A car traveling at 24 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 8 seconds. What is its acceleration?

Formula for velocity:
V(t) = Vi + at
Where V(t) is velocity at time t, Vi is initital velocity, and a is acceleration.
Solving for a:
V(8) = Vi + a(8)
V(8) = 0 (car has stopped)
0 = 24 + 8a
-24 = 8a
a = -3 m/s/s

an object has a constant acceleration of 3.2 m/s^2.at a certain instant its velocity is 10 m/s . what is its velocity after 5 se
aleksandrvk [35]

So here, you're looking for distance. The formula is D=vt+1/2at^2.

Lets plug in the informations.

10 m/s is our v (initial velocity)

5 second is out t(time)

3.2 m/s is our a(acceleration)

10m/s(5)+1/2(3.2m/s+5^2)

50m/s+1/2(28.2)

50m/s+14.1

Answer =64.1 m

Glad to help you out buddy. Let me know if you need help.

What is the kinetic energy of a 0.50 kg ball traveling at 120 m/s
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

3600 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of an object is the energy posses by an object solely due to its motion.

It can also be defined as the amount of work that can be done when an moving object come to test.

Kinetic energy of an object can be calculated by the equation,

K.E. = ½mv²

Where m = mass, v = velocity

So you get,

K.E. = ½×0.5×(120)² = 3600 J

Heat transfer between two substances is affected by specific heat and the
IgorLugansk [536]

The correct answer is D. Amount of time and area of physical contact between the substances.

Explanation:

Heat transfer refers to the flow of thermal energy or heat between two or more objects. This process involves multiple factors and implies heat from the hottest object goes to the coldest one until there is an equilibrium. To begin, heat transfer depends on the amount of thermal energy in the objects because objects must have a different amount of thermal energy for heat to flow.

Besides this, the amount of energy that flows depends on the time and the contact between the substances of objects. Indeed, objects need to be in contact or close to each other for heat to transfer, and the time needs to be enough for the process to occur. For example, if you place a pot over the fire just for a few seconds it is likely the heat transferred is minimal, which does not occur if you leave the pot more time. At the same time if the pot is in close contact with fire more heat will be transferred.-

Lelechka [254]
Given that the design is not shown, for traditional nuclear reactors with control rods, the best way to meet an increased demand for energy would be to raise the control rods so that less neutrons are absorbed.

So, the most reasonable answer to the question is B.
