<span><span>Velocity is a vector, and the initial and final ones are in opposite directions.
There must have been acceleration in order to change the direction of motion.</span>

A) No. The initial and final velocities are the same.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", and the initial and final velocities are NOT the same.

B) Yes. The ball had to slow down in order to change direction.
This is poor, and not the correct choice.
The "Yes" is correct, but the explanation is bad.
Acceleration does NOT require any change in speed.

C) No. Acceleration is the change in velocity. The ball's velocity is constant.
This is all wrong, and not the correct choice.
It's "Yes", there IS acceleration, and the ball's velocity is NOT constant.

D) Yes. Even though the initial and final velocities are the same, there is a change in direction for the ball.
This choice is misleading too.
The "Yes" is correct ... there IS acceleration.
The change in direction is the reason.
The initial and final velocities are NOT the same. Only the speeds are.

Velocity is define as how fast an object is moving, and in what direction, it is a vector quantity, meaning velocity has both magnitude and direction. Anything goes to the left is negative, and anything goes to the right is positive.

a. Direction from east to west, given distance 11.5 meters, and time of 7.10 s

V = displacement/time V = -11.5/7.10 S V = -1.62 m/s (going left)

b. Joaquin reaches his original position. Displacement is now zero.

Velocity of the lawnmower is equal to "zero" but if we calculate for the average speed of the lawn, you just have to add the distance covered and the time it take to go back at the original position or point of origin

How much heat must be removed from 456 g of water at 25.0°C to change it into ice at - 10.0°C?

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

229,098.96 J

Explanation:

mass of water (m) = 456 g = 0.456 kg

initial temperature (T) = 25 degrees

final temperature (t) = - 10 degrees

specific heat of ice = 2090 J/kg

latent heat of fusion =33.5 x 10^(4) J/kg

specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg

for the water to be converted to ice it must undergo three stages:

the water must cool from 25 degrees to 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of water x change in temp

Q = 0.456 x 4186 x (25 - (-10)) = 66808.56 J

the water must freeze at 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of fusion x change in temp

Q = 0.456 x 33.5 x 10^(4) = 152760 J

the water must cool further to -10 degrees from 0 degrees, and the heat removed would be Q = m x specific heat of ice x change in temp

Q = 0.456 x 2090 x (0 - (-10)) = 9530.4 J

The quantity of heat removed from all three stages would be added to get the total heat removed.

Q total = 66,808.56 + 152,760 + 9,530.4 = 229,098.96 J

Which of the following cars have the most kinetic energy

faltersainse [42]

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

$\huge\boxed{OptionA}$

mass = 4 kg

velocity = 5 m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Orange truck:</h3>

Mass= 2kg

Velocity = 7m/s^2

mass = 6 kg

velocity = 4m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Green Car:</h3>

Mass = 8 kg

Velocity = 3 m/s^2

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>SOLUTION:</h2>

By the equation of kinetic energy,

K.E = $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where,

K.E is kinetic energy

m is mass

v is velocity

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic energy of Blue car:</h3>

Directly substitute the variables in the equation,

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}x4x5^2$

Simplify the equation,

K.E = 50 J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Silver Car:</h3>

Directly substitude the variable in the equation,

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}x6x4^2$

Simplify the equation,

K.E = 48J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Green Car:</h3><h3 />

Substitute the variables in the equation,

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}x8x3^2$

Simplify the Equation,

K.E = 36J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Orange Truck:</h3><h3 />

Substitute the variable,

K.E = $\frac{1}{2}x 2x7^2$

Simplify the equation,

K.E = 49J

As you can see that the highest value of kinetic energy is of Blue SUV thus it will be out answer.
