If the velocity of an object changes from 15 m/s during a time interval of 4s what is the acceleration of the object

Physics
1 answer:
Fiesta28 [93]3 years ago
6 0
The acceleration of an object is defined as change in velocity divided by change in time, that is,
Acceleration = change in velocity / change in time
In the question given above, 
Change in velocity = 15
Change in time = 4
Acceleration = 15 /4 = 3.75
Therefore, acceleration = 3.8 m/s^2.

(a) Calculate the height of a cliff if it takes 2. 35 s for a rock to hit the ground when it is thrown straight up from the clif
Natali [406]

(a) The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

(b) The time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3><h3 />

The change of displacement with respect to time is defined as the velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity. it is a time-based component.

(a) The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

According to Newton's second equation of motion

\rm H =ut-\frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ \rm H =8\times 2.35-\frac{1}{2} 9.81 (2.35)^2\\\\\rm H =8.16 \; m

Hence The height of the cliff will be 8.26 meters.

(b)The time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

We must have the final velocity to find the time so;

\rm v^2=u^2+2gh\\\\ \rm v^2=8^2+2\times 9.81 \times 8.6 \\\\ \rm v= \sqrt{8^2+2\times 9.81 \times 8.6}\\\\\rm v=15.03 \;m/sec

According to Newton's third equation of motion ;

\rm v=u-gt \\\\ \rm t=\frac{v-u}{g} \\\\ \rm t=\frac{15.03-8}{9.81} \\\\ \rm t=0.717 sec.

Hence the time would it take to reach the ground will be 0.717 sec.

"what information does the slope of the line give you when graphing the pressure versus 1/volume at constant temperature for 1 m
Rashid [163]
Hello!

The slope of the line given by graphing pressure vs 1/Volume at constant temp for one mole of gas will give you the value for nRT from equation PV=nRT

So set nRT=slope and take the constant number mole of gas and the constant temp and solve for R the universal gas constant. You arm for pressure and litters for volume to get R in units of L*atm/mol*k

Hope this helps you! Thanks!!
