initial and final elastic potential energy, measured in joules.
And we expand the equation above by definitions of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{2}^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v_{1}^{2} + \frac{1}{2}\cdot k\cdot (x_{1}^{2}-x_{2}^{2})[/tex]
[tex]v_{2} = \sqrt{v_{1}^{2}+\frac{k}{m}\cdot (x_{1}^{2}-x_{2}^{2}) }[/tex] (Eq. 1b)
Where:
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the block, measured in kilograms.
[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, measured in newtons per meter.
[tex]v_{1}[/tex], [tex]v_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final velocities of the block, measured in meters per second.
[tex]x_{1}[/tex], [tex]x_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final positions of spring, measured in meters.
If we know that [tex]v_{1} = 6\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]k = 2000\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]m = 2\,kg[/tex], [tex]x_{1} = 0\,m[/tex] and [tex]x_{2} = 0.15\,m[/tex], the final speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed is:
[tex]v_{2} = \sqrt{\left(6\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(\frac{2000\,\frac{N}{m} }{2\,kg} \right)\cdot [(0\,m)^{2}-(0.15\,m)^{2}]}[/tex]
[tex]v_{2}\approx 3.674\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The final speed of the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed is approximately 3.674 meters per second.
Two protons are a distance 3 10-9 m apart. What is the electric potential energy of the system consisting of the two protons
Answer:
The electric potential energy of the system is 7.87x10⁻²⁰ J.
Explanation:
The electric potential energy is given by:
[tex]E = \int{Fdr} = \frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}[/tex]
Where:
q₁ = q₂ is the charge of the protons = 1.62x10⁻¹⁹ C
r is the distance = 3x10⁻⁹ m
K: is the electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹ Nm²/C²
[tex] E = \frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r} = \frac{9\cdot 10^{9} Nm^{2}/C^{2}*(1.62 \cdot 10^{-19} C)^{2}}{3\cdot 10^{-9} m} = 7.87 \cdot 10^{-20} J [/tex]
Therefore, the electric potential energy of the system is 7.87x10⁻²⁰ J.
I hope it helps you!
The electric potential energy of the system should be 7.87x10⁻²⁰ J.
Calculation of the electric potential energy:SInce We know that
fdr = kq1q2/r
Here
q₁ = q₂ i.e. is the charge of the protons = 1.62x10⁻¹⁹ C
r should be the distance = 3x10⁻⁹ m
K should be the electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹ Nm²/C²
Now electric potential energy should be
= (9x10⁹ Nm²/C² * 1.62x10⁻¹⁹ C) / 3x10⁻⁹ m
= 7.87x10⁻²⁰ J.
hence, The electric potential energy of the system should be 7.87x10⁻²⁰ J.

SOH-CAH-TOA is used to solve for the ________
velocities in a full/angled projectile.
a. final (x and y)
b. overall
c. initial (x and y)
d. resultant
Answer:
c. initial (x and y)
Explanation:
When a projectile is launched at a velocity with a launch angle, to solve it, we must first resolve the initial velocity into the x and y components. To do this will mean we have to treat it like a triangle due to the launch angle and the direction of the projectile.
Therefore, we will have to make use of trigonometric ratios which is also known by the mnemonic "SOH CAH TOA"
Thus, this method resolves the initial x and y velocities.

Answer: Calculate the energy required in joules to raise the temperature of 450 grams of water from 15°C to 85°C? (The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g/°C)
Explanation:
The quantity of heat is required to raise the temperature of of water is 94050 joule.
What is law of conservation of energy?Energy cannot be created or destroyed, according to the law of conservation of energy. However, it is capable of change from one form to another. An isolated system's total energy is constant regardless of the types of energy present.
The law of energy conservation is adhered to by all energy forms. The law of conservation of energy essentially says that the total energy of the system is conserved in a closed system, also known as an isolated system.
Mass of water: m = 450 grams
Initial temperature of water = 35° C
Final temperature of water = 85° C
Capacity of water is 4.18 J/g °C.
Hence, the quantity of heat is required to raise = mass × Capacity × raise in temperature
= 450 × 4.18 × (85 - 35) joule
= 94050 joule.

[tex] a = \frac{GM}{r_{T}^{2}} = \frac{6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^{3}/(kg*s^{2})*5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg}{(6377700 m)^{2}} = 9.79 m/s^{2} [/tex]
Therefore, the effective value of g at 6700 m above the Earth's surface is 9.79 m/s².
I hope it helps you!
A person walks 2.00 m east, then turns and goes 4.00 m west, then turns and goes back 1.00 m east. what is the distance and displacement
Explanation:
Let east = E, and, west = opposite to east = - E.
Here, displacement:
=> 2m east + 4m west + 1m east
=> 2E + 4(-E) + 1E
=> 2E - 4E + 1E
=> - 1E
=> 1(-E)
=> 1m west
And, distance,
=> 2m + 4m + 1m = 7m
The distance of a person is 7 m and the displacement of the person is 1m west.
To find the distance and displacement, the given values are,
A person walks 2.00 m east, then turns and goes 4.00 m west, then turns and goes back 1.00 m east.
What is the distance and the displacement?Displacement:
The displacement is shortest distance between initial and final position or we can say it is the straight line distance between initial and final position.If object moves in a straight line path without any turn then the path length and the displacement is always same.Distance:
The distance is the total path length of the object while it will move from initial to final position.If the object move on curved path then displacement is smaller than the distance moved by the object.Let us consider East = E and west = opposite to east = - E.
Calculating the displacement:
= 2m east + 4m west + 1m east
= 2E + 4(-E) + 1E
= 2E - 4E + 1E
= - 1E
= 1(-E)
= 1m west.
The displacement is 1m west.
Now calculating the distance,
= 2m + 4m + 1m
= 7m
The distance is 7m.
Thus, the displacement and the distance is found as 1 m west and 7m.
