Is constant velocity same as constant acceleration?​

Physics
2 answers:
irakobra [83]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No

Explanation:

constant velocity means zero acceleration because acceleration is rate of change of velocity. So when velocity remains constant there would be no acceleration.

in case of constant acceleration it means that velocity changes but with some consistent (same) amount each time. For example some object falling from tower, Velocity of the object will change(increases) by 9.8m/s for each second due to gravity of Earth. In this case there is change in velocity each second but with some consistent amount that is 9.8m/s.

No they are very different and are even measured in different units. Velocity is usually defined as “the rate of change of position with respect to time, whereas acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.”
Hope this helps. Have a good day.

What affects the amount of potential energy stored in the magnetic field when a magnet is moved against a magnetic force?
LekaFEV [45]

Answer: Strength of magnet and distance from magnetic material

Explanation:

The potential energy of a magnet is determined by the strength of the magnet and the distance between a magnet and another magnet or a magnetic material. Magnetic materials are materials that would be attracted when brought close to a magnet, example of magnetic materials are most metals.

Use the values from PRACTICE IT to help you work this exercise. Suppose the same two vehicles are both traveling eastward, the c
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

A. v_{3}=12.17m/s

B. v_{car}=6.3m/s\\v_{truck}=-6.3m/s

C. ΔK=-4.13x10^3J

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that the car and the truck are traveling eastward. I'm going to name the car 1 and the truck 2

v_{1}=5.79m/s\\m_{1}=102kg\\v_{2}=18.5m/s\\m_{2}=103kg

A. Since the two vehicles become entangled the final mass is:

m_{3}=102kg+103kg=205kg

From linear momentum we got that:

p_{1}=p_{2}

m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=m_{3}v_{3}

v_{3}=\frac{m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}}{m_{3} }=\frac{(102kg)(5.79m/s)+(103kg)(18.5m/s)}{(205kg)}

v_{3}=12.17m/s

B. The change in velocity of both vehicles are:

For the car

v_{car}=v_{f}-v_{o}=12.17m/s-5.79m/s=6.38m/s

For the truck

v_{truck}=12.17m/s-18.5m/s=-6.3m/s

C. The change in kinetic energy is:

ΔK=K_{2}-K_{1} =\frac{1}{2}m_{3}v_{3}^{2}-(\frac{1}{2}m_{1}v_{1}^{2}+\frac{1}{2}m_{2}v_{2}^{2})

ΔK=\frac{1}{2}(205)(12.17)^{2}-(\frac{1}{2}(102)(5.79)^{2}+\frac{1}{2}(103)(18.5)^{2})=-4.13x10^{3}J

ΔK=-4.13x10^{3}J

Water enters a cylindrical tank through two pipes at rates of 250 and 100 gal/min. If the level of the water in the tank remains
tester [92]

Answer:

The total amount of water that enters the tank is:

250 gal/min + 100 gal/min = 350gal/min.

Then, if the level of the water remains constant, this means that the water leaves the tank at a rate of 350gal/min.

We know that the diameter of the pipe is 8 inches, then the area of the pipe is:

A = pi*(d/2)^2 = 3.14*(4in)^2 = 50.24in^2

now, the flow can be calculated as:

Q = v*A = (velocity*area)

if we want to write our velocity in inches per minute, then we need to write the entering flow in cubic inches:

1 gallon = 231 in^3

then:

350gal/min = (350*231) in^3/min = 80,850 in^3/min.

Then the water that leaves the tank must be the same amoun, we have:

Q = 80,850 in^3/min. = v*A = v*50.24in^2

v =  (80,850in^3/min)/50.24in^2 = 1609.3 in/min.

The velocity of the flow leaving the tank is 1609.3 in/min.

A 65.0-Ω resistor is connected to the terminals of a battery whose emf is 12.0 V and whose internal resistance is 0.5 Ω. Calcula
Luda [366]

Answer:

a) 0.1832 A

b) 11.91 Volts

c) 2.18 Watt , 0.0168 Watt

Explanation:

(a)

R = external resistor connected to the terminals of the battery = 65 Ω

E = Emf of the battery = 12.0 Volts

r = internal resistance of the battery = 0.5 Ω

i = current flowing in the circuit

Using ohm's law

E = i (R + r)

12 = i (65 + 0.5)

i = 0.1832 A

(b)

Terminal voltage is given as

V_{ab} = i R

V_{ab} = (0.1832) (65)

V_{ab} = 11.91 Volts

(c)

Power dissipated in the resister R is given as

P_{R} = i²R

P_{R} = (0.1832)²(65)

P_{R} = 2.18 Watt

Power dissipated in the internal resistance is given as

P_{r} = i²r

P_{r} = (0.1832)²(0.5)

P_{r} = 0.0168 Watt
