An elevator is moving upward with a speed of 9.2 m/s. 3.8 seconds later, the elevator is still moving upward, but its speed has

increased to 15.8 m/s. What is the average acceleration, in m/s2, of the elevator during the 3.8-s interval? Please round your answer to one decimal place.

From the calculations, the acceleration of the elevator is obtained as 1.5m/s^2

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The term acceleration has to do with the rate of change of velocity with time.

Given that;

u =  9.2 m/s

v = 15.8 m/s

t = 3.8

a = ?

The v = u + at

a = v - u/t

a = 15 - 9.2/3.8

a = 1.5m/s^2

Colors seen on the cover of our physics book result from color is due to Subtraction.

What is physics of color subtraction?

  • Some visible spectrum wavelengths are intentionally removed during the subtraction procedure.
  • For instance, the yellow filter transmits the green and red colors while blocking the blue.
  • Red and blue are transmitted while the green is blocked by the magenta filter.
  • Blue and green are transmitted while red is blocked by the cyan filter.
  • Subtractive mixing gets its name from the fact that when colors are mixed, wavelengths are removed from what we see because each paint absorbs some of the wavelengths that the other paint reflects, leaving us with less wavelengths afterward.

Skater 1 has a mass of 105.0 kg and a velocity of 2.0 m/s to the left. He
mart [117]

The final velocity of skater 1 is 3.7 m/s to the right. The right option is O A. 3.7 m/s to the right.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

Velocity can be defined as the ratio of the displacement and time of a body.

To calculate the final velocity of Skater 1 we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • mu+MU = mv+MV............ Equation 1

Where:

  • m = mass of the first skater
  • M = mass of the second skater
  • u = initial velocity of the first skater
  • U = initial velocity of the second skater
  • v = final velocity of the first skater
  • V = final velocity of the second skater.

make v the subject of the equation.

  • v = (mu+MU-MV)/m................ Equation 2

Note: Let left direction represent negative and right direction represent positive.

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 105 kg
  • u = -2 m/s
  • M = 71 kg
  • U = 5 m/s
  • V = -3.4 m/s.

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • v = [(105×(-2))+(71×5)-(71×(-3.4))]/105
  • v = (-210+355+241.4)/105
  • v = 386.4/105
  • v = 3.68 m/s
  • v ≈ 3.7 m/s

Hence, the final velocity of skater 1 is 3.7 m/s to the right. The right option is O A. 3.7 m/s to the right.
