<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time.
We can find acceleration a, by the following formula

a=v-u/t

where,
v is the final velocity (in this question v=8.0 m/s)
u is the initial velocity (since the hamster starts from rest, u=0)
t is the time taken (i,e 3.0 second)
now by applying the formula we have,

a = 8.0 - 0 / 3
= 8 / 3
= 2.65 m/s</span>²<span> 

The acceleration is 2.65 meters per second squared</span>

What is the minimum force required to increase the energy of a car by 84 J over a distance of 38 m? Assume the force is constant
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

2.210N

Explanation:

Workdone = Force x distance

Distance = 38m , Workdone = 84J

Hence 84J = Force x 38m

Force = 84J / 38m

Force = 2.210N =2.2N

A toy car is moving across a table with a velocity of 7.0 m/s and drives off the end. The table is 1.8 m tall. How long will the
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Option D - 0.2 s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 7 m/s

Height of table; h = 1.8m

Now,since we want to find the time the car spent in the air, we will simply use one of Newton's equation of motion.

Thus;

h = ut + ½gt²

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

1.8 = 7t + ½(9.8)t²

4.9t² + 7t - 1.8 = 0

Using quadratic formula to find the roots of the equation gives us;

t = -1.65 or 0.22

We can't have negative t value, thus we will pick the positive one.

So, t = 0.22 s

This is approximately 0.2 s

Vilka [71]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. It is the difference in electrical potential that causes the electric charges to flow from one end of the battery to the other. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
