Vs - velocity on beginning
ve - velocity on ending. You've got:
v_s = 5 \frac{m}{s} \\ v_e=8 \frac{m}{s} \\ \hbox{Then:} \\ \Delta v=v_e - v_s = 8 \frac{m}{s} - 5\frac{m}{s}=3 \frac{m}{s} \\ a=0,75 \frac{m}{s^2} \\ \hbox{And from formula:} \\ a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} \qquad \Rightarrow \qquad  \Delta t= \frac{\Delta v}{a} \\ \hbox{Substitute:} \\ \Delta t=\frac{3\frac{m}{s}}{0,75 \frac{m}{s^2}}= \frac{3}{\frac{3}{4}} s= 3 \cdot \frac{4}{3} s= 4 s
So he needed  4 second.

Which of the following represents a case in which you are not accelerating? -Driving 60 miles per hour around a curve -Going fro
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Driving in a straight line at 60 miles per hour

Explanation:

In the first case there's an acceleration that modifies the direction of the movement.

In the second case there's a lineal acceleration that increases the speed of the car.

in the third case there's a negative acceleration that reduces the speed of the car.

On the third case the speed is constant so the acceleration is 0 mi/s^2

A swimmer is capable of swimming at 1.4m/s in still water. a. How far downstream will he land if he swims directly across a 180m
ozzi

Answer:

t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec   (time to swim horizontally across river)

S = 129 sec * V     where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream

The problem does not specify V the speed of the river

PLS HELP ASAP!!! <br> I don’t understand this at all
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The part that completes the nuclear equation is:

           ^{221}_{87}Fr

Explanation:

<h2>A) Preliminar explanation</h2>

The <em>nuclear equation</em> represents a nuclear reaction: the change of the nucleus of an atom.

The given equation represents an actinium atom releasing an alpha particle.

This is the meaning of each part of the equation:

  • Ac is the chemical symbol of actinium
  • The superscript to the left of the chemical symbol is the mass number of the atom (number of protons plus number of neutrons). The mass number is 225.
  • The subscript to the left of the chemical symbol is the atomic number of the atom (number of protons). The atomic number is 89.

  • ^4_2He is the symbol of the alpha particle. It is an atom of helium
  • The mass number is 4
  • The atomic number is 2

<h2>B) Solution</h2>

To <em>complete the nuclear equation </em>you must do two balances: mass number balance and atomic number balance.

<u>i) Mass number balance</u>

  • 225 = A + 4 ⇒ A = 225 - 4 = 221

<u>ii) Atomic number balance</u>

  • 89 = Z + 2 ⇒ Z = 89 - 2 = 87

Therefore, the mass number of the unknown atom is 221, and the atomic number is 87.

From a periodic table, the element with atomic number 87 is francium, Fr.

Now, you have the chemical symbol, the atomic number, and the mass number of the unknown atom, which lets you to write the atom that completes the <em>nuclear equation</em>.

           ^{221}_{87}Fr

The edge of a flying disc with a radius of 0.13 m spins with a tangential speed of 3.3 m/s. The centripetal acceleration of the
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Radius, r = 0.13m

Velocity, v = 3.3m/s

To find centripetal acceleration;

Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula;

Acceleration, a = \frac {v^{2}}{r}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Centripetal \; acceleration, a = \frac {3.3^{2}}{0.13}

Centripetal \; acceleration, a = \frac {10.89}{0.13}

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²</em>

<em>Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the edge of the disc is 83.77 m/s². </em>
