Question:  Initially, the car travels along a straight road with a speed of 35 m/s. If the brakes are applied and the speed of the car is reduced to 13 m/s in 17 s, determine the constant deceleration of the car.

Answer:

1.29 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question,

a = (v-u)/t............................ Equation 1

Where a = deceleration of the car, v = final velocity of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, t = time.

Given: v = 13 m/s, u = 35 m/s, t = 17 s.

a = (13-35)/17

a = -22/17

a = -1.29 m/s²

Hence the deceleration of the car is 1.29 m/s²

A hand moves a block vertically upward. Its speed slows down as it moves up (it is decelerating). The work done by gravity on th
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

a. negative

b. zero

Explanation:

work is the change in the energy of a system due to external forces

work is done when a force moves a load through a distance in the direction of the force

The work done by a force on a  system is positive when the force  and the force displacement point  in the same direction and negative  when they point in opposite  directions

in the scenario we are considering in the question, the force (the hand) moves the block vertically upwards but the displacement of the block reduces (in the opposite direction) since it decelerates. as such the work done by gravity on the block is negative.

the work done on the block is zero if the system consists of the block and the earth because there is no gravitational force exerted on the system

When a forklift raises an object, is it doing positive or negative work on the object? Which type of work is the force of gravit
Alja [10]

Answer: B

The forklift is doing positive work on the object because the direction of force and the direction of motion are the same. The force of gravity is doing negative work on the object because it is acting opposite to the direction of motion. 

Explanation: The work done in lifting an object up is positive when the direction of the displacement and the force applied are in the same direction.

The work will be negative if force and direction of the motion are opposite to each other.

Also, force of gravity is considered positive when an object is moving toward the gravity. That is coming downward. Otherwise, it's negative when it's moving in the opposite direction.

When a forklift raises an object, the forklift is doing positive work on the object because the direction of force and the direction of motion are the same. The force of gravity is doing negative work on the object because it is acting opposite to the direction of motion.
