A car accelerates from 21.0 m/s to 46.0 m/s in 2.5 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car.

Physics

Answer:

10.0 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time interval it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

For the car in this problem,

u = 21.0 m/s

v = 46.0 m/s

t = 2.5 s

Substituting, we find the acceleration

a=\frac{46.0-21.0}{2.5}=10.0 m/s^2

Answer:

c. 4.582\times10^{21} kg

Explanation:

r_{i} = Initial distance between asteroid and rock = 7514 km = 7514000 m

r_{f} = Final distance between asteroid and rock = 2823 km = 2823000 m

v_{i} = Initial speed of rock = 136 ms⁻¹

v_{f} = Final speed of rock = 392 ms⁻¹

m = mass of the rock

M = mass of the asteroid

Using conservation of energy

Initial Kinetic energy of rock + Initial gravitational potential energy = Final Kinetic energy of rock + Final gravitational potential energy

(0.5) m v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{i}} = (0.5) m v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{i}} = (0.5) v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) (136)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(7514000)} = (0.5) (392)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(2823000)} \\M = 4.582\times10^{21} kg

Define speed and what is it’s SI unit.
Nadusha1986 [10]
Speed can be thought of as the rate at which an object covers distance. ... Speed has the dimensions of distance divided by time. The SI unit of speed is the metre per second, but the most common unit of speed in everyday usage is the kilometre per hour or, in the US and the UK, miles per hour........?

This chart lists four examples of two objects that are in contact.
Oxana [17]

Before coming into conclusion first we have to understand the direction of heat flow.

Heat is the transferred thermal energy from one body to another body due to the temperature difference just like water flows from higher level to lower level.

Whenever two bodies having different temperature come closer to each other heat will flow from hotter body to cooler one if no external work is done. The heat flow may be through any of the ways i.e conduction,radiation or convection. Hence temperature difference is the parameter which gives the direction of heat flow.

The temperature is also considered as a measure of average kinetic energy of the substance.The thermal energy does not give the direction heat flow. Heat may  flow from the body  having low thermal energy but at higher temperature to the body having higher thermal energy but at low temperature. The reverse does not happen naturally .

In example 1 there is fire and air. Obviously fire is at high temperature and air at low temperature.So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2.

In example 2 there is a metal at 80 degree Celsius and another metal at 12 degree Celsius .So heat will flow from object 1 to object 2

In example 3 we have cooler ocean and warm air. So the heat will flow from object 2 to object 1.

In example 4 we have a tool with high thermal energy and a material with little thermal energy.We already know that thermal energy can not determine the direction of heat flow. Here the temperature of each substance is not given.The kinetic energy is  part of thermal energy.So there is the chance of higher kinetic energy of the tool for having higher thermal energy .At that time the heat will flow object 1 to object 2.Otherwise the reverse will occur. So it is a special case.

As per the question only option 4 is correct which tells that heat will flow from object 1 to object 2 in examples 1,2,4, and heat will flow from object 2 to 1 in example 3. Other options violate the fundamental law of thermodynamics.
