The initial velocity of the car is 11 m/s.

Explanation:

  • Here, we can use the equations of motions.
  • The first of equation of motion is v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time.
  • The given parameters are,

Final velocity, v = 20 m/s

acceleration of the care, a = 2 m/s^{2}

time, t = 3 s

Initial velocity, u = ?

  • Hence, the equation can be written as u = v - at

once you substitute all these vales, you will get u = 11 m/s

stiv31 [10]
The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.

Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg

F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)

F = 83 N

Why do things become hot or cold?<br> Relate to Thermal Energy and The Law of Conservation of Energy
Mekhanik [1.2K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Things become hot and cold because of the transfer of energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy possessed by an object or system is called thermal energy and heat is the flow of this energy. While the law of conversation of energy states that energy is not destroyed or created, it just transfers from one object to another.  

When a hot object is placed in normal conditions, it transfers heat to the environment until both are at the same temperature and heat transfers from the environment to the cold objects placed in normal conditions.
