If a car accelerates uniformly from rest to 15 meters

Physics

Answer:

1.125m/s^2

Explanation:

Since acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with respect to time. Mathematically

v^2= u^2+2as

Where a,v,u and s are the acceleration, final velocity, initial velocity and distance respectively.

a = ?

u = 0m/s

v = 15m/s

s = 100m

Substituting the values into the formula above

v^2= u^2+2as

15^2=0^2+2×a×100

225= 0+200a

225= 200a

Divide both sides by 200

225/200 = 200a/200

a= 1.125m/s^2

Hence the acceleration of the car is 1.125m/s^2.

Note that the car accelerated uniformly from rest, that was why the initial velocity was 0m/s

Answer:

1.125 m/s²

Explanation:

Applying Newton's equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

Note: u = 0 m/s ( from rest)

make a the subject of the equation above.

a = v²/2s................ Equation 2

Given: v = 15 m/s². s =  100 m

Substitute into equation 2

a = 15²/(2×100)

a = 225/200

a = 1.125 m/s²

Imagine that an electron in an excited state in a nitrogen molecule decays to its ground state, emitting a photon with a frequen
mash [69]
Since energy cannot be created nor destroyed, the change in energy of the electron must be equal to the energy of the emitted photon.

The energy of the emitted photon is given by:
E=hf
where
h is the Planck constant
f is the photon frequency
Substituting f=8.88 \cdot 10^{14}Hz, we find
E=hf=(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js)(8.88 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=5.86 \cdot 10^{-19} J

This is the energy given to the emitted photon; it means this is also equal to the energy lost by the electron in the transition, so the variation of energy of the electron will have a negative sign (because the electron is losing energy by decaying from an excited state, with higher energy, to the ground state, with lower energy)
\Delta E= -5.86 \cdot 10^{-19} J

The voltage supplied to a circuit is 17 V and the current running through is 10 A. What is the power generated?
Lelu [443]

Answer:

170 W

Explanation:

Applying

P = VI.................... Equation 1

Where P = Power generated in watt, V = Voltage supplied to the circuit, I = Current running through the circuit.

From the question,

Given: V = 17 V, I = 10 A

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = (17×10)

P = 170 Watt.

Hence the power generated is 170 W.

The right option is A. 170 W

A tourist being chased by an angry bear is running in a straight line toward his car at a speed of 3.9 m/s. The car is a distanc
sammy [17]
If it takes t seconds to reach the car, then the distance d is 3.9t.

The bear's distance from the tourist's starting point is
6t-23

For maximum d, we set the equations equal to each other:
3.9t=6t-23
\Rightarrow -2.1t=-23
\Rightarrow t=\frac{23}{2.1}
so the distance is
d=3.9(\frac{23}{2.1})\approx42.741\ m
