The acceleration of the car is stated as -2 m/s², while the deceleration of the car is termed as 2 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by any object in order of decrease in the speed is termed as deceleration. In other words , negative acceleration or acceleration acting in opposite direction to stop the motion of any object is termed as deceleration. The magnitude of acceleration and deceleration is same only the direction is completely opposite to each other. So the negative sign will be obtained for acceleration value of any object whose velocity slows down from initial velocity.

Here , the initial velocity was 60 m/s and the final velocity is slowed down to 40 m/s in time 10 s.

So acceleration = (Final velocity - Initial velocty)/Time

Acceleration = (40-60)/10 = -20/10 = -2 m/s².

Thus, the acceleration of the car is stated as -2 m/s², while the deceleration of the car is termed as 2 m/s².

Calculate the force needed to bring a 1,019-kg car to rest from a speed of 29 m/s in a distance of 118 m
son4ous [18]
Acceleration = ▵v/▵t
Time = d/v
Fisrt calculate time : ( 118/29 ) = 4 seconds
Then calculate acceleration
A = 29/4 = 7.25 m/s²
Now the force.
Force = mass * acceleration.
F= 1,019 * 7.25
F= 7,387 N

The relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity
bonufazy [111]

In linear motion , when a body moves with uniform velocity , in time t , its linear displacement will be ;

S = r∅     S = vt

r∅ =  vt

r.∅ / t = v

As

v = rw

where ∅ = 90° is the angle between between radius vector r  and angular velocity w (omega )

In case ∅ ≠ 90° , we can write v = r w sin∅

It gives us v = w× r
