A commuter backs her car out of her garage with an acceleration of 1.40 m/s^2. (a) How long does it take her to reach a speed of

2.00 m/s? (b) If she then brakes to a stop in 0.800 s, what is her deceleration?

Answer:

a) It takes her 1.43 s to reach a speed of 2.00 m/s.

b) Her deceleration is - 2.50 m/s²

Explanation:

The equation of velocity for an object that moves in a straight line with constant acceleration is as follows:

v = v0 + a · t

Where:

v = velocty.

v0 = initial velocity.

a = acceleration.

t = time.

a) Using the equation of velocity, let´s consider that the car moves in the positive direction. Then:

v = v0 + a · t

2.00 m/s = 0 m/s + 1.40 m/s² · t

t = 2.00 m/s / 1.40 m/s²

t = 1.43 s

It takes her 1.43 s to reach a speed of 2.00 m/s

b) Let´s use again the equation of velocity, knowing that at t = 0.800 s the velocity is 0 m/s:

v = v0 + a · t

0 = 2.00 m/s + a · 0.800 s

-2.00 m/s / 0.800 s = a

a = -2.50 m/s²

Her deceleration is - 2.50 m/s²

Answer:

Magnitude of the net force acting on the kayak = 39.61 N

Explanation:

Considering motion of kayak:-

Initial velocity, u =  0 m/s

Distance , s = 0.40 m

Final velocity, v = 0.65 m/s

We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Substituting

   v² = u² + 2as

    0.65² = 0² + 2 x a x 0.4

    a = 0.53 m/s²

We have force, F  = ma

Mass, m = 75 kg

    F  = ma = 75 x 0.53 = 39.61 N

Magnitude of the net force acting on the kayak = 39.61 N

Wind is usually caused by a difference in pressure that causes wind to be "Pushed" on the surface of earth. Air usually moves from high to low pressure and that is what we call wind. Please hit the thanks button if this helped :)

What are the units of acceleration?
Marina86 [1]

Acceleration is any change in speed or direction of motion.

The dimension of speed is [length/time],
so a change is [length/time²].

Popular units include [meter/second²] and [feet/second²] .
________________________

Direction almost always boils down to an angle, (which technically
has no dimensions), so a change in direction is  [angle/time] .

Popular units include [radian/second] and [degree/second] .
