2.25 m/s² of acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 26 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 5 seconds.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>
  • Acceleration is given as the ratio of velocity to time.
  • Mathematically, acceleration= velocity/time.
<h3>What is the acceleration required to increase the speed of a car from 26 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 5 seconds?</h3>
  • Here change in velocity of the car is 51-26= 25 mi/h.
  • As 1 mi/h = 0.45 m/s. So 25mi/h = 11.25 m/s.
  • Acceleration= (11.25m/s)/5s = 2.25 m/s².

Thus, we can conclude that the constant acceleration is 2.25 m/s².

(3) What is the weight of a 50-kg astronaut (a) on Earth (b) On the Moon ,(g=1.7m/s2), (c) on Mars (g=3.7m/s2) (d)in outer space
artcher [175]

Answer:

a) On Earth

490N

b) On the Moon

85N

c) On Mars

185N

d)in outer space traveling with constant velocity.

0

Explanation:

The weight is defined as:

W = mg (1)

Where m is the mass and g is the gravity

a) On Earth g = 9.8m/s^{2}

Then, equation 1 can be used:

W = (50Kg)(9.8m/s^{2})

W = 490Kg.m/s^{2}

but 1N = Kg.m/s^{2}

W = 490N

Hence, the weight of the astronaut on Earth is 490N

b) On the Moon g = 1.7m/s^{2}

W = (50Kg)(1.7m/s^{2})

W = 85N

Hence, the weight of the astronaut on the Moon is 85N

c) On Mars g = 3.7m/s^{2}

W = (50Kg)(3.7m/s^{2})

W = 185N

Hence, the weight of the astronaut on Mars is 185N

(d) in outer space traveling with constant velocity.

Tanking into consideration that the astronaut is traveling in outer space at a constant velocity, it can be concluded that the acceleration will be zero.

Remember that the acceleration is defined as:

a = \frac{v_{f} - v_{i}}{t}

Since the acceleration is the variation of the velocity in a unit of time.

Therefore, from equation 1 is gotten.      

W = (50kg)(0)

Remember that g is the acceleration that a body experience as a consequence of the gravitational field.

 

W = 0
