A car speeds up from rest to +16 m/ s in 4s. calculate the acceleration

2 answers:

6 0

The magnitude of acceleration is (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning) =

(16 m/s) - (0) = 16 m/s .

Time for the change = 4 s .

Magnitude of acceleration = (16 m/s) / (4 s) = 4 m/s per sec = 4 m/s² .

16 m/s - 0 m/s divided by 4s
= 16 m/s divided by 4s
= 4 m/s
The acceleration is 4 m/s squared

In a high school swim competition, a student takes 1.6 s to complete 1.5 somersaults. Determine the average angular speed of the

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The angular speed is $w = 5.89 \ rad/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The time taken is $t = 1.6 s$

The number of somersaults is n = 1.5

The total angular displacement during the somersault is mathematically represented as

$\theta = n * 2 * \pi$

substituting values

$\theta = 1.5 * 2 * 3.142$

$\theta = 9.426 \ rad$

The angular speed is mathematically represented as

$w = \frac{\theta }{t}$

substituting values

$w = \frac{9.426}{1.6}$

$w = 5.89 \ rad/s$

Material speed of light

Cloud [144]

The question is poor. Light doesn't refract on its way THROUGH anything. It refracts at the boundary BETWEEN two different media. The effect is greatest where the ratio of the speeds of light in the two media is greatest. On your list, that would be at the boundary between air or space and glass.
