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.

Answer:

The speed it reaches the bottom is

$v=6.51m/s$

Explanation:

Given: $m=5.0kg$ , $r=47cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.47m$

Using the conservation of energy theorem

$U_i=K_E+K_{ER}$

$m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2+\frac{1}{2}*I*w^2$

$v=r*w$ , $I=\frac{1}{2}*m*r^2$

$m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*(r*w)^2 +\frac{1}{2}*[\frac{1}{2} *m*r^2]*w^2$

$m*g*h=\frac{3}{4}*m*r^2*w^2$

$g*h=\frac{3}{4}*r^2*w^2$

Solve to w'

$w^2=\frac{4*g*h}{3*r^2}$

$h=x*sin(30)=6.5m*sin(30)=3.25m$

$w=\sqrt{\frac{4*9.8m/s^2*3.25m}{3*(0.235m)^2}}$

$w=27.74rad/s$

$v=27.74rad/s*0.235m=6.51m/s$

Help yet again :) A hockey player is skating on the ice at 15km/h. He shoots the puck at 138 km/h according to a radar gun on th

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

speed of puck acc. to the radar gun = 138 km/h

speed of player = 15 km/h

since the player is in motion when he shoots, the speed of the puck will be the sum of the speed of the player and the speed at which he shot. so,

speed of puck = speed of player + speed of puck acc. to player

138 = 15 + speed of puck acc. to player

speed of puck acc. to player = 138 -15

speed of puck acc. to player = 123 km/h
