The acceleration of the body is 2 m/s^2 while the deceleration is - 1.2 m/s^2.

<h3>What is the acceleration?</h3>

Let us recall that the acceleration is the change in the speed of a body with time. We have been told that the body accelerates for 3s and then decelerates to 2s. This implies that the total time that the object spent in motion is 5 s.

Thus;

v = u + at

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time taken

v - u/t = a

a = 6 - 0/3

= 2 m/s^2

Again;

v - u/t = a

a = 0 - 6/5

a = - 1.2m/s^2

When beavers inhabit an area, they cut down trees and construct beaver dams, which slow the flow of rivers or streams. Which of

Airida [17]

Answer: H

Explanation:

When beavers dam a stream they slow the movement of water. Behind the beaver dam, a pond of still water is formed. This pond is then colonized by animals and plants that typically live in lakes rather than streams.

38.4 mol of krypton is in a rigid box of volume 64 cm^3 and is initially at temperature 512.88°C. The gas then undergoes isobari

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Final volumen first process $V_{2} = 98,44 cm^{3}$

Final Pressure second process $P_{3} = 1,317 * 10^{10} Pa$

Explanation:

Using the Ideal Gases Law yoy have for pressure:

$P_{1} = \frac{n_{1} R T_{1} }{V_{1} }$

where:

P is the pressure, in Pa

n is the nuber of moles of gas

R is the universal gas constant: 8,314 J/mol K

T is the temperature in Kelvin

V is the volumen in cubic meters

Given that the amount of material is constant in the process:

$n_{1} = n_{2} = n$

In an isobaric process the pressure is constant so:

$P_{1} = P_{2}$

$\frac{n R T_{1} }{V_{1} } = \frac{n R T_{2} }{V_{2} }$

$\frac{T_{1} }{V_{1} } = \frac{T_{2} }{V_{2} }$

$V_{2} = \frac{T_{2} V_{1} }{T_{1} }$

Replacing : $T_{1} =786 K, T_{2} =1209 K, V_{1} = 64 cm^{3}$

$V_{2} = 98,44 cm^{3}$

Replacing on the ideal gases formula the pressure at this piont is:

$P_{2} = 3,92 * 10^{9} Pa$

For Temperature the ideal gases formula is:

$T = \frac{P V }{n R }$

For the second process you have that $T_{2} = T_{3}$ So:

$\frac{P_{2} V_{2} }{n R } = \frac{P_{3} V_{3} }{n R }$

$P_{2} V_{2} = P_{3} V_{3}$

$P_{3} = \frac{P_{2} V_{2}}{V_{3}}$

$P_{3} = 1,317 * 10^{10} Pa$

Acar accelerates from 4 meters/second to 16 meters/second in 4 seconds. The car's acceleration is

s2008m [1.1K]

To understand this question, you need to understand the concept of acceleration first. Have you ever been in a car and noticed that it was getting faster and faster? That "speeding up" of the car is known as acceleration! Acceleration is essentially the rate at which you speed up.

Okay, so we now know what acceleration is. What are its units? The unit of acceleration is the change in velocity over a period of time: $\frac{∆v}{t}$

If you haven't learned about velocity yet, just think about it as speed for now. The funny-looking triangle, ∆, is a symbol for "the change of." For example, if I started walking at 3 $\frac{feet}{second}$ then sped up to 5 $\frac{feet}{second}$ , then the change in my speed would be 2 $\frac{feet}{second}$ , because I started walking 2 $\frac{feet}{second}$ faster!

Okay, enough with all the explanations. Hopefully, you understand the units now. Let's take a look at the question. A car accelerates from 4 $\frac{meters}{second}$ to 16 $\frac{meters}{second}$ in 4 seconds. What would the acceleration be? Let's set up an equation:

a = $\frac{∆v}{t}$

a is the acceleration, ∆v is the change in velocity, and t is the time elapsed.

Now, let's plug in our values! ∆v is the change in velocity, and to find that we simply have to subtract 16 $\frac{meters}{second}$ by 4 $\frac{meters}{second}$ . That makes sense, right? Back to the equation.

a = $\frac{∆v}{t}$
a = $\frac{16-4}{4}$

(16 - 4 is the change in velocity, and 4 is the number of seconds the car was accelerating)

a = $\frac{12}{4}$

a = 3 ( $\frac{meters}{second^{2}}$ )

We have our answer! The car's acceleration is 3 meters per second^{2}.

(You might be thinking: Wait. Meters per second squared? The reason for that is because acceleration is the rate at which the speed increases! That makes the unit $\frac{\frac{meters}{second}}{second}$ , which can be simplified down to $\frac{meters}{second^{2} }$ )

Let me know if you need clarification on anything I explained here!
