If a car change the velocity from 36M/S to 28M/S with an acceleration of -2.0 M/S then how much time does it take for the vehicl

leonid [27]

The time it will take if a car change the velocity from 36m/s to 28m/s with an acceleration of -2.0m/s² is 4s.

<h3>How to calculate deceleration?</h3>

Deceleration is the amount by which a speed or velocity decreases (and so a scalar quantity or a vector quantity).

The deceleration of a body can be calculated using the following formula:

-a = (v - u)/t

Where;

-a = deceleration
v = final velocity
u = initial velocity
t = time in seconds

-2 = (28 - 36)/t

-2t = -8

t = 4s

Therefore, the time it will take if a car change the velocity from 36m/s to 28m/s with an acceleration of -2.0m/s² is 4s.

Describe how refraction concentrates wave energy so that some parts of a beach erode more.

Zigmanuir [339]

Refraction is the bending of the waves which is result of the fact that different parts of the wave reach the water with different speeds because of the angle approaching the shore.

<span>The wave refraction disperses the wave energy in quiet water areas and sand is deposited.<span> </span></span>

A 60kg bicyclist (including the bicycle) is pedaling to the

Fittoniya [83]

a) 4 forces

b) 186 N

c) 246 N

Explanation:

Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:

1) Weight ( $W=mg$ ): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)

2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite

3) Applied force ( $F_A$ ): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward

4) Air drag ( $R$ ): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction

So, we have 4 forces in total.

Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:

$F_{net}=ma$
