B) 10.28 s, 4108.2 m = 4.11 km

Explanation:

A) Traveling with an initial speed of 70 km/h, a car accelerates at 6000km/h^2 along a straight road. How long will it take to reach a speed of 120 km/h? Also, through what distance does the car travel during this time?

Using the equations of motion.

v = u + at

v = final velocity = 120 km/h

u = initial velocity = 70 km/h

a = acceleration = 6000 km/h²

t = ?

120 = 70 + 6000t

6000t = 50

t = (50/6000) = 0.0083333333 hours = 30 seconds.

Using the equations of motion further,

v² = u² + 2ax

where x = horizontal distance covered by the car during this time

120² = 70² + 2×6000×x

12000x = 120² - 70² = 9500

x = (9500/12000) = 0.79167 km = 791.67 m = 792 m

B) At t = 0 bullet A is fired vertically with an initial (muzzle) velocity of 450 m/s. When t = 3 s, bullet B is fired upward with a muzzle velocity of 600 m/s. Determine the time t, after A is fired, as to when bullet B passes bullet A. At what altitude does this occur?

Bullet A is fired upwards with velocity 450 m/s

Bullet B is fired upwards with velocity 600 m/s too

Using the equations of motion, we can obtain a relation for when vertical distance covered by the bullets and time since they were fired.

y = ut + ½at²

For the bullet A

u = initial velocity = 450 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²

y = 450t - 4.9t² (eqn 1)

For the bullet B, fired 3 seconds later,

u = initial velocity = 600 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²

t = T

y = 600T - 4.9T²

At the point where the two bullets pass each other, the vertical heights covered are equal

y = y

450t - 4.9t² = 600T - 4.9T²

But, note that, since T starts reading, 3 seconds after t started reading,

T = (t - 3) s

450t - 4.9t² = 600T - 4.9T²

450t - 4.9t² = 600(t-3) - 4.9(t-3)²

450t - 4.9t² = 600t - 1800 - 4.9(t² - 6t + 9)

450t - 4.9t² = 600t - 1800 - 4.9t² + 29.4t - 44.1

600t - 1800 - 4.9t² + 29.4t - 44.1 - 450t + 4.9t² = 0

179.4t - 1844.1 = 0

t = (1844.1/179.4) = 10.28 s

Putting this t into the expression for either of the two y's, we obtain the altitude at which this occurs.

y = 450t - 4.9t²

= (450×10.28) - (4.9×10.28×10.28)

= 4,108.2 m = 4.11 km

Hope this Helps

Well, do you have the length and width of the inclined plane? If not, there is no possible way to answer this. If you could add a photo of the question that would be great.
