Curved line

Explanation:

Acceleration of motion is represented by a curved line on a non-linear distance-time graph.

The acceleration of a non-linear motion is depicted using a parabola which is a curve. This implies that the velocity is constantly changing and the distance covered by the body is also changing with equal amount of time.

  • A plot of this will give a parabola. This can be further established using one of the equations of motion below:

    x = u + \frac{1}{2}at ²

This is a quadratic function where:

x is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is acceleration

A quadratic function gives a curved line which is a parabola.

A driver in a 2000 kg Porsche wishes to pass to pass a slow-moving school bus on a four-lane road. What is the average power in
Kryger [21]

The average power is 3.0\cdot 10^6 W

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done to accelerate the car; according to the work-energy theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the car:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where :

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the final kinetic energy of the car, with

m = 2000 kg is the mass of the car

v = 60 m/s is the final speed of the car

K_i = \frac{1}{2}mu^2 is the initial kinetic energy of the car, with

u = 30 m/s is initial speed of the car

Soolving:

W=\frac{1}{2}(2000)(60)^2 - \frac{1}{2}(2000)(30)^2=2.7\cdot 10^6 J

Now we can find the power required for the acceleration, which is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

t = 9 s is the time elapsed

Solving:

P=\frac{2.7\cdot 10^6}{9}=3.0\cdot 10^6 W

Thepotemich [5.8K]

The only way of telling about dark energy is our observation of how the universe has been expanding. It basically works the opposite as gravity, pushing things away from it. Thus, the closest answer would be D. The shape of galaxies in cluster galaxies.

A physics book is thrown horizontally at a velocity of 5.0 m/s from the top of a cliff 78.4 m high. How long does the book take
xenn [34]

The book's vertical position in the air is

y=78.4\,\mathrm m-\dfrac12gt^2

where g=9.80\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}. It reaches the ground when y=0, at a time t such that

0=78.4\,\mathrm m-\dfrac12gt^2\implies t=4.00\,\mathrm s

So it takes the book 4 seconds to reach the bottom. The given initial velocity is irrelevant since it only has a horizontal component; vertically, the book is starting from rest.
