A train slows from 60m/s to 20m/s in 50s

Physics

Answer:

a = -4/5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

a = (20 m/s - 60 m/s) / 50 s

a = -40 m/s / 50 s

a = -4/5 m/s^2

hope this helps! <3

Answer:

<u>- 4/5 m/s^2 </u>

Explanation:

It is going from 60 to 20 m/s   so ACCELERATION is negative

   acceleration = change in velocity / time

                          = -40 m/s / 50 s =  <u>- 4/5 m/s^2 </u>

Calculate the change in velocity of a 0.070kg tennis ball hit by Serena with a force of 140 N over 0.020 s
Brilliant_brown [7]
V=at and a=F/m

140/.070 = 2000m/s^2

2000*.020 = 40m/s

The ball’s velocity increased by 40m/s.

two cars start at the same point and drive in a straight line for 5km. At the end of the drive their distances are the same but
Anna11 [10]

A 'displacement' always consists of a magnitude and a direction.  The two cars you just described have displacements with the same magnitude ... 5 km.  But if they didn't both drive in the same direction, then their displacements are different.

Remember:

-- 10 m/s² up and 10 m/s² down are different accelerations

-- 30 mph East and 30 mph West are the same speed but different velocity.

-- 5 km North and 5 km South are the same distance but different displacement.

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Explanation:18kt alloy contains

i) 75% of gold

rhogold=19.3g/cm^3

=75/100×19.3

=14.475g/cm^3

ii) 16% of silver

rhosilver=10.5g/cm^3

=16/100×10.5

=1.68g/cm^3

iii) 9% of copper

rhocopper =8.90g/cm^3

=9/100×8.9

=0.801g/cm^3

Overall density of 18kt gold

=(0.801+1.68+14.475)g/cm^3

=16.956g/cm^3

=17g/cm^3 to 3s.f
