A motorcyclist sees a branch in the road and hits the brakes, slowing down at -6.42 m/s. if it takes him 2.85 seconds to stop, what was his starting velocity?

Use the definition of average acceleration:

a = ∆v / t

If v is the starting speed, then ∆v = 0 - v, so solve for v :

-6.42 m/s² = (0 - v) / (2.85 s)

v = (6.42 m/s²) (2.85 s)

v ≈ 18.3 m/s

layers of the earth affect the waves and these effects are seen on instruiments such as seimometers

weight of the box is given as

here this is placed on the inclined of angle 42 degree

now this weight will have two components one is along the incline other is perpendicular to it

so here we need to apply a force parallel to incline opposite to its component of weight

so here the component of weight is given as

here we have

so it requires 75 n force to move it upwards
