Answer:

Velocity is sometimes taken as speed but the rate of change of velocity is termed acceleration.

Explanation:

<u>Velocity:</u>

The rate of displacement of a body is called its velocity.

It's SI unit is metre per second. (ms^-1)

It is a vector quantity.

<u>Acceleration:</u>

The rate of change of velocity of a body is termed acceleration.

Its SI unit is metre per second square. (ms^-2)
It is a vector quantity.

Answer:

You may know that both velocity and acceleration have something to do with how fast an object moves. You’re right, but what’s the difference between these two terms in physics? Keep reading for more information about velocity, acceleration, and how to tell them apart.

If you are using a wrench to loosen a very stubborn nut, you can make the job easier by using a "cheater pipe." This is a piece

pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The cheater pipe extends the wrench in radial direction, providing a larger momentum for the force you exert.

For a given force the torque exerted with the cheater pipe is larger.

Mathematically we can write that

τ = r×F and τ'= r'×F

now since r'> r

⇒ F'>F

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

So the sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs is 110.32dB.

Explanation:

Given data

Sound intensity by factor =215

Sound intensity level =87 dB

To find

Sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs

Solution

First we need to find the new sound intensity level

$I_{n}=215(10^{\frac{87}{10} } )\\I_{n}=1.08*10^{11})$

The dB can be calculated as:

$dB=10log(I_{n})\\$

Substitute the given values

$dB=10log(1.08*10^{11})\\dB=110.32dB$

So the sound intensity level they would experience without the earplugs is 110.32dB.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

t = 106π / 30*2.1

Explanation:

$w_{i} = 1.06*10^{2}$ => 106

=> 106 x 2π/60

=> 106/30π

∝ = -2.1 rad/sec²

$w_{f}$ => 0

$w_{f}$ = $w_{i}$ + ∝t

∴ ( $w_{f}$ - $w_{i}$ ) / ∝ = t

t = 106π / 30*2.1

A spring with a spring constant of 350 N/m pulls a door closed. How much work is done as the spring pulls the door at a constant

german

The work done to stretch the spring will be 112 J.

<h3>What is spring force?</h3>

The force required to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance is known as the spring force. Its formula is

F = kx

The given data in the problem is;

F is the spring force =?

K is the spring constant= 8.5 N/m

x is the length by which spring got stretched = 1.2m

The work is done to stretch the spring is;

$\rm W= \frac{1}{2} kx^2 \\\\ W=\frac{1}{2} \times 350 \times (0.850-0.050)^2 \\\\ W=0.5 \times 350 \times (0.80)^2 \\\\W=112 \ J$
