The cheetah's rate of acceleration is 10 m/s².Option A is correct.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The rate of velocity change concerning time is known as acceleration.

Given data;

Initial velocity, u= 0 m/s

Final velocity, v= 25 m/s

Time elapsed, t = 2.5 seconds.

To find ;

Acceleration, a

The acceleration when the change in velocity is observed by the formula as:

$\rm a= \frac{v-u}{t}$

Substitute the given values:

$\rm a= \frac{25-0}{2.5} \\\\ a= 10 \ m/s^2$

The cheetah's rate of acceleration is 10 m/s²

Hence option A is correct.

You’ve made the finals of the science Olympics. As one of your tasks you’re given 1.0 g of copper and asked to make a cylindrica

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Length = 2.92 m

Diameter = 0.11 mm

Explanation:

We have $m = dl D \ \ \& \ \ \ R = \frac{\rho l}{A}$ , where:

$l$ is the length

$m = 1.0 g = 1 \times 10^{-3} \ kg\\R = 1.3 \ \Omega\\\rho = 1.7 \times 10^{-8} \Omega m\\d = 8.96 \ g/cm^3 = 8960 kg/m^3$

We divide the first equation by the second equation to get:

$\frac{m}{R} = \frac{d A^2}{\rho}$

$A^2 = \frac{m \rho}{dR} \\\\A^2 = \frac { 1 \times 10^{-3} \times 1.7 \times 10^{-8}}{8960 \times 1.3}\\\\A^2 = 1.5 \times 10^{-15}\\\\ A= 3.8 \times 10^{-8} \ m^2$

Using this Area, we find the diameter of the wire:

$D = \sqrt{\frac{4A}{\pi}}$

$D = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times 3.8 \times 10^{-8} }{\pi}}$

$D = 0.00011 \ m = 1.1 \times 10^ {-4} = 0.11 \ mm$

To find the length, we multiply the two equations stated initially:

$mR = d\rho l^2\\\\l^2 = \frac{mR}{d\rho} \\\l^2 = \frac {1.0 \times 10^{-3} \times 1.3}{8960 \times 1.7\times 10^{-8}}$

$l^2 = 8.534\\l = 2.92 \ m$

a 45 kg ice skater initially skating at a velocity of 3 m/s speeds up to a velocity of 5 m/s. calculate the difference in the ma

ad-work [718]

Answer: 90 kgm/s

Explanation:

The momentum (linear momentum) $p$ is given by the following equation:

$p=m.V$

Where:

$m=45 kg$ is the mass of the skater

$V$ is the velocity

In this situation the skater has two values of momentum:

Initial momentum: $p_{1}=m.V_{1}$

Final momentum: $p_{2}=m.V_{2}$

Where:

$V_{1}=3 m/s$

$V_{1}=5 m/s$

So, if we want to calculate the difference in the magnitude of the skater's momentum, we have to write the following equation(assuming the mass of the skater remains constant):

$p=p_{2}-p_{1}=m.V_{2}-m.V_{1}$
