A student made the following observations about a squirrel’s movements:
dalvyx [7]

The correct option is <u>D</u>.

Qualitative observations are observations that are made using our senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and feel. These observations do not involve numbers or measurements of any kind.

The student's observations regarding the squirrel as is mentioned in options A, B and C involve measurements. Therefore these are not qualitative observations.

Option D, however, is made on the basis of sight, where the student observes the squirrel moving in a zigzag manner.

Therefore, of all the three observations, the student's observation that the squirrel ran in a zigzag pattern is the qualitative observation.

A bus accelerates to 60 m/s to the east in 10 s. What is the buses acceleration? 2. A car traveling at 10.0 m/s to the west acce
professor190 [17]

Answers:

1) a=6\frac{m}{s^{2}}

2) t=8s

Explanation:

1) Acceleration a is defined as the variation of Velocity V in time t :  

a=\frac{V}{t}  (1)

A body also has acceleration when it changes its direction.

In this case we have a bus with a velocity of 60m/s to the east, that accelerates in a time 10s. So, we have to find the bus's acceleration:

a=\frac{60m/s}{10s}  (2)

a=6m/s^{2}  (3)  This is the bus's accelerration

2) Now we have a car that accelerates 2m/s^{2}  to the west in order to reach a speed of 16m/s in the same direction, and we have to find the time t it takes to the car to reach that velocity.

Therefore we have to find  t from (1):

t=\frac{V}{a}  (4)

t=\frac{16m/s}{2m/s^{2}}  (5)

Finally:

t=8s  (6)
