What is the acceleration of the dragster

Reference no: EM13541337

A VW Beetle goes from 0 to 95.4 mi/h with an acceleration of +6.68 m/s2. (a) How much time does it take for the Beetle to reach this speed? (b) A top-fuel dragster can go from 0 to 95.4 mi/h in 1.49 s. What is the acceleration (in m/s2) of the dragster?

Neglect any effects of air resistance-what speed was thrown : A rock is thrown directly upward from the edge of the roof of a building that is 32.5 meters tall. The rock misses the building on its way down, and is observed to strike the ground 4.00 seconds after being thrown. Neglect any effects of air resistan..

The vertical velocity of the rocket on impact with ground : A rocket is launched from a 350 m high cliff at an angle of 25? with an initial velocity of 50 m/s. The rocket engine produces a constant horizontal acceleration of 5 m/s2. (g=9.8m/s2). Begin by drawing a diagram and determine:

Fish for entire process of jumping and swimming underwater : Chinook salmon are able to move through water especially fast by jumping out of the water periodically. This behavior is called porpoising. Suppose a salmon swimming in still water jumps out of the water with velocity 6.59 m/s at 41.7° above the h..
