Answer:

Acceleration of the car is -5\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of the car, u = 20 m/s

Finally, it brought to rest, v = 0

Time taken, t = 4 s

We need to find the average acceleration over this time interval. The acceleration of an object is given by following formula as :

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

a=\dfrac{-(20\ m/s)}{4\ s}          

a=-5\ m/s^2

So, the car is decelerating at 5\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a circuit with a main wire that branches into two other wires. If the current is 10 A in the main wire and 4 A in one o
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

6A

Explanation:

Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) states that for a parallel path circuit with current flow the sum of the current entering the circuit's junction is equal to the sum of the current moving away from it.

That is 10A enters the junction

and 4A is observed in one of the two branches, that means

10A - 4A = 6A the current in the other branch

The brick wall (of thermal conductivity 1.12 W/m · ◦ C) of a building has dimensions of 2.8 m by 5 m and is 8 cm thick. How much
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

If H be the heat flowing in time t through an area of A having thickness d

H = k A x ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) t / d  , k is thermal conductivity , ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) is temperature difference of walls

putting the given values

= (1.12 x 2.8x 5 x 9 x 16.7 x 60 x 60) / .08

= 1.06 x 10⁸ J .
