CALCULATE: Ken is a bicyclist. He is moving from point C to point D up a hill. His starting velocity is 8m/s east and 1 second l

ater, his final velocity is at 7m/s east. What is his average acceleration? HINT: use the acceleration formula. A. 1 m/s^2. B. 7.5 m/s^2east. C. -1m/s^2 east. D. 10 m/s^2east.

Answer:

C. -1m/s² east

Explanation:

starting velocity u= 8m/s

final velocity  v=7m/s

time t=1second

we know,

average acceleration=(v-u)/t

                                   ={ (7-8)/1 } m/s²

                                   =(-1/1 ) m/s²

                                    =-1 m/s²

the result is negative because his  final velocity is less than  starting velocity. That means there will be deceleration instead of acceleration.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

Explanation:

specific gravity of oil is = \frac{\rho_{oil}}{\rho_w}

\rho_{oil} = 0.85*1000 = 850 kg/m3

we know that

change in pressure  for oil is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density and h is for oil

\Delta p = 850*5 *9.81 = 41,692.5 kPa

change in pressure  for WATER is given as

\Delta p = \rho gh

here density is for water and h is for water

\Delta p = 1000*5 *9.81 = 49,050 kPa

pressure change due to both is given as

\Delta p = 41692.3 + 49050 = 90742.5 N/m2

\Delta p = 90.7 kPa

the oxygen you breathe is made up of two oxygen atoms bound together why is oxygen molecule but not componud
steposvetlana [31]
Having more than one atom in its molecule doesn't make
a substance a compound.  It's only a compound if it has
atoms of different elements in its molecule.

Both atoms in an Oxygen molecule are the same element ... Oxygen.

As an object moves from point A to point B only two forces act onit: one force is nonconservative and does -30 J of work, the ot
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.

This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.

The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.

Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.
