Explanation:
Given that,
Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward: and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westward.
Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:
is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)
is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy.
Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is
Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be
So, the magnitude is 20 m/s and the direction is westward (negative sign).
Answer:
20 meters per second
Explanation:
If an object accelerates for 2 seconds, and accelerates by 10 meters per second, then that objects speed will be 20 meters per second, assuming hat there are no other factors involved.
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.
The cart's acceleration is
(0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)
= ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²) = -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .
Newton's second law of motion says
Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .
For this cart: Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)
= ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)
<span> = </span>- 10 newtons .
<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>
it will move the object if you apply force, because of that it will stay the same with newton's law.
