Answer:

Acceleration = a = 3.75 m/s^2

Explanation:

Mass of truck1 = m1 = 2300 kg

Mass of truck2 = m2 = 2500 kg  

Total mass = m = m1 + m2 = 2300 + 2500 = 4800 kg

Force exerted by truck1 = F = 18000 N

As both trucks are joint together so, behaving as single object. The acceleration can be found by Newton’s second law of motion.

F = ma  

a = F/m = 18000/4800

a = 3.75 m/s^2

F=ma
m=total mass = 2300kg+2500kg=4800
F=18000N
a=?
a=F/m
a=18000/4800
a=3.8m/s^2

A champion athlete can produce one horsepower (746 W) for a short period of time. The number of 16-cm-high steps a 70-kg athlete
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

407 steps

Explanation:

From the question,

P = mgh/t........... Equation 1

Where P = power, m = mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height, t = time.

Make h the subject of the equation

h = Pt/mg............. Equation 2

Given: P = 746 W, t = 1 minute = 60 seconds, m = 70 kg.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

h = 746(60)/(70×9.8)

h = 44760/686

h = 65.25 m

h = 6525 cm

number of steps = 6525/16

number of steps = 407 steps

Snowboarder Jump—Energy and Momentum
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

THE ANSWER TERMS ARE DEFINED BLOW:-

Explanation:

MOMENTUM- IT IS THE ABILITY TO INCREASE OR DEVELOP CONSTANT FORCE.

KINETIC ENERGY:- IT IS THE ENERGY THAT A PRTICLE POSSES WHEN IT IS ACTUALLY IN MOTION.

POTENTIAL ENERGY:- IT IS THE ENERGY THAT A PARTICLE POSSES WHEN IT ACTUALLY IS IN RESTING STATE.

IN THIS ACIVITY THE SNOWBOARDER IS IN THE MOTION STATE THEREFORE HE POSSES KINETIC ENERGY AND TO MAINTAIN THAT KINEITC ENERG FOR A PERIOD OF TIME,MOMENTUM PLAYS IT'S ROLE.

a pitcher threw a baseball straight up at 35.8 meters per second. what is the ball's velocity after 2.50 seconds?
Andrei [34K]
Ok the velocity of an object in free fall is given by the equation :

v=v0-gt, where v0 is the original velocity, g is the gravitational constant (9.8 m/s^2) and t is the time. 

so, we substitute values into this equation. v=35.8-9.8*2.5; v=11.3 m/s

"The predictions of Einstein’s Theory of General Relativity were tested on a double pulsar system in January of 2004. His equati
Rasek [7]

Answer:

99.95%

Explanation:

A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B  in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.

A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.
