Acceleration=(change in speed)/(time for the change). 43/0.28 = 153.6 m/s^2.

Answer:

a =-153.6\ m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Since we are assuming that is acceleration in water is constant, we are going to use one of the uniform accelerated motion formulas. Since we know the initial velocity (v_{0}=43 m/s), the final velocity (v_f=0) and, the time it takes to stop (t=0.28s) so, we are going to use:

v_{f}=v_{0}+at,

where a is the acceleration.

Solving for the acceleration

a=\dfrac{v_{f}-v_{0}}{t}

and, computing

a =\dfrac{0-43}{0.28}\\\\a=-153.6\ m/s^{2}.

Notice that the acceleration is negative. This is because the speed decreases when the hailstone enters the water.

How much energy must be added to a bowl of 125 popcorn kernels in order for them to reach a popping temperature of 175°C? Assume
Lisa [10]

Answer:

c) 3176 J

Explanation:

mass of 125 popcorn = 125 x .0001 = . 0125 kg

increase in temperature =  175 - 21 = 154°C

specific heat of popcorn = 1650

heat required to increase temperature

= mass of popcorn x increase in temperature x specific heat

= .0125 x 154 x 1650

=  3176.25 J

What . Slides are placed upside down in a slide projector to correct for the _______ image produced. A. magnified B. inverted C.
Yuri [45]
<span>The correct answer is B. Inverted image. This is because of all the lenses and light refractions and what not. The same things happens with our eyes except our brains fix the inverted image automatically. Since there are no brains in a projector, you have to fix it on your own by putting it in reverse.</span>
