Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf D.\ 6.4\ m/s^2}}$

Explanation:

We need to find the acceleration of the 2 kilogram object. Let's complete this in 2 steps.

<h3>1. Force of 1st Object </h3>

First, we can find the force of the first, 8 kilogram object.

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, force is the product of mass and acceleration.

$F=m \times a$

The mass of the object is 8 kilograms and the acceleration is 1.6 meters per square second.

m= 8 kg
a= 1.6 m/s²

Substitute these values into the formula.

$F= 8 \ kg * 1.6 \ m/s^2$

Multiply.

$F= 12.8 \ kg*m/s^2$

<h3>2. Acceleration of the 2nd Object </h3>

Now, use the force we just calculated to complete the second part of the problem. We use the same formula:

$F= m \times a$

This time, we know the force is 12.8 kilograms meters per square second and the mass is 2 kilograms.

F= 12.8 kg *m/s²
m= 2 kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

$12.8 \ kg*m/s^2= 2 \ kg *a$

Since we are solving for the acceleration, we must isolate the variable (a). It is being multiplied by 2 kg. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 2 kg.

$\frac {12.8 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg}= \frac{2\ kg* a}{2 \ kg}$

$\frac {12.8 \ kg*m/s^2}{2 \ kg}=a$

The units of kilograms cancel.

$\frac {12.8}{2}\ m/s^2=a$

$6.4 \ m/s^2=a$

The acceleration is 6.4 meters per square second.

During a very quick stop, a car decelerates at 6.8 m/s^2. Assume the forward motion of the car corresponds to a positive directi

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

-24.28571 rad/s²

29.57239 revolutions

3.91176 seconds

52.026478 m

Explanation:

$a_t$ = Tangential acceleration = -6.8 m/s²

r = Radius of wheel = 0.28

$\omega_i$ = Initial angular velocity = 95 rad/s

$\theta$ = Angle of rotation

$\omega_f$ = Final angular velocity

t = Time taken

Angular acceleration is given by

$\alpha=\frac{a_t}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=\frac{-6.8}{0.28}\\\Rightarrow \alpha=-24.28571\ rad/s^2$

The angular acceleration is -24.28571 rad/s²

$\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2^2}{2\alpha}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{0^2-95^2}{2\times -24.28571}\\\Rightarrow \theta=185.80885\ rad=185.80885\times \frac{1}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow \theta=29.57239\ rev$

The number of revolutions is 29.57239

$\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{\alpha}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-95}{-24.28571}\\\Rightarrow t=3.91176\ s$

The time it takes for the car to stop is 3.91176 seconds

Linear distance

$s=r\theta\\\Rightarrow s=0.28\times 185.80885\\\Rightarrow s=52.026478\ m$

The distance the car travels is 52.026478 m

Wave power can be regarded as a reliable source of energy because the ocean currents are always moving.

<h3>What can be the challenges of wave power?</h3>

Wave power is a device that can be used to convert the mechanical energy of the ocean waves into electrical energy based on the principle of conservation of energy.

The major challenges that face the use of wave power in electricity generation is the unreliability of the waves which leads to uncertainty in the quantity of power generated Also, the wave direction and direction of ocean currents all limit the amount of power generated by this method. However, in spite of challenges, it can be regarded as a reliable source of energy because the ocean currents are always moving.
