Answer:

4 m/s² or 4(m/s)/s

Explanation:

the equations of motion are

S= ut +½at²

v² = u²+ 2as

v = u + at

s = (u+v)/2 × t

From the parameters given

u = 0m/s this is because it starts from rest

Distance (s)  = 18m

Time (t)  = 3s

Based on this the first equation would be used

s = ut + ½at²

Input values

18 = 0×3 + ½ × a x 3²

18 = 0 + 9a/2

18 = 4.5a

Divide both sides by 4.5

a = 18 / 4.5 m/s²

a = 4 m/s² or 4(m/s)/s

I hope this was helpful, please mark as brainliest

In an intergalactic competition, spaceship pilots compete to see who can cover the distance between two asteroids in the short-
pogonyaev

Answer:

a)  truc is C,  b) correct result is the B

Explanation:

As the speed of the competition is very high, for the judges the speed is

           v = d / t

           v = 3 109 m / 20

           v = 1.5 108 m / s

This is half the speed of light. For these high speeds we must use the relations of special relativity.

For the time          t = to γ

For distance         L = Lo / γ

                            γ = √ (1-v2 / c2)

Own time and distance (to and Lo) corresponds to the observer who is not moving the judges in this case

Let's look for the range value

                     γ = 1 / √ (1 - (1.5 / 3) 2) = 1 / 0.866 = 1.15

The time              t = 20 1.15 = 23 s

The distance       L = 3 10 9 /1.15 = 2.60 109 m

From these results we see that time increases and the distance is shorter.

Let's review the claims

A) False. It's the opposite

B) False

C) True. It is according to the result found

D) False.

In the nuclear fusion process, we will also use the special relativity that has a relationship between energy and mass

         ΔE = c² Δm

As in the process energy is released, for the law of conservation of the mass of energy to be fulfilled, the total mass of the products, He atom, must be reduced.

Therefore the correct result is the B

A child drops a ball from a window. The ball strikes the ground in 3.0 seconds. What is the velocity ofthe ball the instant befo
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: The velocity of the ball is 30.0 m/s

This can be calculated by using the value of acceleration as 10.0 m/s2 in free fall and the given time of 3.0 seconds. To get the velocity, one will have to multiply the acceleration with the given time and the quotient would result to 30.0 m/s. Mostly all object regardless of their mass, fall to earth with the same acceleration in the absence of air resistance and as the child drops the ball from a window, it gains speed as it falls.

A perfectly elastic collision occurs between a 15.0-kg mass traveling at 3.50 m/s and a 9.00-kg mass traveling at 2.35 m/s. if t
BaLLatris [955]
Momentum is conserved in a collision. Momentum is mass*velocity, so you can find your answer by calculating initial and final momentums and setting them equal to each other.

15kg * 3.50 m/s + 9kg * 2.35 m/s = 73.65 kg m/s

73.65 = 9 * 2.8 + 15x

solve for x
x= 3.23

The final velocity is 3.23 m/s

Which describes acceleration involving only a change in direction?
Viefleur [7K]
If we consider any system moving with u<span>niform circular motion we can notice that the MAGNITUDE of the accelaration remains constant. However,  there is a change in the direction of the acceleration at every instant of time .

 As the object moves through the circle the acceleration changes its direction always pointing to the center of the circle.</span>
