1. The time taken for the car to reach a velocity of 60 m/s is 8.57 s
2. The distance travelled during the time is 257.14 m
<h3>What is acceleration? </h3>
The acceleration of an object is defined as the rate of change of velocity which time. It is 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
1. How to determine the time
- Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
- Acceleration (a) = 7 m/s²
- Final velocity (v) = 60 m/s
- Time (t) =?
a = (v – u) / t
Thus,
t = (v – u) / a
t = (60 – 0) / 7
t = 8.57 s
2. How to determine the distance
- Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
- Acceleration (a) = 7 m/s²
- Final velocity (v) = 60 m/s
- Distance (s) = ?
v² = u² + 2as
60² = 0² + (2 × 7 × s)
3600 = 0 + 14s
3600 = 14s
Divide both sides by 14
s = 3600 / 14
s = 257.14 m

Answer:
electrons exist in specified energy levels
Explanation:
In its gold-foil scattering with alpha particles, Rutherford proved that the plum-pudding model of the atom theorised by Thomson was wrong.
From his experiment, Rutherford inferred that the atom actually consists of a very small nucleus, where all the positive charge is concentrated, and the rest of the atom is basically empty, with the electrons (negatively charged) orbiting around the nucleus at very large distance.
However, Rutherford did not specify anything about the orbits of the electrons. Later, Bohr predicted that the electrons actually orbit the nucleus in specific orbits, each orbit corresponding to a specific energy level. Bohr's model found confirmation in the observation of the emission spectrum lines: when an electron in one of the higher energy level jumps down into an orbit with lower energy, the atom emits a photon which has an energy exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two orbits (and this energy of the photon corresponds to a precise wavelength).
Distance between the two cars is increasing at the rate of 85 mph.
A passenger in Car-1 says that he is at rest in his own frame of reference,
and Car-2 is moving away from him at 85 mph, toward the west.
Answer:
The height of the cliff is 90.60 meters.
Explanation:
It is given that,
Initial horizontal speed of the stone, u = 10 m/s
Initial vertical speed of the stone, u' = 0 (as there is no motion in vertical direction)
The time taken by the stone from the top of the cliff to the bottom to be 4.3 s, t = 4.3 s
Let h is the height of the cliff. Using the second equation of motion in vertical direction to find it. It is given by :



h = 90.60 meters
So, the height of the cliff is 90.60 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
The units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.
Explanation:
P² = a³ is the simplified version of Kepler's third law which governs the orbital motion of large bodies that orbit around a star. The orbit of each planet is an ellipse with the star at the focal point.
Therefore, if you square the year of each planet and divide it by the distance that it is from the star, you will get the same number for all the other planets.
Thus, the units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.
