Answer:

6 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 5 s

Acceleration (a) =..?

Acceleration is defined mathematically as:

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (v) /time (t)

a = v /t

With the above formula, we can obtain the acceleration of the object as follow:

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Time (t) = 5 s

Acceleration (a) =..?

a= v/t

a= 30/5

a = 6 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the object is 6 m/s² due East.

Answer:

The y-component of the car's position vector is 670m/s.

The x-component of the acceleration vector is -3, and the y-component is 40.

Explanation:

The displacement vector of the car with velocity

$\boldsymbol{v}= (-3t\boldsymbol{i}+2t^2\boldsymbol{j})m/s$

is the integral of the velocity.

Integrating $\boldsymbol{v}$ we get the displacement vector $\boldsymbol{d}$ :

$\boldsymbol{d}=(-\dfrac{3}{2}t^2\boldsymbol{i}+\dfrac{2}{3}t^3\boldsymbol{j} )$

Now if the initial position if the car is

$\boldsymbol{r}= (3.0\boldsymbol{i}+2.0\boldsymbol{j})$

then the displacement of the car at time $t$ is

$\boldsymbol{d(t)}= \boldsymbol{r+d}$

$\boxed{\boldsymbol{d(t)}=(-\dfrac{3}{2}t^2+3.0\boldsymbol{i}+\dfrac{2}{3}t^3+2.0\boldsymbol{j} )}$

Now at $t=10s$ , we have

$\boxed{\boldsymbol{d(t)}=(-147\boldsymbol{i}+670\boldsymbol{j} )}m$

The y-component of the car's position vector is 670m/s.

The acceleration vector is the derivative of the velocity vector:

$\boldsymbol{a(t)}=\dfrac{d\boldsymbol{v(t)}}{dt} =(-3\boldsymbol{i}+4t\boldsymbol{j})$

and at $t=10s$ it is

$\boldsymbol{a(t)}=(-3\boldsymbol{i}+40\boldsymbol{j})m/s^2$

The x-component of the acceleration vector is -3, and the y-component is 40.

Why is the overall charge on an atom neutral?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The overall charge on a neutral atom is zero.

A neutral atoms contains equal number of electrons and protons.The charge of a proton and electron is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. A proton has a charge of 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C and the charge of an electron is -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C. Thus in a neutral atom, the charge of all the protons gets cancelled with the charge of all the electrons.

Thus a neutral atom has a net zero charge.
