A great, helpful, useful definition of acceleration is

A = (change in speed) / (time for the change) . <== 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.

An object dropped from rest from the top of a tall building on planet x falls a distance d(t)18 left parenthesis t right parenth

melamori03 [73]

displacement is given by equation

$d = 18t^2$

now at t = 5 s the position is

$d_1 = 18 *5^2 = 450 m$

similarly position at t = 9 s

$d_2 = 18*9^2 = 1458 m$

so the displacement of object in given interval of time will be

$d = 1458 - 450 = 1008 m$

time interval

$\delta t = 9 - 5 = 4 s$

now the average velocity will be given as

$v = \frac{\delta x}{\delta t}$

$v = \frac{1008}{4} = 252 m/s$

so its average speed is 252 m/s

Why is chopping carrots a physical change ?

astra-53 [7]

Answer: Chopping carrots is a chemical change because you aren't changing the property its substance, you are just chopping it up, there is no new substance being formed.

Which of the following scientific terms has the most evidence and observations?

Elza [17]

The correct answer should be B. a scientific law. A hypothesis is a belief by the scientist that may or may not be proven so it exists before evidence and observation, while a theory comes later. However, a law is observation itself and is always evidence of itself. There is no belief or lack of knowledge as to what will happen when it comes to laws. The law of action and reaction has plenty evidence and can easily be observed.
