Please help with 3 questions about acceleration

Physics
1 answer:
Goryan [66]4 years ago
5 0

A great, helpful, useful definition of acceleration is

<em>A = (change in speed) / (time for the change)</em> .   <== you should memorize this

This simple tool will directly solve all 3 problems.

The REASON for assigning these problems for homework is NOT to find the answers.  It's to help YOU find out whether you know this definition, to let you go back and review it if you don't, and to give you a chance to practice using it if you do.  Noticed that if you get the answers from somebody else, you lose all of these benefits.

The only wrinkle anywhere here is in #3, because when you use this definition,      the unit of time has to be the same in both the numerator and the denominator.  

So for #3, you have to EITHER  change the km/hr to km/sec, OR change the 4sec to a fraction of an hour, before you plug anything into the definition.

If an object has an increasing positive acceleration, what can we assume about the forces on it?
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

F = M a    is a vector equation

F has the same sign as A and is in the same direction as the vector a

If a is positive then F must also be positive

What is the formula that describes the magnitude of impulse on an object?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Option C.

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

Explanation:

Impulse is defined by the following the following formula:

Impulse = force (F) × time (t)

Impulse = Ft

From Newton's second law of motion,

Force = change in momentum /time

Cross multiply

Force × time = change in momentum

Recall:

Impulse = Force × time

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Recall:

Momentum = mass x velocity

Momentum = mv

Chang in momentum = mass × change in velocity

Change in momentum = mΔv

Thus,

Impulse = change in momentum

Impulse = mass × change in velocity

Based on the Law of Conservation of Matter, what number should be placed in the box to balance the chemical equation below?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

Step 1: RxN

4Al + 3O₂ → Al₂O₃

Step 2: Balance RxN

We have 4 Al's and 6 O₂'s on the reactant side.

We need the same number of Al's and O₂'s on the product side.

4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃

In uniform circular motion, how does the acceleration change when the speed is increased by a factor of 3? When the radius is de
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The acceleration will become 9/2 times.

a' =9/2 a

Explanation:

We know that acceleration of a particle when it is moving in the circular path is given as

a=\omega^2\ r

r=radius

ω= angular speed

If the speed ω '= 3 ω

If the radius ,r'=\dfrac{r}{2}

The final acceleration =a'

a'=\omega^2'\ r'

a'=(3\omega)^2\times \dfrac{r}{2}

a'=9\omega^2\times \dfrac{r}{2}

a'=\omega^2\times \dfrac{9r}{2}

a'= \dfrac{9r}{2}\times \omega^2\times r

a'=\dfrac{9}{2}a

Therefore the acceleration will become 9/2 times.
