Answer: B velocity

Explanation:

Acceleration = Velocity difference / time

Acceleration is a vector it can be happened due to forces of the system. If there is no external force acting on a system. There are no acceleration. If velocity is increasing due to Force its called acceleration If velocity is decreasing its called deceleration

A car travels along a straight line at a constant speed of 53.0 mi/h for a distance d and then another distance d in the same di

Shalnov [3]

A distance of d is covered with 53 mile/hr initially. Time taken to cover this distance t1 = d/53 hour Next distance of d is covered with x mile hours. Time taken to cover this distance t2 = d/x hours. We have average speed = 26.5 mile / hour

= Total distance traveled/ total time taken

= $\frac{2d}{\frac{d}{53}+\frac{d}{x}} = \frac{2}{\frac{1}{53}+\frac{1}{x} } = \frac{106x}{x+53}$

$26.5 = \frac{106x}{x+53} \\ \\ 79.5 x = 1404.5\\ \\ x = 17.67 miles/hour$

If 2000 kg cannon fires 2 kg projectile having muzzle velocity 200 m/s then the KINETIC ENERGY of the CANNON will be ("E4" means

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

M V = m v conservation of momentum (Caps-cannon Small-projectile)

V = m / M * V = 2 / 2000 * 200 m/s = .2 m/s recoil velocity of cannon

KE = 1/2 M V^2 = 2000 / 2 kg * (.2 m/s)^2 = 40 kg m^2/s^2 = 40 J

Determine a formula for the acceleration of the system in terms of mA, mB, θ, and g. Ignore the mass of the cord and pulley. Exp

jekas [21]

Answer:

$a=\frac{mBg-mAgSin\theta}{mA+mB}$

Explanation:

Given two mass on an incline code $mA$ and $mB$ and an angle of inclination $\theta$ . $g$ . Assume that $mA$ is the weight being pulled up and $mB$ the hanging weight.

-The equations of motion from Newton's Second Law are:

$mBg-T=mBa$ where a is the acceleration.

#Substituting for $T$ (tension) gives:

$mBg-mAsin\theta-mAa=mBa$

#and solving for $a:$

$a=\frac{mBg-mAgSin\theta}{mA+mB}$ which is the system's acceleration.

outward from a wall just above floor level. A 1.5 kg box sliding across a frictionless floor hits the end of the spring and comp

sweet [91]

Answer:

v = 0.489 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a box, m = 1.5 kg

The compression in the spring, x = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

Let the spring constant of the spring is 85 N/m

We need to find the velocity of the box (v) when it hit the spring. It is based on the conservation of energy. The kinetic energy of spring before collision is equal to the spring energy after compression i.e.

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{85\times (0.065)^2}{1.5}} \\\\v=0.489\ m/s$

So, the speed of the box is 0.489 m/s.
