Answer:
A. Speed
Explanation:
A vector quantity is a quantity which has both magnitude and direction. Here in the given options, speed is a scalar quantity but not the vector quantity.
The answer is B because if you use process of elimination, you find that A is invalid because Venus is the second planet. C is out because Mars is the 4th planet. D is out because we are nowhere near the Andromeda Galaxy. We are millions of light years away.
Answer:
a = (v2 - v1) / t
From A to B (8 - 4) m/s / 1 s = 4 m / s^2
From A to D ( 7 - 4) m/s / 5 s = .6 m / s^2
Note these equations hold for "uniform" values
They say nothing about the acceleration at intermediate points - the equation just says that his average speed increased from 4 m/s to 7 m/s during a 5 sec period
Answer:
Explanation:
a )
Time to reach the speed of 20 m/s with an acceleration of 2 m/s² can be calculated as follows .
v = u + a t
20 = 0 + 2 t
t = 20 /2 = 10 s .
Total time = 10 s + 20 s + 5 s = 35 s .
b) Average velocity = Total distance travelled / total time
Distance travelled in first 10 s
S₁ = ut + 1/2 a t²
= 0 + .5 x 2 x 10²
= 100 m
Distance travelled in next 20 s
S₂= 20s x 20 m/s = 400 m
Distance travelled in last 5 s .
deceleration in last 5 s
v = u + at
0 = 20 m/s + a x 5
a = - 4 m/s²
v² = u² - 2 a s
0 = (20 m/s)² - 2 x 4 m/s² x s
s = 50 m
S₃ = 50 m
Total distance = S₁ + S₂ + S₃
= 100 m + 400 m + 50 m
= 550 m .
Average velocity = 550 m / 35 s
= 15.71 m /s .
The width of the playroom is 4 m
