A tortoise and hare start from rest and have a race. As the race begins, both accelerate forward. The hare accelerates uniformly at a rate of 1 m/s2 for 4 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 12.9 seconds, before getting tired and slowing down with constant acceleration coming to rest 66 meters from where it started. The tortoise accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the hare just as the hare comes to a stop. 1)How fast is the hare going 1.6 seconds after it starts

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

v = 4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of hare, u = 0

The hare accelerates uniformly at a rate of 1 m/s² for 4 seconds.

We need to find how fast is the hare going 1.6 seconds after it starts. Let the speed be v. So,

v = u+at

Substitute all the values,

v = 0+1×4

v = 4 m/s

So, the required speed of the hare is 4 m/s after it starts.

Answers

Answer:

Endothermic, because the reactants are lower in energy (C)

Explanation:

From the graph, you can see the energy of the products is higher than the energy of the reactants. If you recall that  when the enthalpy change  Eproducts is gretater than  Ereactants, the reaction is said to be endothermic.

Did I hear correctly that the speed of light is different in deep space observation?

Answers

Answer:

Astronomers can learn about the elements in stars and galaxies by decoding the information in their spectral lines. There is a complicating factor in learning how to decode the message of starlight, however. If a star is moving toward or away from us, its lines will be in a slightly different place in the spectrum from where they would be in a star at rest. And most objects in the universe do have some motion relative to the Sun.

what is the mathematical definition of momentum? what is a more conceptual or descriptive definition of momentum?​

Answers

Answer:

Momentum can be defined as "mass in motion." All objects have mass; so if an object is moving, then it has momentum - it has its mass in motion.

Explanation:

5.0 L/s water flows through a horizontal pipe that narrows smoothly from 10.0 cm diameter to 5.0 cm diameter. A pressure gauge in the narrow section reads 50 kPa. What is the reading of the pressure gauge in the wide section

Answers

Solution :

The volume rate of flow is given by : R = 5.0 L/s

                                                                 [tex]$ = 5.0 \times 10^{-3} \ m^3/s$[/tex]

The radius of the pipe, [tex]$r_1= 5 \times 10^{-2} \ m$[/tex]

∴ [tex]$ 5.0 \times 10^{-3} = \pi (2.5 \times 10^{-2})^2 v_1$[/tex]

then, [tex]$v_1 = \frac{5.0 \times 10^{-3}}{(3.14)(5 \times 10^{-2})^2}$[/tex]

             = 0.637 meter per second

Then the speed of the water at wider section,

[tex]$R=A_1v_1$[/tex]

Similarly, the speed of water at narrow pipe.

The radius of the [tex]$r_2 = 2.5 \times 10^{-2}$[/tex] m

[tex]$5.0 \times 10^{-3} = \pi (2.5 \times 10^{-2})^2 v_1$[/tex]

then, [tex]$v_2 = \frac{5.0 \times 10^{-3}}{(3.14)(2.5 \times 10^{-2})^2}$[/tex]

             = 2.55 meter per sec

Now from Bernoulli's theorem,

[tex]$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 =P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 $[/tex]

[tex]$P_1 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho (v_2^2 - v_1^2)$[/tex]

    [tex]$= 50 \kPa + (0.5)(10^3)[(2.55)^2-(0.637)^2]$[/tex]

    = 50 kPa + 3.05 kPa

    = 53.05 kPa

or 53000 Pa

This question involves the concepts of Bernoulli's Theorem and Volumetric Flowrate.

The pressure reading in the wide section is "53.05 KPa".

First, we will use the volumetric flow rate to find the velocities of the water at wide and narrow sections.

[tex]V = A_1v_1[/tex]

where,

V = Volumetric Flow Rate = 5 L/s = 5 x 10⁻³ m³/s

r₁ = radius of narrow section = 5 cm/2 = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

A₁ = Area of narrow section = πr₁² = π(0.025 m)²

v₁ = velocity at narrow section = ?

