It is at rest for 3 seconds before moving at constant speed for 10 seconds.

Physics

Answer:

The answer is B.

Explanation:

You're given a position vs. time graph. The the slope of the line is the change in position over time - in other words, the speed.

A positive slope indicates a positive change in position over time and therefore a positive speed. The more positive the slope, the greater the change and the greater the positive speed.

A negative slope indicates a negative change in position over time and therefore a negative speed. The more negative the slop, the greater the change and the greater the negative speed.

A horizontal slope (i.e. slope of 0) indicates no change in position over time. In other words, the speed is 0 and the object is stationary.

With this in mind, you can see the object is initially moving with a positive speed for 3 s (from t=0 to t=3), then is at rest for 3 s (from t=3 to t=6), then is moving at a (higher) positive speed for 4 s (from t=6 to t=10). You can see then that the answer is B.

A is wrong because after being at rest the object moves at a constant speed for only 4 s.

C is wrong because by the time the object gets to 5cm, it has moved at 3 different speeds (first positive slope, horizontal slope, second positive slope).

D is wrong because the object moves from 0 to 3cm in 3 s - a speed of 3cm/3s = 1cm/s.

C. Clear, dry weather. A good way to remember is H for high pressure = H for happy weather; L for low pressure = L for lousy weather (Glad I had someone to tell me this)

Anne releases a stone from a height of 2 meters. She measures the kinetic energy of the stone at 9.8 joules at the exact point i
insens350 [35]
A. 0.5kg

To get this answer you need to follow the equation of KE=0.5*mv^2 
But we don't have the m part in the equation. So just plug in the numbers to see which works best, though I can tell you before we do that the answer would be a. 

As you may know, gravity, is a force of 9.8 m/s. And we want to get 9.8 Joules. So if we take a half a kg stone, release it at one meter, we get half of the normal gravity pull, 4.90 Joules. That means if we take half a kg stone and drop it at a doubled height, we get 9.8 Joules.

That is also to say that if we have a 1kg stone and drop it at one meter you will get the normal pull of gravity in Joules, 9.8J. 

Be careful though, this does not mean if you drop a 1kg stone and a .5 kg stone the 1kg will hit first. This simply means that the 1kg stone will have twice the Joules that the .5kg stone has.

A car accelerates from rest at 3.6 m/s 2 . How much time does it need to attain a speed of 5 m/s?
Olenka [21]

car starts from rest

v_i = 0

final speed attained by the car is

v_f = 5 m/s

acceleration of the car will be

a = 3.6 m/s^2

now the time to reach this final speed will be

t = \frac{v_f - v_i}{a}

t = \frac{5 - 0}{3.6}

t = 1.39 s

so it required 1.39 s to reach this final speed
