Plz i need help for the 5 problems. plz show the work!!!
Artemon [7]

Answer:

1.   3 m/s^{2}

2.   1.5 m/s^{2}

3.   3 seconds

4.   0 m/s^{2}

5.   2.2 seconds

Explanation:

(1)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making a the subject we have

a=\frac {v-u}{t}

Substituting u=0 since it’s at rest, v=30m/s and t=10 seconds

a = \frac {30-0}{10}=3 m/s^{2}

(2)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making a the subject we have

a=\frac {v-u}{t}

Substituting u=10m/s, v=22m/s and t=8 seconds

a = \frac {22-10}{8}=1.5 m/s^{2}

(3)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making t the subject we have

t=\frac {v-u}{a}

Substituting u=0m/s since at rest, v=15m/s and a=5 \frac {m}{s^{2}}

= \frac {15-0}{5}=3s

(4)

When initial and final velocity are constant, there’s no acceleration as proven below

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making a the subject we have

a=\frac {v-u}{t}

Substituting u=20 since it’s at rest, v=20m/s and t=10 seconds

a = \frac {20-20}{10}=0 m/s^{2}

(5)

From v= u + at where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

Making t the subject we have

t=\frac {v-u}{a}

Substituting u=9m/s since at rest, v=0m/s and a=-4.1 \frac {m}{s^{2}}

= \frac {0-9}{-4.1}=2.2s

What is the ratio of the intensities of an earthquake P wave passing through the Earth and detected at two points 14 km and 49 k
Molodets [167]

Answer:

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25

Explanation:

r_1 = 14 km

r_2 = 49 km

Intensity of a wave is inversely proportional to distance

I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}

So,

\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{r_2^2}{r_1^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{49^2}{14^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25

The ratio of the intensities is \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=12.25

A soccer player kicks a ball at rest on the
scoundrel [369]

The kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy changes during its movement from ground to the top height.

<h3>What happens to kinetic and potential energy while motion?</h3>

When the ball moves upward, its gravitational potential energy is increases and kinetic energy begins to decrease but when the ball falls towards the earth, its gravitational potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. When the ball collides with the ground, the kinetic energy is transformed into other forms of energy.
