We are given that:

m = 5.5 kg

d = 12 m

t = 1.75 s

Using the distance formula, we can get the acceleration of the ball:

d = (1/2) a*t^2

Rearranging:

a = 2d/t^2 = 2*(12 m)/(1.75 s)^2

a = 7.837 m/s^2

 

<span>Using Newton’s 2nd law, force is defines as:</span>

F = ma

F = 5.5 kg (7.837 m/s^2)

<span>F = 43.10 N</span>

1. Millions of gallons of water are wasted by households in America on a yearly basis as a result of wastage of water in the laundry rooms. There are many ways by which water can be conserved in the laundry room, these include:
1. Using a high efficiency washing machine.
2. Choosing the right load sizes and cycles when using washing machines.
3. Wearing clothes more than once before washing them.
4. Collection of grey and rain water.
5. Treat difficult stains before washing them.

2. Using a high efficiency machine will ensure that water is used efficiently. A high efficiency washing machine uses much less water and save about 6,000 gallons of water for an average family on a yearly basis according to Environmental Protection Agency. 
Grey water refers to water that have used once. Water that has been used for washing clothes or bathing can be collected again, recycle and use for some household needs such as gardening, flushing of toilet, etc. Water tanks can also be installed to collect rain water which can be used for washing clothes. This will have positive effect on household overall water consumption.

a train engineer started the train from a standstill and sped up to 5 meters per second, she then rounded a corner at a constant
olasank [31]

for acceleration we can define that rate of change in velocity is know as acceleration

So whenever velocity of train is changing with time we can say train is accelerating

Now here if initially train is standstill then after some time its speed is 5 m/s

so here the train is accelerated first time

Then on straight path its speed changed from 5 m/s to 10 m/s so here train gets accelerated second time

After this train chugged around a curve with same speed 10 m/s

SO here since train is moving in curve so here its direction of velocity is continuously changing and this type of acceleration is known as centripetal acceleration

SO this is accelerated Third time

Then its speed decreases and it comes to speed of 5 m/s from 10 m/s

So here it is acceleration of train for Fourth time

Then finally train comes to stop so again its speed changed from 5 m/s to 0

so this is acceleration of train Fifth time

So total train will accelerate 5 times in whole path
