A car is initially traveling at 17 m/s when the driver steps down hard on the gas pedal

Physics
1 answer:
ddd [48]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

29 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, i.e, the change in velocity per unit time.

The driver made the car to accelerate at 3 m/s^2. That means than in every second the velocity of the car increased by 3 m/s. Therefore in four seconds its velocity would increase by 3m/s x 4 = 12m/s. Starting with an initial velocity of 17 m/s the final velocity would be 17 m/s + 12 m/s = 29 m/s.

A ____ is the time required for one half of the nuclei in a radio- ____ isotope to decay.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

A half-life is the time required for one half of the nuclei in a radio- active isotope to decay.

Explanation:

A radio-active isotope is an isotope which undergoes radioactive decay.

Radioactive decay is a spontaneous process in which the nucleus of an atom changes its state (turning into a different nucleus, or de-exciting), emitting radiation, which can be of three different types: alpha, beta or gamma.

The half-life of a radio-active isotope is the time required for half of the nuclei of the initial sample to decay.

The law of radio-active decay can be expressed as follows:

N(t) = N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^{t/t_{1/2}}

where

N(t) is the number of undecayed nuclei left at time t

N0 is the initial number of nuclei

t is the time

t_{1/2} is the half-life

We see that when t=t_{1/2} (that means, when 1 half-life has passed), the number of undecayed nuclei left is

N(t) = N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^{t_{1/2}/t_{1/2}}=N_0 (\frac{1}{2})^1=\frac{N_0}{2}

So, half of the initial nuclei.

A car covers 120 km in 3 hours calculate its speed in m/s​
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

11.1 m/s

Explanation:

120 km = 120 x 1,000 = 120,000 m

3 hours = 3 x 60 x 60 = 3600 x 3 = 10,800 s

speed = 120,000 / 10,800

= 1200/108

= 11.1 m/s

food product with 10 kg mass is being transported to thesurface of the moon,where the acceleration due to gravity is1.624 m/s2;
larisa [96]

Answer:

In SI units 98.1 N, 16.24 N

English units 22.053861 lbf, 3.6509144 lbf

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity

m = Mass = 10 kg

Weight on Earth

W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=10\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow W=98.1\ N

Converting to lbf

98.1\times 0.22481=22.053861\ lbf

On Moon

W=10\times 1.624\\\Rightarrow W=16.24\ N

Converting to lbf

16.24\times 0.22481=3.6509144\ lbf

In SI units 98.1 N, 16.24 N

English units 22.053861 lbf, 3.6509144 lbf
