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 drag racer starts from rest and accelerates at 7.4 m/s2. How far will he travel in 2.0 seconds?
Leto [7]

Using the kinematic equation below we can determine the distance traveled if t=2, a=7.4m/s^2.  First we must determine the final velocity:

v_{final}=v_{initial}+\frac{1}{2}at\\\\v_{final}=0+(7.4m/s^2)(2s)=34.8m/s

Now we will determine the distance traveled:

v_{final}^2=v_{initial}^2+2a \Delta x\\\\\Delta x = \frac{v_{final}^2}{2a} =\frac{(34.8)^2}{(2)(7.4)}=81.83 m

Therefore, the drag racer traveled 81.83 meters in 2 seconds.

A boy lifted a 50 newton rock 1 meter. How much work was done?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The answer is 50 Nm

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given</u>;</h3>
  • Applied Force = 50 Newton
  • Total Displacement = 1 meter
<h3><u>To </u><u>Find</u>;</h3>
  • Work done = ?

Here,

W = F • d

W = 50 • 1

W = 50 Nm

Thus, Work done is 50 Nm

Solvents are the substances that dissolve solutes; therefore, solvents are always liquids.
Nina [5.8K]
False, although they are usually a liquid. Solvents can be a solid or gas as well. Also, solutes can be in any state as well.

A 2.0 kg block is released from rest at the top of a curved incline in the shape of a quarter of a circle of radius R = 3.0 m. T
Zigmanuir [339]

The block has maximum kinetic energy at the bottom of the curved incline. Since its radius is 3.0 m, this is also the block's starting height. Find the block's potential energy <em>PE</em> :

<em>PE</em> = <em>m g h</em>

<em>PE</em> = (2.0 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (3.0 m)

<em>PE</em> = 58.8 J

Energy is conserved throughout the block's descent, so that <em>PE</em> at the top of the curve is equal to kinetic energy <em>KE</em> at the bottom. Solve for the velocity <em>v</em> :

<em>PE</em> = <em>KE</em>

58.8 J = 1/2 <em>m v</em> ²

117.6 J = (2.0 kg) <em>v</em> ²

<em>v</em> = √((117.6 J) / (2.0 kg))

<em>v</em> ≈ 7.668 m/s ≈ 7.7 m/s

A proton orbits a long charged wire, making 1.80 ×106 revolutions per second. The radius of the orbit is 1.20 cm What is the wir
Fantom [35]

Answer:

linear charge density = -9.495 × 10^{-34} C/m

Explanation:

given data

revolutions per second = 1.80 × 10^{6}

radius = 1.20 cm

solution

we know that when proton to revolve around charge wire then centripetal force is require to be in orbit of radius around provide by electric force

so

- q × E = m × w² × r     ..................1

- 9 × 10^{9}  × \frac{2*linear\ charge\ density}r} q =  m × w² × r   ............2

and w = \frac{2*\pi}{T}  

w = \frac{d\theta }{dt}

w = 1.80 × 10^{6} × \frac{2*\pi}{1}

w = 11304000 rad/s

so here from equation 2

- 9 × 10^{9}  × \frac{2*linear\ charge\ density}{0.012} 1.80 × 10^{6} =  1.672 × 10^{-27} × 11304000² × 0.0120  

linear charge density = -9.495 × 10^{-34} C/m
