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

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.

How much work is done? A Net Force of 9.0 N acts through a distance of 3.0 m in a time of 3.0 s. The answers are 3.0 J, 9.0 J, 2
Vadim26 [7]
If the force and the motion are along the same direction (like it is here) then work is force*distance.  The time doesn't come into play until you want the power used.  So here
W=9.0*3.0=27J

A trained eye in the dark for an extended period of time may pick up a light stimulus from a light source, at the lowest radiate
frez [133]

Answer:

    #_photons = 30 photons / s

Explanation:

Let's start by finding the energy of a photon of light, let's use the Planck relation

         E = h f

the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

         c = λ f

we substitute

         E = h c /λ

         E₀ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸/500 10⁻⁹

         E₀ = 3.978 10⁻¹⁹ J

now let's use a direct proportion rule. If the energy of a photon is Eo, how many fornes has an energy E = 1.2 10⁻¹⁷ J in a second

          #_photons = 1 photon   (E / Eo)

          #_photons = 1  1.2 10⁻¹⁷ /3.978 10⁻¹⁹

          #_photons = 3.0 10¹

          #_photons = 30 photons / s

What is the relationship between an object’s mass and its gravitational potential energy?.
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

If we’re talking about objects on the Earth, the gravitational potential energy is given by:

Explanation:

PEg=mgh

so the energy is proportional to the mass ( m ), but also to the strength of the gravitational field ( g ), and the height ( h ) to which the mass is lifted.

A wave has a frequency of 875 hz and a wavelength of 352 m. At what speed is this wave traveling 
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

308,000 or 30.8×10^3

Explanation:

v=f×lamda

v is ?, f is 875Hz, lamda is 352m

v=875×352

v=308,000

v=30.8×10^3 m/s
