A giant armadilo moving northward with a constant acceleration covers the distance between two points 60m apart in 6 seconds. It

s velocity as it passes the second point is 15m/s
what is the acceleration? (answer is 1.7) please explain how to solve this problem in detail.

Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's second law of motion. To determine acceleration, we need to know the initial velocity and the final velocity and the time elapsed. From the given values, we need t o calculate for the initial velocity. We use some kinematic equations. We do as follows:

 x = v0t + at^2/2
60 = v0(6) + a(6)^2/2
60 = 6v0 + 18a          (EQUATION 1)

vf = v0 + at
15 = v0 + a(6)
15 = v0 + 6a             (EQUATION 2)

Solving for v0 and a,
v0 = 5 m/s
a = 1.7 m/s^2

Need help with formula: H(t) = -16^2 + vt + s
Rom4ik [11]

<span> The equation is h(t) = at^2 + vt + d where a = acceleration of gravity = - 32.174 ft/sec^2 v = 25 feet/sec d = starting height = 0 and h(t) = 0 when the ball hits the ground. So, 0 = - 32.174t^2 + 25t + 0 You can use the quadratic formula on that if you want, or you can solve like this: 0 = - 32.174t^2 + 25t 0 = t ( -32.174t + 25) So, one solution of that is t = 0, corresponding to the initial time when the ball is kicked. The other time is: 25 = 32.174t t = 25/32.174 = 0.777 seconds or approximately 0.8 seconds.</span>

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

bounce up and down

Explanation:

Buoys are used for two main reasons, one is to let the people on land know of a big incoming wave, while the second reason is to generate electricity. When a big wave is approaching the buoy starts to bounce up and down with the strength of the smalled previous waves and then bounce very strongly up as the bigger wave passes by. This movement is combined with pistons within the buoy in order to conduct electricity.

Which statement accurately describes current electricity?
horsena [70]

Answer:

D. It is caused by flowing negatively charged particles.

Explanation:

Current electricity is caused by flowing negatively charged particles. Current flows in a direction opposite the that of the charged particles.

The negatively charged particles can be electrons or ions in solutions.

As the electrons flows, current is generated in the opposite direction.

 The potential difference is what drives the current and it is dependent on the available energy in the cell.
