A car travelling at 5.0 m/s starts to speed up. After 3.0 s its velocity has increased to 11 m/s. a) What is its acceleration? (

Assume it to be uniform.) b) What distance does it travel while speeding up?​

initially, the car is traveling at 5.0 m/s.

so, we know acceleration for changing velocity is :

a = (v-v_{o})/t ..........(i)

where v is the final velocity

v_{o} is the initial velocity

t is the time taken to change velocity

Now, as per the question :

initial velocity, v_{o}=5.0 m/s

final velocity, v =11 m/s

time taken, t = 3 s

putting the values in equation (i),

a = ( 11-5 )/3

a = 2 m/s²

Therefore, a, after 3 s, is  <em>2 m/s².</em>

The y component of a vector is 36, and the angle between the vector and the x axis is 27 what is the magnitude of the vector
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Magnitude of Vector = 79.3

Explanation:

When a vector is resolved into its rectangular components, it forms two vector components. These components  are named as x-component and y-component, they are calculated by the following formulae:

x-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Cos θ)

y-component of vector = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin θ)

where,

θ = angle of the vector with x-axis = 27°

Therefore, using the values in the equation of y-component, we get:

36 = (Magnitude of Vector)(Sin 27°)

Magnitude of Vector = 36/Sin 27°

<u>Magnitude of Vector = 79.3</u>

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 6.6 m/s in 6.5 s. Find the acceleration the car presents during this time?
Art [367]

Answer:

1.02 m/s²

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 6.6 m/s

Time (t) = 6.5 s

Acceleration (a) =.?

Acceleration can simply be defined as the change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

a = (v – u) / t

Where:

a is the acceleration.

v is the final velocity.

u is the initial velocity.

t is the time.

With the above formula, we can obtain the acceleration of the car as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 6.6 m/s

Time (t) = 6.5 s

Acceleration (a) =.?

a = (v – u) / t

a = (6.6 – 0) / 6.5

a = 6.6 / 6.5

a = 1.02 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 1.02 m/s²

Describe a situation in your everyday life where you could use the scientific method. List all the steps of the scientific metho
emmainna [20.7K]

Yes, scientific method can be applied on many everyday activities to get a reasonable solution. Infact normally we are applying this method without having it in our knowledge that we are applying it.

For example: In morning we are going to office and we start the car, but it is not started.You turn the engine again and again but it simply donot works.

Observation (the state of defining a problem):

The car is not started

Hypothesis (A possible solution based on the information we already know):

The car is not started because it might be out of gas or there can be some other technical fault.  

Experiment (testing of hypothesis by applying different methods of solving problem):

You get the fuel and put it inside the car but it still donot works and car didnot start. Experiment didnot get solution.

Analyze the results of data and test another hypothesis

You call a technician and he check with the car engine tries and finds out that the engine was out of order and needs repairing.

Draw conclusion:

The engine do not works when it is out of order and it is a cause of a car not being started.

<em>Now the theory and law making part can not be applied on this case but it is a part of scientific method.</em>

Hope it helps!
