A roller coaster car speed is 4 m/s, but 3 seconds later its speed is 22 m/s. What is its average acceleration?

The velocity increased from 4 m/s to 22 m/s in 3 seconds. 18 m/s in 3 seconds so the average acceleration is change in velocity divided by time. 18 m/s divided by 3 seconds = 6 m/s^2

In a Little League baseball game, the 145 g ball enters the strike zone with a speed of 17.0 m/s . The batter hits the ball, and
VMariaS [17]

Hi there!

Impulse = Change in momentum

I = Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Where:

m = mass of object (kg)

vf = final velocity (m/s)

vi = initial velocity (m/s)

Begin by converting grams to kilograms:

1 kg = 1000g ⇒ 145g = .145kg

Now, plug in the given values. Remember to assign directions since velocity is a vector. Let the initial direction be positive and the opposite be negative.

I = (.145)(-20 - 17) = -5.365 Ns

The magnitude is the absolute value, so:

|-5.365| = 5.365 Ns

Solve this physics for me <br>please with steps<br>​
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The answers are located in each of the explanations showed below

Explanation:

a)

(i) Surface Tension: The tensile force that causes this tension acts parallel to the surface and is due to the forces of attraction between the molecules of the liquid. The magnitude of this force per unit of length is called surface tension.

σ = F/l [N/m]

where:

F = force [N]

l = length [m]

σ = Surface Tension [N/m]

(ii) Frequency is the number of repetitions per unit of time of any periodic event.

f = 1/T [1/s] or [s^-1] or [Hz]

where:

T = period [s] or [seconds]

f = frecuency [Hz] or [hertz]

(iii) Each of the units will be shown for each variable

v = velocity [m/s]

a = accelertion [m/s^2]

s = displacement [m]

[\frac{m}{s} ]^{2} =[\frac{m}{s} ]^{2} + 2* [\frac{m}{s^{2} } ]*[m]\\

[\frac{m^2}{s^2} ] =[\frac{m^2}{s^2} ] +  [\frac{m^{2} }{s^{2} } ]

[\frac{m^2}{s^2} ]

b) To find the velocity we must derivate the function X with respect to t because this derivate will give us the equation for the velocity, it means:

v=\frac{dx}{dt} \\v = 0.75*2*t+5*t

(i) X = 0.75*t^{2} +5*t+1\\X = 0.75*(4)^{2} +5*(4)+1\\X = 33 [m]

ii) replacing in the derivated equation.

v=1.5*(4)+5\\v=11[m/s]

iii) the average velocity is defined by the expresion v = x/t

v = \frac{x-x_{0} }{t-t_{0} } \\

x_{0}=0.75(2)^{2}+5(2)+1 \\ x_{0}=14[m]\\x=0.75(7)^{2}+5(7)+1\\x=72.75[m]\\t = 7 [s]t0= 2[s]Now replacing:[tex]v_{prom} = \frac{72.75-14}{7-2} \\v_{prom} = 11.75 [m/s]

a) Pascal's principle or Pascal's law, where the pressure exerted on an incompressible fluid and in balance within a container of indeformable walls is transmitted with equal intensity in all directions and at all points of the fluid.

Therefore:

P1 = pressure at point 1.

P2 = pressure at point 2.

P1 = F1/A1

P2= F2/A2

\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} }=\frac{F_{2}}{A_{2} }  \\F_{1}=A_{1}*(\frac{F_{2}}{A_{2} })

b) One of the applications of the surface tension is the <u>capillarity</u> this is a property of liquids that depends on their surface tension (which, in turn, depends on the cohesion or intermolecular force of the liquid), which gives them the ability to climb or descend through a capillary tube.

Other examples of surface tension:

The mosquitoes that can sit on the water.

A clip on the water.

Some leaves that remain floating on the surface.

Some soaps and detergents on the water.

1. Was your hypothesis correct? Why or why not?
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

1. Upon analysis of the results, a hypothesis can be rejected or modified, but it can never be proven to be correct 100 percent of the time. For example, relativity has been tested many times, so it is generally accepted as true, but there could be an instance, which has not been encountered, where it is not true.

2.Mass is the amount of matter in a body, normally measured in grams or kilograms etc. Weight is a force that pulls on a mass and is measured in Newtons. So on Earth, Weight would be your (mass x acceleration( 9.8 ) . Density, there are lots of kinds of density I guess, but the one you are talking about is density = mass / volume. Density basically means how much mass is occupied in a specific volume or space. Different materials of the same size may have different masses because of its density. Density in this case is measured in kg / m^3 or kg / L or g / m^3 etc where the numerator is a unit of mass and the denominator a unit of volume.

3.The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.

4.  An object will float if the gravitational (downward) force is less than the buoyancy (upward) force. So, in other words, an object will float if it weighs less than the amount of water it displaces. This explains why a rock will sink while a huge boat will float.

The direction of an electric field is the direction (5 points)
vlabodo [156]

The direction of an electric field is determined from the behavior of a positive test charge that is set free in the electric field.This charge moves along a distinct vector showing the direction of the electric field  Therefore the answer is b. a positive charge will move in the field.
