Influenced by the gravitational pull of a distant star, the velocity of an asteroid changes from from +19.3 km/s to −18.8 km/s o

ver a period of 2.07 years. (a) what is the total change in the asteroid's velocity? (indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) -3.81e4 correct: your answer is correct. m/s (b) what is the asteroid's average acceleration during this interval? (indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) -5.84e-6 incorrect: your answer is incorrect. how does average acceleration depend on the change in velocity and the change in time? m/s2 additional materials

As per above given data

initial velocity = 19.3 km/s

final velocity = - 18.8 km/s

now in order to find the change in velocity

\Delta v = v_f - v_i

\Delta v = -18.8 - 19.3

\Delta v = -38.1 km/s

\Delta v = -3.81 * 10^4 m/s

Part b)

Now we need to find acceleration

acceleration is given by formula

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

given that

\Delta v =- 3.81 * 10^4 m/s

\Delta t = 2.07 years = 6.53 * 10^7 s

now the acceleration is given as

a = \frac{-3.81 * 10^4}{6.53 * 10^7}

a = - 5.84 * 10^{-4}m/s^2

so above is the acceleration

Ann [662]
We know that speed equals distance between time. Therefore to find the distance we have that d = V * t. Substituting the values d = (72 Km / h) * (1h / 3600s) * (4.0 s) = 0.08Km.Therefore during this inattentive period traveled a distance of 0.08Km

WORTH 47 POINTS!!! It's EASY too!
Vikentia [17]
The Factors are Temperature and kinetic energy, the temperature is because the particles are going to move fast which means the particles in a solid container or in solid pattern they will actually vibrate and they will expand , when temperature increase, more kinetic energy between the particles .
examples is that in the steel when you heat a steel the particles inside it will vibrate then the particles speed up because the vibration increases, therefore the temperature increases so a a thermal expansion occurs that the vibration of the particles will take up more space so the steel bar expands slightly in all Direction if the temperature Falls the reverse happens and the material or steel contracts which means get smaller .
another example is the thermometer, the thermometer has a liquid inside it which is Mercury or alcohol this liquid expands when the temperature rises, the tube is made narrow so that a small increase in volume of the liquid produces a large movement along the tube.

You drop a stone down off a bridge. You are able to count to 4.0 seconds when it finally hits the water. How high is the bridge?
mart [117]

Answer:

The height of the bridge is 78.4 m.

Explanation:

Given;

time of the stone motion off the bridge, t = 4.0 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The height of the bridge is given by;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

where;

u is the initial velocity of the stone, u = 0

h = ¹/₂gt²

h = ¹/₂(9.8)(4)²

h = 78.4 m

Therefore, the height of the bridge is 78.4 m.
