Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hour miles/hou

r in 2.22 s s starting from rest. Assuming that they have constant acceleration throughout that time, find their acceleration in meters per second squared.

Answer:

a = 10.07m/s^2

Their acceleration in meters per second squared is 10.07m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time

a = ∆v/t

Given;

∆v = 50.0miles/hour - 0

∆v = 50.0miles/hours × 1609.344 metres/mile × 1/3600 seconds/hour

∆v = 22.352m/s

t = 2.22 s

So,

Acceleration a = ∆v/t = 22.352m/s ÷ 2.22s

a = 10.07m/s^2

Their acceleration in meters per second squared is 10.07m/s^2

<h2>Answer:</h2>

10.1m/s²

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<em>Using one of the equations of motion as follows;</em>

v = u + at       ----------------------(i)

where;

v = final velocity of the body (Cheetahs) = 50.0 miles/hour

u = initial velocity of the body = 0 (since they start running from rest)

a = acceleration/deceleration

t = time taken for the motion = 2.22s

<em>First convert the final velocity (v) from miles/hour to m/s</em>

Remember that;

1 mile = 1609.34m

1 hour = 60 x 60s = 3600s

Therefore;

50miles/hour = \frac{50miles}{1 hour} = \frac{50*1609.34m}{3600s} = 22.35m/s

=> v = 22.35m/s

<em>Substituting the values of v, u and t into equation (i) gives;</em>

=> 22.35 = 0 + a (2.22)

=> 22.35 = 2.22a

=> a = \frac{22.35}{2.22} = 10.07m/s^{2}

=> a = 10.1m/s² (to 1 decimal place)

Therefore the acceleration in m/s² is 10.1

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Column 1 should be titled “Time,” and Column 2 should be titled

“Velocity.” ⇒ 1st answer

Explanation:

* <em>Lets revise some definitions of graphs</em>

A velocity-time graph represents the speed and direction an object

travels over a period of time.

Velocity-time graph is called speed-time graph.

The vertical axis of a velocity-time graph represents the velocity of the

object and horizontal axis represents the time from the initial position

In an acceleration time graph y-axis represents the acceleration, and

x-axis represents the time

The table represents the <em>speed of a car in a northern</em> direction over

several seconds

That means the data in the table represent the <em>velocity</em> of the car in a

certain time

Time (s)             Velocity (m/s)  

   0                            5

   2                            10

   4                            15

   6                            20

   8                            25

   10                           30

Column 1 would be on the x-axis

x-axis represents the time

Column 2 would be on the y-axis

y-axis represents the velocity

Column 1 should be titled “Time,” and Column 2 should be titled

“Velocity.”

A projectile is fired with a velocity of 45 m/s at an angle of 32°. What is the
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

To calculate adjacent of triangle use

\cos(32)  =  \frac{a}{45}

where 45 is the hypotenuse, and a is the adjacent side (horizontal component)

45 \cos(32)  = 38.16

then round to 38.2

How much heat is released as a 5.89 kg block of aluminum cools from 462 °C to 315 °C. The specific heat capacity of aluminum is
s2008m [1.1K]
Mass, m = 5890g
Change in temperature, θ = Final_temperature - Initial_temperature
= 315 - 462°C
= -147°C

Specific heat capacity of aluminum, c = 0.900 J/(g*K) 
=mcθ
=5890g x 0.900 J/(g*K) x -147°C
=-779,247j

Answer would be C.
