If a mountain goat starts a rock slide and the rocks crash down the slope 100 m. If the rocks reach the bottom in 5 s, then the acceleration of the rock would be 8 meters/second².

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object.

As given in the problem a mountain goat starts a rock slide and the rocks crash down the slope 100 m. If the rocks reach the bottom in 5 s,

initial velocity of rock = 0 m/s

displacement = 100 meters

time = 5 seconds

s = ut + 0.5at²

100 = 0 + 12.5a

a = 100/12.5

  = 8 meters/second²

Thus, the acceleration of the rock would be 8 meters/second².

Suppose that a car traveling to the west (-x direction) begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Which statement co
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Its acceleration is positive

Explanation:

As the car is moving in the negative x-direction than after applying brake then there will be a decrease in the acceleration but in the opposite direction.

As decreasing acceleration consider to be negative but the car is moving in negative direction which means increasing acceleration is negative by sign convention but by applying brake acceleration decrease but in opposite direction than it will give positive value of acceleration.

A butcher has a beam balance and masses 0.5kg and 2kg.How would he measure 1.5kg of meat on the balance at once
LekaFEV [45]

Answer and Explanation:

  • The butcher will balance the meat and the 0.5 kg mass on one side of the beam balance and 2 kg mass on the other side of the beam balance.
  • By so doing, when the beam balances then the amount of meat measured will be exactly 1.5 kg as required. Since the 1.5 kg meat and 0.5 kg mass is equivalent to the 2 kg on the other side of the beam balance.

Following are the different layers of the sun’s atmosphere. Rank them based on the order in which a probe would encounter them w
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Going from earth to the sun a probe would encounter the next layers in order:

  • Corona
  • Transition Region
  • Chromosphere
  • Photosphere
  • Convection Zone
  • Radiative Zone
  • Core

A brief description of them:

Corona is the outermost layer and it cannot  be seen with the naked eye, is starts at about 2100 km from the surface of the sun and it has no limit defined.

Transition Region is between the corona and the chromosphere, it has an extension of about 100km

The chromosphere is between 400 km from the surface of the sun to 2100 km. In this layer the further you get away from the sun it gets hotter.

The photosphere is the surface of the sun, the part that we can see, and extends from the surface to 400km.

The convection zone is where convection happens, hot gas rises, cools and rises again.

Radiative Zone is where the photons try to rise to move to higher layers.

The core of the Sun is where nuclear fusion occurs due to the very high temperatures.
