A car starts to move from rest and covers a distance of 360m in one minute. Calculate the acceleration of the car.
1 answer:
<h2>The acceleration of car is 0.2 ms⁻²</h2>
Explanation:
When the car moves , the distance covered is calculated by the relation
S = u t + a t²
In this question u = 0 , because car was at rest initially
Thus S = a t²
here S is displacement and a is the acceleration of car
Therefore 360 = a ( 60 )²
Because time taken is one minute or 60 seconds
Therefore a =
or a = 0.2 m s⁻²

Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
height above which the rock is thrown up,
initial velocity of projection,
let the gravity on the other planet be g'
The time taken by the rock to reach the top height on the exoplanet:
where:
final velocity at the top height = 0
(-ve sign to indicate that acceleration acts opposite to the velocity)
The time taken by the rock to reach the top height on the earth:
Height reached by the rock above the point of throwing on the exoplanet:
where:
final velocity at the top height = 0
Height reached by the rock above the point of throwing on the earth:
The time taken by the rock to fall from the highest point to the ground on the exoplanet:
(during falling it falls below the cliff)
here:
initial velocity= 0
Similarly on earth:
Now the required time difference:
