Ahigh-speed ""bullet"" train accelerates and decelerates at the rate 4 ft/s 2 . its maximum cruising speed is 90 mi/hr. (a) what is the maximum distance (in miles) the train can travel if it accelerates from rest until it reaches its cruising speed and then runs at that speed for 15 minutes? maximum distance = miles

23 mi

Explanation:

Let us first record all the values we have

acceleration = 4 ft/s

max speed = 90 mi/hr * 1 hr/3600s * 5280 ft/1 mi = 132 ft/s

We can use the equation of linear motion since acceleration is constant

distance covered = distance during acceleration + distance during costant

                                 velocity

distance in miles = 120 978 ft * 1 mi/5280 ft = 22.9125 mi ≈ 23 mi

he made 11 calls in one day

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.
