Answer:

The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.

Explanation:

Force is defined as push or pull

The force is said to be balance force if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.

The force are to be unbalanced force if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.

According to Newton second law of motion , acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.

F=ma

a= $\frac{F}{m}$

When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.

Using this formula Vj = V; + at, If a vehicle starts from rest

Furkat [3]

Answer:

The final speed of the vehicle is 36 m/s

Explanation:

Uniform Acceleration

When an object changes its velocity at the same rate, the acceleration is constant.

The relation between the initial and final speeds is:

$v_f=v_o+a.t$

Where:

vf = Final speed

vo = Initial speed

a = Constant acceleration

t = Elapsed time

The vehicle starts from rest (vo=0) and accelerates at a=4.5 m/s2 for t=8 seconds. The final speed is:

$v_f=0+4.5*8$

$v_f=36\ m/s$

The final speed of the vehicle is 36 m/s

an object 24.0 cm from a concave mirror creates a virtual image at -33.5 cm. if the image is 7.25 cm tall, what is the height of

Hitman42 [59]

The height of the object will be -5.19 cm

A concave mirror's reflecting surface curves inward and away from the light source. Light is reflected inward to a single focus point via concave mirrors. Concave mirrors, in contrast to convex mirrors, produce a variety of images depending on the object's to the mirror.

Given an object 24.0 cm from a concave mirror creates a virtual image at -33.5 cm. if the image is 7.25 cm tall

So let,

v = Image distance from the mirror = -33.5 cm

u = object distance from the mirror (concave) = 24 cm

hi = Image height = 7.25 cm

h = height of the object = ?

Using below formula to find height of the object

-v/u = hi/h

Putting all value in the formula we get

-(-33.5)/(-24) = 7.25/h

h = -5.19 cm

Therefore the height of the object will be -5.19 cm

A biologist looking through a microscope sees a bacterium at r⃗ 1=2.2i^+3.7j^−1.2k^μm(1μm=10−6m). After 6.2 s , it's at r⃗ 2=4.6

stiv31 [10]

The Average velocity for the bacterium is 0.75 unit/sec.

Explanation:

The given values are in the vector form

Where,

dS = distance covered

dT = time interval

Now, to calculate distance covered, we have

$|d S|=\sqrt{d S^{2}}$

$d S=r_{2}-r_{1}$

d S=(4.6 i+1.9 k)-(2.2 i+3.7 j - 1.2 k)

d S=(4.6-2.2) i+(0-3.7) j+(1.9+1.2) k

d S=2.4 i-3.7 j+3.1 k

Now, putting these values in the standard formula to evaluate the average velocity, we get;

$v_{a v g}=\frac{|\mathrm{d} S|}{d T}$

$v(a v g)=\frac{|\sqrt{\left\{\left(2.4^{2}\right)+\left(3.7^{2}\right)+\left(3.1^{2}\right)\right\}}|}{7.2}$

As dT=7.2 sec

Now,

Solving the equation, we get;

$v(a v g)=\frac{5.390732789}{7.2}$

$\begin{aligned}&v(a v g)=\frac{5.39}{7.2}\\&v(a v g)=0.748611111\\&v(a v g)=0.75 \text { units / sec }\end{aligned}$

Hence, the average velocity for the bacterium is 0.75 unit/sec.

Driving your Ferrari through the Italian countryside at a speedy 88 m/s, you approach an opera diva singing a high C (1,046 Hz).

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

You will hear the note E₆

Explanation:

We know that:

Your speed = 88m/s

Original frequency = 1,046 Hz

Sound speed = 340 m/s

The Doppler effect says that:

$f' = \frac{v \pm v0 }{v \mp vs}*f$

Where:

f = original frequency

f' = new frequency

v = velocity of the sound wave

v0 = your velocity

vs = velocity of the source, in this case, the source is the diva, we assume that she does not move, so vs = 0.

Replacing the values that we know in the equation we have:

$f' = \frac{340 m/s + 88m/s}{340 m/s} *1,046 Hz = 1,316.73 Hz$

This frequency is close to the note E₆ (1,318.5 Hz)
