Pls I need help I would mark you as the brainliest answer! A train starting from rest attains a velocity 72 km / h in 5 minutes.

Assuming that the acceleration is uniform, find the acceleration.

Here's all the Physics you have to know
in order to answer this question:

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

That's it.  Now let's work on it with the numbers from the train.

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

For the train, speed at the beginning is zero, so the change is 72 km/h .

Time for the change = 5 minutes.

Acceleration = (72 km/hr) / (5 minutes)

Acceleration = 14.4 km per hour per minute .

That answer is 100% true and correct, but it has a weird,
awkward unit.
Anybody you show it to would probably want to see it with
a more familiar unit, like "meters per second per second"
like the unit that we use for the acceleration of gravity.
It's pretty easy to change units, and it doesn't even take 
any Physics.  All it takes is Arithmetic.

So far, we have  Acceleration = 14.4 km/hr·minute

Multiply that by (1000 meter/km)
Then multiply it by (1 hour/60 minutes).
Then multiply it by (1 minute/60 seconds)².
All of these fractions are equal to ' 1 ', because each top number
is equal to each bottom number.  So they won't change the VALUE
of the answer.  They'll just change the units.

(14.4km/hr·minute)·(1000m/km)·(1 hour/60minutes)·(1 minute/60seconds)²

= (14.4·1000 / 60·60·60) · (km·meter·hr·min·min / hr·min·km·min·sec·sec) 

= 0.0667 meter/second²

With similar methods, it could be changed to other units:

-- 6.67 centimeter/second²
-- 66.7 millimeter/second²
-- 240 meter/minute²
-- 864 km/hour²

These are all THE SAME NUMBER, only with different units.

hooke's law is described mathematically using the formula fsp=-kx. which statement is correct about spring force, fsp? A. It is
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

A. It is always a positive force

Explanation:

Hooke's law describes the relation between an applied force and extension ability of an elastic material. The law states that provided the elastic limit, e, of a material is not exceeded, the force, F, applied is proportional to the extension, x, provided temperature is constant.

i.e F = - kx

where k is the constant of proportionality, and the minus sign implies that the force is a restoring force.

The applied force can either be compressing or stretching force.

Chemical weathering is greatest under conditions of
Pavel [41]
<h2>Answer: higher mean annual rainfall and temperatures. </h2>

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is the set of destructive processes through which rocky materials go trhough. These processes cause changes in the color, texture, composition, firmness and shape of the material.

It should be noted that this happens when the rocks come into contact with atmospheric agents such as oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Another important aspect is that rocks are able to break up more easily thanks to this type of weathering, since <u>the mineral grains within the rock lose adherence and dissolve better under the action of some physical agents</u>, such as <u>humidity (rainfall included) and temperature</u>.

Therefore:

Chemical weathering is greatest under conditions of <u>higher mean annual rainfall and temperatures. </u>

Answer:

Explanation:La ecuación de Van der Waals es una ecuación de estado de un fluido compuesto de partículas con un tamaño no despreciable y con fuerzas intermoleculares, como las fuerzas de Van der Waals. La ecuación, cuyo origen se remonta a 1873, debe su nombre a Johannes van der Waals, quien recibió el premio Nobel en 1910 por su trabajo en la ecuación de estado para gases y líquidos, la cual está basada en una modificación de la ley de los gases ideales para que se aproxime de manera más precisa al comportamiento de los gases reales al tener en cuenta su tamaño no nulo y la atracción entre sus partículas.
