Assume it is in uniform deceleration.
u=25
v=0
s=x
a=?
t=12

v=u+at
0=25+a(12)
a=-2.08(3sig fig)

decelerarion of 2.08 ms^(-2)/
acceleration=-2.08ms^(-2)

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

Change in speed = (ending speed) minus (starting speed)

                            =      (0)             -      (25 m/s)     =     -25 m/s

Acceleration  =  (-25 m/s) / (12 sec)  =  -2.083 m/s²  .

Two tugboats are moving a barge. Tugboat A pushes on the barge with a force of 3000n. Tugboat B pulls with a force of 5000 Newto
kenny6666 [7]

The net force on the barge is 8000 N

Explanation:

In order to find the net force on the badge, we have to use the rules of vector addition, since force is a vector quantity.

In this problem, we have two forces:

  • The force of tugboat A, F_A = 3000 N, acting in a certain direction
  • The force of tugboat B, F_B = 5000 N, also acting in the same direction

Since the two forces act in the same direction, this means that we can simply add their magnitudes to find the net combined force on the barge. Therefore, we get

F=F_A+F_B = 3000 + 5000 = 8000 N

and the direction is the same as the direction of the two forces.

Since the density of air decreases with an increase in temperature, but the bulk modulus B is nearly independent of temperature,
Usimov [2.4K]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concept related to the speed of sound waves in fluids.

By definition we know that the speed would be given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{\beta}{\rho}}

\beta = Bulk modulus

\rho =Density of air

From the expression shown above we can realize that the speed of sound is <em>inversely proportional</em> to the fluid in which it is found, in this case the air. When the density increases, the speed of sound decreases and vice versa.

According to the statement then, if the density of the air decreases due to an increase in temperature, we can conclude that the speed of sound increases when the temperature increases. <u>They are directly proportional.</u>

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 15m/s in a period of 3 seconds what is your acceleration
choli [55]
Avg acceleration; under constant acceleration condition only; = Vf-Vi/time
a=Vf-Vi/time=(15m/s-6m/s)/(3s)=
(9m/s)/(3s)=3m/s^2

Hope this helps. Thanks.

4. A stone is dropped from the fifth floor of a building from a height 14 m. How long would it take
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

1.690308509s

Explanation:

v²=u²+2as

v²=0²+2(9.8)(14)

v²=274.4

∴v=16.56502339m/s

v=u+at

16.56502339=0+9.8t

∴t=1.690308509s
