Answer:

Correct answer: t = 2.86 seconds

Explanation:

We first use this formula

V² - V₀² = 2 a d    

where V is the final velocity (speed), V₀ the initial velocity (speed),

a the acceleration and d the distance.

We will calculate the acceleration from this formula

a = (V² - V₀²) / (2 d) = (2.5² - 1²) / (2 · 5) = (6.25 - 1) / 10 = 5.25 / 10

a = 0.525 m/s²

then we use this formula

V = V₀ + a t  => t = (V - V₀) / a = (2.5 - 1) / 0.525 = 1.5 / 0.525 = 2.86 seconds

t = 2.86 seconds

A car is moving in the positive direction along a straight highway and accelerates at a constant rate while going from point A t
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The time where the avergae speed equals the instaneous speed is T/2

Explanation:

The velocity of the car is:

v(t) = v0 + at

Where v0 is the initial speed and a is the constant acceleration.

Let's find the average speed. This is given integrating the velocity from 0 to T and dividing by T:

v_{ave} = \frac{1}{T}\int\limits^T_0 {v(t)} \, dt

v_ave = v0+a(T/2)

We can esaily note that when <u><em>t=T/2</em></u><u><em> </em></u>

v(T/2)=v_ave

Now we want to know where the car should be, the osition of the car is:

x(t) = x_A + v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Where x_A is the position of point A. Therefore, the car will be at:

<u><em>x(T/2) = x_A + v_0 (T/2) + (1/8)aT^2</em></u>

Which tem decorbes the perceived frequency of a sound wave?
JulsSmile [24]

Pitch

Explanation:

The pitch of a sound wave is the perceived frequency of a sound wave.

The quality of sound that makes it discernible to the ear is the pitch.

  • Sound wave is a longitudinal wave that is transmitted by series of rarefaction and compression.
  • Pitch helps to distinguish between the different sound qualities.
  • Pitch is how high or low sound is perceived.

True since coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

<h3>What is the coulombs law ?</h3>

coulombs formula is given by

F=  \dfrac{K\times q_{1} \times q_{2}}{r^{2} }

Now it states that if two charged particles are separated by the distance r and having same or opposite charge will attract or repel each other.

The intensity of the force depend upon the distance and the nature of the charge.

Hence coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

To know more about coulomb's law follow
