Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

because the object is slowing down, the acceleration will be negative.

acceleration = (4-34) / 60
acceleration = -30 / 60
acceleration = -0.5 m/s^2

answer : the train is accelerating at -0.5 m/s^2

If you are pushing on a box with a force of 20 N and there is a 7 N force on the box due to sliding friction, what is the net fo
vovangra [49]

Answer:

13 N

Explanation:

The Net Force of an object should be the difference between the forces applied to the object if the object is not in equilibrium. This object is not in equilibrium so therefore by finding the difference between the forces, you will find your answer. 20 N - 7 N = 13 N.

By how much does the gravitational potential energy of a 54-kg pole vaulter change if her center of mass rises about 4.0 m durin
kodGreya [7K]
<span>the gravational potential energy of anything on the ground is zero. When calculating potential energy you take height in meters and multiply it by the mass of the object in kilograms and the acceleration of gravity to get a new unit called Joules. Any object at ground level has a potential energy of zero newtons becuase anything multiplied by zero is zero. An object with mass of 54 kg, 4 meters above the ground has a gravitatinal potential energy of 2116.8 Joules.</span>

What quantity does the Hamiltonian correspond to? Rest mass Potential energy Total energy Kinetic energy Bohr frequency Lagrangi
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The correct option is: Total energy

Explanation:

The Hamiltonian operator, in quantum mechanics, is an operator that is associated with the<u> total energy of the system.</u> It is equal to the sum of the total kinetic energy and the potential energy of all the particles of the system.

The Hamiltonian operator was named after the Irish mathematician, William Rowan Hamiltonis denoted and is denoted by H.
