Explanation :
It is given that, the driver accelerates from a stop sign, cruises for 20 s at a constant speed of 60 km/h, and then brakes to come to a stop 40 s after leaving the stop sign.
We know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Where
dv is the change in velocity, dv = 0 - 60 m/s = -60 m/s
dt is the change in time, dt = 40 s - 30 s = 10 s
So, 
From the graph it is clear that, from 30 s to 40 s the car is decelerating. So, at every second within this time the value of acceleration will be same i.e. 
.
Answer: 68852 millijoules = 16.46 calories
Explanation:
Given;
Convert 68852 millijoules to calories.
1 calorie = 4.184J = 4184millijoules
Therefore,
1 millijoule = 1/4184 calories
68852 millijoule = 68852 × 1/4184 calories
= 16.46 calories
Answer:
W = 0.842 J
Explanation:
To solve this exercise we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy
W = ΔK
In this case the kinetic energy at point A is zero since the system is stopped
W = K_f (1)
now let's use conservation of energy
starting point. Highest point A
Em₀ = U = m g h
Final point. Lowest point B
Em_f = K = ½ m v²
energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
mg h = K
to find the height let's use trigonometry
at point A
cos 35 = x / L
x = L cos 35
so at the height is
h = L - L cos 35
h = L (1-cos 35)
we substitute
K = m g L (1 -cos 35)
we substitute in equation 1
W = m g L (1 -cos 35)
let's calculate
W = 0.500 9.8 0.950 (1 - cos 35)
W = 0.842 J
