Acceleration is a vector quantity which means that it concerns about the direction and the velocity. Thus, the question above may be answered by two of the choices. Those are letter "C. direction" and letter "D. displacement".

At the instant the traffic light turns green, an automobile starts with a constant acceleration a of 2.5 m/s2. At the same insta
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

6.96 s

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • u = initial speed of the automobile = 0 m/s
  • a = constant acceleration of the automobile = 2.5\ m/s^2
  • v = constant speed of the truck = 8.7 m/s

<u>Assume:</u>

  • t = time instant at which the automobile overtakes the truck.

At the moment the automobile and the truck both meat each other the distance travel by both vehicles must be the same.

\therefore \textrm{Distance traveled by the automobile }=\textrm{Distance traveled by the truck}\\\Rightarrow ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2=vt\\\Rightarrow (0)t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.5\times t^2=8.7t\\\Rightarrow 1.25t^2=8.7t\\\Rightarrow 1.25t^2-8.7t=0\\\Rightarrow t(1.25t-8.7)=0\\\Rightarrow t = 0\,\,\,or\,\,\, t = \dfrac{8.7}{1.25}\\\Rightarrow t = 0\,\,\,or\,\,\, t = 6.96\\

Since t = 0 s is the initial condition. So, they both meet again at t = 6.96 s such that the automobile overtakes the truck.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) 10N

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The sketch of the two cases has been attached to this response.

<em>Case 1: The box is pushed by a horizontal force F making it to move with constant velocity.</em>

In this case, a frictional force F_{r} is opposing the movement of the box. As shown in the diagram, it can be deduced from Newton's law of motion that;

∑F = ma    -------------------(i)

Where;

∑F = effective force acting on the object (box)

m = mass of the object

a = acceleration of the object

∑F = F -  F_{r}

m = 50kg

a = 0   [At constant velocity, acceleration is zero]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

F -  F_{r} = m x a

F -  F_{r} = 50 x 0

F -  F_{r} = 0

F =  F_{r}            -------------------(ii)

<em>Case 2: The box is pushed by a horizontal force 1.5F making it to move with a constant velocity of 0.1m/s²</em>

In this case, the same frictional force F_{r} is opposing the movement of the box.

∑F = 1.5F -  F_{r}

m = 50kg

a =  0.1m/s²

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

1.5F -  F_{r} = m x a

1.5F -  F_{r} = 50 x 0.1

1.5F -  F_{r} = 5            ---------------------(iii)

<em>Substitute </em>F_{r}<em> = F from equation (ii) into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

1.5F - F = 5            

0.5F = 5            

F = 5 / 0.5

F = 10N

Therefore, the value of F is 10N

How much work does gravity do on the compressor during this displacement?
gayaneshka [121]

Explanation and Examples

let the mass of the compressor be

mass (m):

height in x axis is (h1)

height in y axis be (h2):

Height difference: h2-h1

displacement x force:

mass x gravity x height

(m)*9.8*(height difference) = ___ J

Since gravity is forcing down, it would be negative!

Put the values that you require and get the answer.

A material that can be hit without shattering is?<br> viscous, flammable, hard, malleable
nika2105 [10]
Malleable

Malleability is a property of matter, that’s specializes in metals, in which these metals can be bended, twisted or formed into a thinner sheets, and not being able to shatter to pieces instead it can be formed into a new shape. Unlike the other three, take for instance hardness. If a hard object such as wood for example when used with an axe it breaks and it is lead to smithereens. Flammable like is when applied to fire can dramatically explode when hit it obviously breaks.
