Displacement is to velocity as _______ is to acceleration

1 answer:

7 0

Velocity is the rate of change of displacement and both of them are vectors. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity and both of them are vectors. So the answer is d.

Nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. Is this process endothermic or exothermic?

Anna71 [15]

Explanation:

Exothermic reaction is defined as the reaction in which release of heat takes place. This also means that in an exothermic reaction, bond energies of reactants is less than the bond energies of products.

Hence, difference between the energies between the reactants and products releases as heat and therefore, enthalpy of the system will decrease.

Whereas in an endothermic reaction, heat is supplied from outside and absorbed by the reactant molecules. Hence, enthalpy of the system increases.

As water acts as a coolent and when fuel rods in a nuclear reactor are immersed in it then heat created by coolent is absorbed by water and then it changes into steam.

Since, absorption of heat occurs in the nuclear reactor. Therefore, it is an endothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that nuclear reactors use fuel rods to heat water and generate steam. This process is endothermic.

A bullet with mass 1.0kg and velocity 180 m/s is brought to rest in 0.02 s by a sandbag.assuming constant acceleration in the sa

kotykmax [81]

Hello
The bullet is moving by uniformly accelerated motion.
The initial velocity is $v_i=180~m/s$ , the final velocity is $v_i=0~m/s$ , and the total time of the motion is $\Delta t=0.02~s$ , so the acceleration is given by
$a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{\Delta t} = -9000~m/s^2$
where the negative sign means that is a deceleration.
Therefore we can calculate the total distance covered by the bullet in its motion using
$S=v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2 = 180~m/s \cdot 0.02~s + \frac{1}{2}(-9000~m/s^2)(0.02~s)^2=1.8~m$
So, the bullet penetrates the sandbag 1.8 meters.

Two 10 kg pucks head straight towards each other with velocities of 10 m/s and -20 m/s. They collide and stick together. Calcula

RUDIKE [14]

The final velocity of the two pucks is -5 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.

In fact, in absence of external force, the total momentum of the two pucks before and after the collision must be conserved - so we can write:

$m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1 +m_2)v$
