Answer:

a) 0 m/s

b) - 24 m/s

c)  - 68 m

Explanation:

Given:

Initial distance = - 4 m

Initial velocity, u = 4 m/s

1) acceleration, a = - 2 m/s² for time, t = 2 seconds

thus,

velocity after 2 seconds will be

from Newton's equation of motion

v = u + at

v = 4 + (-2) × 2

v = 0 m/s

2) Velocity after 2 second is the initial velocity for this case

given acceleration = - 6 m/s² for 4 seconds

thus,

final velocity, v = 0 + ( - 6 ) × 4 = - 24 m/s

here the negative sign depicts the velocity in opposite direction to the initial direction of motion

thus, velocity after 6 seconds = - 24 m/s

3) Now,

Total displacement in 6 seconds

= Displacement in 2 seconds + Displacement in 4 seconds

From Newton's equation of motion

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where,  

s is the distance

u is the initial speed  

a is the acceleration

t is the time

thus,

= 0\times2+\frac{1}{2}\times(-2)\times2^2  + 0\times4+\frac{1}{2}\times-6\times4^2

= - 16 - 48

= - 64 m

Hence, the final displacement = - 64 - 4 = - 68 m

A 1,70 atm, una muestra de gas ocupa 4,25 litros. Si la presión en el gas aumenta a 2.40 atm, ¿cuál será el nuevo volumen?
statuscvo [17]

At 1.70 atm, a gas sample occupies 4.25 liters. If the pressure in the gas increases to 2.40 atm, what will the new volume be?

Answer:

3.01L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial pressure, P1  = 1.7atm

Initial volume, V1  = 4.25L

Final pressure, P2  = 2.4atm

Unknown:

Final or new volume, V2  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes, if the temperature is constant".

            P1 V1  = P2 V2

P1 is the initial pressure

V1 is the initial volume

P2 final pressure

V2 final volume

        1.7 x 4.25  = 2.4 x V2

             V2  = 3.01L

We humans are on track to increase the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere so that the concentration in the future more than double
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Rapid increase in the temperature of the earth.

Explanation:

CO2 is known as a greenhouse gas. It is able to trap and retain infrared radiation in the earths atmosphere thereby causing a gradual rise in the temperature of the earth. If this doubled concentration of CO2 is sustained over a long period of time, it will eventually lead to melting of polar ice caps and consequent flooding. Gradually, the earth would be destroyed due to the scorching heat and attendant flood.

What happens in a tug of war if the net forces are balanced and why?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Balanced forces are responsible for unchanging motion. Balanced forces are forces where the effect of one force is cancelled out by another. A tug of war, where each team is pulling equally on the rope, is an example of balanced forces. The forces exerted on the rope are equal in size and opposite in direction.

The driving force behind an efficient supply chain is __________.
Doss [256]
Customer satisfaction is considered to be the "driving force" in order to achieve an efficient supply chain. An efficient supply chain takes place when the organization, or the company itself, meets with the demands of the consumers to improve and provides services that satisfies the people.
