We have: a = v/t
Here, t = 2 s  [ Given ]
a = 9.8 m/s²  [constant value for earth system ]

Substitute their values into the expression:
9.8 = v/2
v = 9.8 × 2
v = 19.6 m/s

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

i just did the quiz and so the only 2 options that made logical sense would be B (19.6 m/s) or D (9.8 m/s) the reason someone could get confused between these two is because 19.6 divided by 2 is 9.8 m/s so for each second it will go down 9.8 m/s but since it wants to know the velocity it would be 19.6 m/s

hope this helps

A parallel-plate capacitor has circular plates of 7.10 cm radius and 1.26 mm separation. What charge (in nC) will appear on the
erik [133]

Answer:

13.98 nC

Explanation:

Capacitance depends upon the area of the plates and their distance of separation.

Radius = r = 0.071 m

separation = d = 0.00126 m

C = \frac{\kappa  \epsilon _{o} A }{d}

here κ = 1 and ε₀ = 8.85 ₓ 10⁻¹² SI units , for free space.

Area = A = π r² = 0.0158 m²

C = [( 8.85 ₓ 10⁻¹² ) ( 0.0158) ]÷ (0.00126) = 1.11 x 10⁻¹⁰ F

Charge = Q = C V = ( 1.11 x 10⁻¹⁰ F )(126) = 13.98 nC

                   = 14 nC ( rounded to two significant digits)

I attach a 4.1 kg block to a spring that obeys Hooke's law and supply 3.8 J of energy to stretch the spring. I release the block
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The amplitude of the oscillation is 2.82 cm

Explanation:

Given;

mass of attached block, m = 4.1 kg

energy of the stretched spring, E = 3.8 J

period of oscillation, T = 0.13 s

First, determine the spring constant, k;

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

where;

T is the period oscillation

m is mass of the spring

k is the spring constant

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} } \\\\k = \frac{m*4\pi ^2}{T^2} \\\\k = \frac{4.1*4*(3.142^2)}{(0.13^2)} \\\\k = 9580.088 \ N/m\\\\

Now, determine the amplitude of oscillation, A;

E = \frac{1}{2} kA^2

where;

E is the energy of the spring

k is the spring constant

A is the amplitude of the oscillation

E = \frac{1}{2} kA^2\\\\2E = kA^2\\\\A^2 = \frac{2E}{k} \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{2E}{k} } \\\\A =  \sqrt{\frac{2*3.8}{9580.088} }\\\\A = 0.0282 \ m\\\\A = 2.82 \ cm

Therefore, the amplitude of the oscillation is 2.82 cm

A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0
otez555 [7]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each second. The push force has a horizontal component of 20 N and a vertical component of 25 N downward. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    F_{1} = 20 N, F_{2} = 25 N, a = -0.9 m/s^{2}

             W = 83 N

         m = \frac{83}{9.81}

             = 8.46

Now, we will balance the forces along the y-component as follows.

       N = W + F_{2}

           = 83 + 25 = 108 N

Now, balancing the forces along the x component as follows.

       F_{1} - F_{r} = ma

        20 - F_{r} = 8.46 \times (-0.9)

             F_{r} = 7.614 N

Also, we know that relation between force and coefficient of friction is as follows.

             F_{r} = \mu \times N

          \mu = \frac{F_{r}}{N}

                    = \frac{7.614}{108}

                    = 0.0705

Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.0705.

pshyical change is a usually reversible change of a substance, as size or shape: Freezing a liquid is a physical change. Compare chemical change.

internal change is when the movement of the particles increases

specific latent heat is the amount of energy per kg (unit mass) required to change ice to water without change in temperature.
