How do I determine which object has the greatest acceleration?

To determine which object has the greatest acceleration, you would use the formula:

acceleration = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / Time

Just plug-in values for what you have and see which one has the greatest acceleration. If you're given velocity-time graphs, then the one with the steepest slope would have the greatest acceleration.

Using F=ma, explain why a train is more difficult to start moving and more difficult to bring to a stop than an average sized ca
seropon [69]

Answer:

M_Train>> m_car    a_train <a_car

Explanation:

To start the movement of the train or the car, the motorcycle applies a force on the wheels, which starts the acceleration in the case of the train, it has a much greater mass than that of the car, for which to obtain the same acceleration necessary a much greater force

         a = F / m

as the mass of the train is greater than that of the car.

         a_train <a_car

Something similar happens when the vehicles stop, the engine stops applying force forward and the brakes apply a force backward that creates a negative acceleration that slows down, again as the mass of the train is much greater than the of the car its negative acceleration is much less.

   

It is good to clarify that to compensate for this the trains have a braking system on all wheels

A steel ball and a wooden ball of the same diameter are released together from the top of a tower. In the absence of air resista
ella [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.
