Acceleration = change in velocity divided by time taken...

I.e Acceleration = (Final velocity - Initial Velocity) /time taken...

The question says the body accelerate from rest... Therefore it's initial velocity = 0

It reach a speed(velocity) of 20m/s.. My final velocity

And the time taken to attain the velocity = 5 seconds....

Therefore

acceleration = (20-0)/5

a = 20/5

a = 4ms¯²

Hope this helped....

A machine accelerates a 5 kg missile from rest to a speed of 5 km/s. The net force accelerating the missile 500,000 N. How long
Gnoma [55]
Final velocity = 5km/sec = 5000 m/sec
Initial velocity = 0, mass = 5kg and force = 500,000 N
F = m(Vf-Vi)/time
Time = m(Vf-Vi)/force = 5*5000/500000 = 0.05 seconds
So, it takes 0.05 sec to arrive at the speed of 5km/s.

What is the frequency in hertz of a signal that repeats 80,000 times within one minute? What is its period?
Harman [31]

1333.3 is the frequency in the hertz of a signal that repeats 80,000 times within one minute. 0.00075 is its period.

The frequency of a repeated event is its number of instances per unit of time. In some cases, it is also referred to as temporal frequency or ordinary frequency to underline differences with spatial and angular frequencies, respectively.

The length of time it takes for a particle in a medium to complete one full vibrational cycle is the period of a wave. Being a time, a period is measured in time units like seconds, hours, days, or years. The Earth's orbit around the Sun has a duration of around 365 days, and one cycle of the Earth lasts 365 days.

frequency = cycle /second

frequency = 80000 / 60

frequency = 1333.3 hertz

Period = 1 / frequency

Period = 1 / 1,333.3

Period = 0.00075
