Is constant velocity same as constant acceleration?​

Physics
2 answers:
irakobra [83]2 years ago

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.

An electric device, which heats water by immersing a resistance wire in the water, generates 50 cal of heat per second when an e
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

0.69 ohm

Explanation:

Heat generated per second, H = 50 cal/s

Potential difference, V = 12 V

Let R is the resistance of coil.

The formula for the heat is given by

H = \frac{V^{2}}{R}t

50\times 4.186 = \frac{12^{2}}{R}\times 1

R = 0.69 ohm

A toy car has an initial acceleration of 2 m/s" across a horizontal surface after it is released from rest. After the car travel
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Closed system, because the speed of the car is as expected in the case where an object has uniform acceleration for a time t

Explanation:

Here in the question it is mentioned that a toy car has an initial acceleration of 2m/s²  across a horizontal surface so we can say that it is acted upon by an external force

Assuming that the acceleration is constant and the reason for this assumption is there at the last

The major difference between an open system and closed system is in case of open system there will be transfer of matter and in case of closed system there will be no change in matter of the system

If acceleration is constant in case of closed system we can expect the speed of the car after a time t by using the formula

  s = u×t + 0·5×a×t²

where s is the distance travelled

t is the time taken to travel that distance

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration of that system

But in case of open system as there will be a change of mass there will be a change in velocity of the system so in this case we cannot expect the speed of the car after a time t

And if the acceleration is not constant then we cannot say that the toy car is an open system or closed system, that is why we are assuming that the acceleration of the toy car is constant

By how much does the gravitational potential energy of a 54-kg pole vaulter change if her center of mass rises about 4.0 m durin
kodGreya [7K]
<span>the gravational potential energy of anything on the ground is zero. When calculating potential energy you take height in meters and multiply it by the mass of the object in kilograms and the acceleration of gravity to get a new unit called Joules. Any object at ground level has a potential energy of zero newtons becuase anything multiplied by zero is zero. An object with mass of 54 kg, 4 meters above the ground has a gravitatinal potential energy of 2116.8 Joules.</span>

What are all stars made of
ivolga24 [154]
Stars are huge celestial bodies made mostly of hydrogen and helium that produce light and heat from the churning nuclear forges inside their cores. Aside from our sun, the dots of light we see in the sky are all light-years from Earth. They are the building blocks of galaxies, of which there are billions in the universe. It’s impossible to know how many stars exist, but astronomers estimate that in our Milky Way galaxy alone, there are about 300 billion.