Therefore,

[tex]5\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m^3=[\pi(0.025\ m)^2](v_1)\\\\v_1=\frac{5\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m^3}{\pi (0.025\ m)^2}\\\\v_1=2.55\ m/s\\[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]V = A_2v_2[/tex]

where,

V = Volumetric Flow Rate = 5 L/s = 5 x 10⁻³ m³/s

r₂ = radius of wide section = 10 cm/2 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

A₂ = Area of wide section = πr₁² = π(0.05 m)²

v₂ = velocity at wide section = ?

Therefore,

[tex]5\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m^3=[\pi(0.05\ m)^2](v_2)\\\\v_2=\frac{5\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m^3}{\pi (0.05\ m)^2}\\\\v_2=0.64\ m/s\\[/tex]

Now, we will use Bernoulli's Theorem to find out the pressure wide section.

[tex]P_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2=P_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2[/tex]

where,

[tex]\rho[/tex] = density of water = 1000 kg/m³

P₁ = pressure in narrow section = 50 KPa = 50000 Pa

P₂ = pressure in wide section = ?

Therefore,

[tex]50000\ Pa + \frac{1}{2}(1000\ kg/m^3)(2.55\ m/s)^2=P_2 + \frac{1}{2}(1000\ kg/m^3)(0.64\ m/s)^2[/tex]

P₂ = 50000 Pa + 3251.25 Pa - 204.8 Pa

P₂ = 53046.45 Pa = 53.05 KPa

What is the genre of this story?Why is it so quiet? Why can't I move? And why is it so dark? I try to recall where I am, but I cannot remember. Blackness surrounds me.I hear a familiar voice that makes my heart flutter like a thousand butterflies. It is the voice of my friend, Maddy. She visits her grandparents here on the Gulf of Mexico every summer. She usually brings me crumbs, but today, I cannot smell anything except the sour smell of oil. Her voice sounds worried, different from the usual cheerful greeting that she calls me with every day at dusk. I try to turn towards her, but I can't move very well. My feet feel mired as if in quicksand.I hear her come closer. Her words help me understand that something has happened to my home."Oh, grandma! What is all this? They are all covered in it! It's black. Ugh! The smell is so strong I can't stand it." Maddy's tears stream down her face, mingling with mine. I hear her crying, but all is dark, like a moonless night. Where is the smiling sun? I try to stretch out to feel the warmth, but my wings do not respond. Dazed, I call out to my friends hoping they will find me in the blackness, but everything is so still. I hear nothing, except for Maddy's desperation. Her sobs, uncontrollable."Go get some towels, Maddy. Run!" Her grandma tells her, a quiet urgency in her voice. "Hey little one," grandma coos as she bends over me. I can feel her breath on my head. "We've got you and you are going to do all we can for you." All they can? I hear Maddy's hurried footsteps and feel the towel's softness enveloping me as she picks me up in her arms. She is gentle, her sobs quieting as she takes me to her home, seemingly miles and miles from my nest along the shoreline.I hear the phone ring. I hear the news on the television. "Spill...oil...negligence...BP...blame..." "What are we going to do?" I hear the door banging and neighbors' voices, shrill and urgent, coming in and out of the house. All of the sounds tell me that the emergency is intensifying.I still cannot see anything. Maybe it is good that I cannot see. If I could, I might see my home, blackened with the oil of a mishandled well deep in the ocean. I would see my friends, covered in slick crudeness. I would desperately observe the choking, billowing smoke, polluting the Gulf sky, my home. I would see my family unable to fly through the air, unable to dive into the ocean for the delicious meals we used to find there. I fear our fish are no more; they are stuck in the depths of the black, watery grave. What are we going to do? What are we going to do? I hope the humans will do something to bring light to all of the blackness.I hear Maddy, making sweet, soothing sounds as she begins to clean my feathers gently. I hear that sound often.
