A toy friction car is propelled forward from rest by a girl's hand which causes it to reach a forward velocity of 3.5m/s in 0.4

seconds. it is then rreleased and later stops in 5.6 seconds.
a) what is the acceleration with which the car speeded up?

b)what is the acceleration with which the car slowed down?

c) how far did the toy car travel?

Answer:

a)  Acceleration = 8.75m/s^2

b) Slow down acceleration = 0.625m/s^2

c) Car travels 9.8 m

Explanation:

  Acceleration = Change in velocity/Time

a) Change in velocity = 3.5-0 = 3.5 m/s

   Time = 0.4 seconds

    Acceleration = 3.5/0.4=8.75m/s^2

b) Change in velocity = 0 - 3.5 = -3.5 m/s

   Time = 5.6 seconds

   Acceleration = -3.5/5.6=-0.625m/s^2

   Slow down acceleration = 0.625m/s^2

c) We have equation of motion, v^2=u^2+2as, where u is the initial velocity, u is the final velocity, s is the displacement and a is the acceleration.

 Here v = 0 m/s, u = 3.5 m/s, a = -0.625m/s^2

 Substituting

    0^2=3.5^2-2*0.625*s\\ \\ s=9.8m

  So, car travels 9.8 m

As the army approached the bridge into the city, the commander told them to break step. He did not want the soldiers to march in
Aleks [24]

At a definite point, the bridge would begin oscillating to the matching rhythm as that of the marching footsteps. This oscillation would touch a determined peak when the bridge can no longer tolerate its own power and later collapses. So, soldiers are systematic to break their steps while passing a bridge.

What are some possible materials you could use to make your battery? DON’T FORGET TO include information about why it is importa
Dima020 [189]

Explanation:

Commercially available batteries use a variety of metals and electrolytes. Anodes can be made of zinc, aluminum, lithium, cadmium, iron, metallic lead, lanthanide, or graphite. Cathodes can be made of manganese dioxide, mercuric oxide, nickel oxyhydroxide, lead dioxide or lithium oxide. Potassium hydroxide is the electrolyte used in most battery types, but some batteries use ammonium or zinc chloride, thionyl chloride, sulfuric acid or lithiated metal oxides. The exact combination varies by battery type. For example, common single-use alkaline batteries use a zinc anode, a manganese dioxide cathode, and potassium hydroxide as the electrolyt

What is one advantage of doing a field experiment instead of a laboratory experiment
Flauer [41]

It mimics the real world accurately

Explanation:

Experiments conducted in the field clearly presents the real world at it is to the scientist. Hardly can any part be controlled precisely and this gives a near to perfect scenario.

  • In the laboratory, for example, an organism is isolated from its environment and might not fully display its natural instinct and physiological capabilities.
  • Most laboratory set up are driven towards a model instead of real life settings.
  • The laboratory is more controlled and less varied and might truly represent the real world. It will only portray a part of the real world and series of further tests might have to be carried out to have a better model.
