Acceleration Practice

Physics
2 answers:
Trava [24]2 years ago

Answer:

0.85 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time. In mathematically, it can be expressed as:

\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{\vec v_2 - \vec v_1}{t_2-t_1}}

Our final velocity is given to be 17 m/s in 20 seconds. Initial velocity is at starting point which is 0 m/s in 0 second. Therefore:

\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{17-0}{20-0}}\\\\\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{17}{20}}\\\\\displaystyle{\vec{a} = \dfrac{\Delta \vec{v}}{\Delta t} = 0.85 \ \, \sf{m/s^2}}

Therefore, the acceleration of a horse from starting point to 17 m/s in 20 seconds is 0.85 m/s²

Answer:

0.85 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration = (final velocity - starting velocity) / time

Final velocity = 17

Starting velocity = 0

Time = 20

1. Substitute:

Acceleration = (starting velocity - final velocity) / time --> Acceleration = ( 17 - 0) / 20

2. Solve:

Acceleration = ( 17 - 0) / 20 -->

Acceleration = 0.85

Which physical phenomena is responsible for the earth’s sky appearing blue? scattering reflection dispersion refraction
klio [65]

Answer:  Scattering reflection

Sunlight reaches earth's atmosphere and is scattered in all directions by all the gasses and particles in the air. Blue light is seen more than others because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.

Did you think about this over Christmas? I did (-: Before Christmas a 65kg student consumes 2500 Cal each day and stays at the s
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

a)  Em = 332.8 J , b) # jump = 13, c)   It is reasonable since there are not too many jumps , d) lower the calories consumed

Explanation:

a) Let's use energy conservation

Initial. On the floor

             Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final. The highest point

             Emf = U = m g h

Energy is conserved

             Em₀ = Emf

             ½ m v² = m g h

             h = ½ v² / g

            h = ½ 3.2² /9.8

            h = 0.52 m

b) When he was at home he maintained his weight with 2500 cal / day. In his parents' house he consumes 3500 cal / day, the excess of calories is

            Q = 3500 -2500 = 1000cal / day

Let's reduce this value to the SI system

             Q = 1000 cal (4,184 J / 1 cal) = 4186 J / day

Now the energy in each jump is

               Em = K = ½ m v²

               Em = ½ 65 3.2²

               Em = 332.8 J

They indicate that the body can only use 25% of this energy

              Em effec = 0.25 332.8 J

              Em effec = 83.2 J

This is the energy that burns the body

Let's use a Proportion Rule (rule of three), if a jump spends 83.2J how much jump it needs to spend 1046 J

              # jump = 1046 J (1 jump / 83.2 J)

              # jump = 12.6 jumps / day

              # jump = 13  

c) It is reasonable since there are not too many jumps

d) That some days consume more vegetables to lower the calories consumed

A child weighing 200 N is being held back in a swing by a horizontal force of 125 N, as shown in the image. What is the tension
mixer [17]

Answer:

75

Explanation:

i am not sure but if 200N boy is being held back then the force that's holding him back must be equal to or greater than his weight. if 125N is already exerted then the tension will be:

T=200-125

= 75
