Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning)

Change in speed = (zero) minus (10 m/s) = negative 10 m/s

Acceleration = (-10 m/s) / (5 sec)

Acceleration of the Ferrari = -2 m/s²

Democratically, it doesn't have to be a Ferrari. If my 16-yr-old Dodge is going 10 m/s and stops in 5 sec, its acceleration would be the same number.

10 m/s divided by 5 s

-2m/s/s

minus - deceleration

About 65 million years ago an asteroid struck Earth in the area of the Yucatán Peninsula and wiped out the dinosaurs and many ot

9966 [12]

Answer:

$2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3$

29010.53917 m

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Density of asteroid = 2 g/cm³

V = Volume

d = Diameter = 10 km

r = Radius = $\dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{10}{2}=5\ km$

v = Velocity = 11 km/s

$H_v$ = Heat vaporization of water = $2.26\times 10^6\ J/kg$

$\Delta T$ = Change in temperature = 100-20

Mass is given by

$m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=\rho\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow m=2000\dfrac{4}{3}\times \pi\times 5000^3\\\Rightarrow m=1.0472\times 10^{15}\ kg$

The kinetic energy is

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}1.0472\times 10^{15}\times 11000^2\\\Rightarrow K=6.33556\times 10^{22}\ J$

Heat is given by

$Q=mc\Delta T+mH_v\\\Rightarrow 6.33556\times 10^{22}=m\times (4186\times (100-20)+2.26\times 10^6)\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{ 6.33556\times 10^{22}}{4186\times (100-20)+2.26\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow m=2.44156\times 10^{16}\ kg$

Mass of water is $2.44156\times 10^{16}\ kg$

Volume is $\dfrac{2.44156\times 10^{16}}{10^3}=2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3$

Amount of water is $2.44156\times 10^{13}\ m^3$

If it were a cube

$h=V^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow h=(2.44156\times 10^{13})^{\dfrac{1}{3}}\\\Rightarrow h=29010.53917\ m$

The height of the water would be 29010.53917 m

How can you increase the potential energy of a bouncing ball

ad-work [718]

Answer:

When you lift the ball, you are doing work to increase its gravitational potential energy. When you then release the ball, gravitational energy is transformed into kinetic energy as the ball falls. When the ball hits the floor, the ball's shape changes as it flattens against the floor.

Explanation:thats should be the way^^ in explaining

List three advantages of reflecting telescopes over refracting telescopes.

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Three advantages of Reflecting Telescope over refracting Telescope:

1. there is no chromatic aberration in the Reflecting Telescope being mirror as an objective, while Refracting Telescope can suffer chromatic aberration being using lenses.

2. image of Reflecting Telescope is brighter due to large, polished curved mirrors than Refracting Telescope

3. Reflecting Telescope is compact and portable in size than Refracting Telescope.
