A car traveling at 26 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 5 seconds. What is its acceleration?

Acceleration or Deceleration = Velocity/Time
Deceleration = 26/5
Deceleration = 5.2 m/s²

Its supposed to be What is its "deceleration'' not acceleration.

Write any two important of gravitational force?

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational force is important because:

1. because of the gravitational force of the earth, the atmosphere is present around its surface, which is crucial for sustainability of life on earth

2. we are able to perform motion due to the force of gravity

Answer:

The resultant velocity is $v_t=10 knots$

Explanation:

Apply the law of conservation of momentum

$M_L *v_L + M_f * V_f = (M_L + M_f) v_t$

Where $M_L$ is the mass of the Luxury Liner = 40,000 ton

$v_L$ is the velocity of Luxury Liner = 20 knots due west

$M_f$ mass of freighter = 60,000

$v_f$ is the velocity of freighter = 10 knots due north

Apply the law of conservation of momentum toward the the west direction

$v_f = 0 \ knots$

So the equation would be

$M_L *v_L = (M_L + M_f) v_t$

Substituting values

$40000*20 = (40000+ 60000)v_t_w$

Where $v_t_w$ the final velocity due west

Making $v_t_w$ the subject

$v_t_w = \frac{40,000* 20}{(40000 + 60000)}$

$= 8 \ knots$

Apply the law of conservation of momentum toward the the north direction

$v_L = 0 \ knots$

So the equation would be

$M_f *v_f = (M_L + M_f) v_t_n$

Where $v_t_n$ the final velocity due north

Making $v_t_n$ the subject

$v_t_n = \frac{60,000* 10}{(40000 + 60000)}$

$= 6 \ knots$

The resultant velocity is

$v_t = \sqrt{v_t_w^2 + v_t_n^2}$

$= \sqrt{8^2 +6^2}$

$v_t=10 knots$

3- (a) What is the period of rotation of Earth in seconds? (b) What is the angular velocity of Earth? (c) Given that Earth has a

ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours. In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians. So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s
