Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed) = (15 m/s - 7 m/s) = 8 m/s

time for the change = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Acceleration = (8 m/s) / (120 seconds)

Acceleration = 0.067 m/s²

leva [86]

Answer:

$t = 2.52 billion \:years$

Explanation:

As we know by radioactivity law

$N = N_o e^{-\lambda t}$

so here we will have

$N = 3 mg$

$N_o = 12 mg$

now we will have

$3 = 12 e^{-\lambda t}$

$\lambda t = ln 4$

now we also know that

$\lambda = \frac{ln2}{1.26 \times 10^6 yrs}$

$t = 1.26\times 10^6\times \frac{ln4}{ln2}$

$t = 2.52 billion \:years$

Ezekiel pushes a 34 kg sled with 101 N for 8.0 m. How much work did he do on the sled?

Simora [160]

Answer: 810 J

Explanation: work W = F·s = 101 N · 8.0 m = 808 J

Force F = u mg = 101 N in which u is friction constant. Also mass is included in force.
