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

If the price of gasoline at a particular station in Europe is 5 euros per liter. An American student in Europe is allowed to use
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Number of gallons =2 gallon

Explanation:

given data:

rate of gasoline ineurope = 5 euro per liter

total money to buy gasoline =  40 euro

total gasoline an american can buy in europe = \frac{40}{5}

= 8 litres of gasoline

As given in the question 1 ltr is 1 quarts therefore  

Total no. of quarts is 8 quarts

As from question 4 quarts is equal to one gallon, hence

Number of gallons= \frac{8}{4} = 2 gallon

How much electrical energy is used by the river cooker oven rated 800 W ,230 V is switched on for 30 minutes
mariarad [96]

Answer:

E = 1440 kJ

Explanation:

It is given that,

Power of a cooker oven is 800 W

Voltage at which it is operated is 230 V

Time, t = 30 minutes = 1800 seconds

We need to find the electrical energy used by the cooker oven. The product of power and time is equal to the energy consumed. So,

E=P\times t\\\\E=800\ W\times 1800\ s\\\\E=1440000\ J\\\\\text{or}\\\\E=1440\ kJ

So, electrical energy of 1440 kJ is consumed by the cooker oven.

You are running at a speed of 10km/h and hit a patch of mud. Two seconds later you speed is 8km/h. What is your acceleration in
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

0.28 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time interval

In this problem:

u = 10 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=2.78 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 8 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}= 2.22 m/s is the final velocity

t = 2 s is the time

Substituting, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{2.78-2.22}{2}=0.28 m/s^2
