A car traveling at 27 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 12 seconds. What is its acceleration?

1 answer:

5 0

Initial speed = 27 m/s
Final speed = zero

Acceleration = (final speed - initial speed) / (time)

= (-27 m/s) / (12 s)

= (-27/12) m/s²

= - 2.25 m/s²

A food processor draws 8.47 A of current when connected to a potential difference of 110 V.

Answer:

27.95[kW*min]

Explanation:

We must remember that the power can be determined by the product of the current by the voltage.

$P=V*I$

where:

P = power [W]

V = voltage [volt]

I = amperage [Amp]

Now replacing:

$P=110*8.47\\P=931.7[W]$

Now the energy consumed can be obtained mediate the multiplication of the power by the amount of time in operation, we must obtain an amount in Kw per hour [kW-min]

$Energy = 931.7[kW]*30[days]*10[\frac{min}{1day} ]=279510[W*min]or 27.95[kW*min]$

A 5.09 × 1014-hertz electromagnetic wave is traveling through a transparent medium. The main factor that determines the speed of

sergiy2304 [10]

We are given an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 5.09 x 10^14 Hz and travelling through a transparent medium. If the medium was vacuum, the speed of the wave would be equal to the speed of light. Otherwise, the main factor that would determine the speed of the wave is its wavelength.
