What is the acceleration of an object that goes from 45m/s to 10 m/s in 5 seconds?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= -7 \ m/s^2}}$

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

$a= \frac {v_f-v_i}{t}$

The object accelerates from 45 meters per second to 10 meters per second in 5 seconds. Therefore,

$v_f=10 \ m/s \\v_i= 45 \ m/s \\t= 5 \ s$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$a= \frac{ 10 \ m/s - 45 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Solve the numerator.

$a= \frac { -35 \ m/s}{5 \ s}$

Divide.

$a= -7 \ m/s/s$

$a= -7 \ m/s^2$

The acceleration of the object is -7 meters per square second. The acceleration is negative because the object's velocity decreases and the object slows down.

) A satellite of mass m has an orbital period T when it is in a circular orbit of radius R around the earth. If the satellite in

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

A) T.

Explanation:

Kepler's third law states that the orbital period (T) of a satellite is related with the radius (R) and the mass of the object (M) it orbits:

$T=\frac{2\pi R^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\sqrt{GM}}$

So the orbital period is independent of the mass of the satellite, that means no matter the mass every satellite at a radius R around the earth have an orbital period A.

Vladimir [108]

24-15=9 m/s slower in 12 seconds. So 9/12 m/s² slower. Therefore the acceleration is -0,75 m/s²

The y component of a vector is 36, and the angle between the vector and the x axis is 27 what is the magnitude of the vector

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Magnitude of Vector = 79.3

Explanation:

When a vector is resolved into its rectangular components, it forms two vector components. These components are named as x-component and y-component, they are calculated by the following formulae:

x-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Cos θ)

y-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin θ)

where,

θ = angle of the vector with x-axis = 27°

Therefore, using the values in the equation of y-component, we get:

36 = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin 27°)

Magnitude of Vector = 36/Sin 27°

Magnitude of Vector = 79.3
