A car has uniformly accelerated from rest to a speed of 25m/s after traveling 75m. What is its acceleration in m/s^2
Roman55 [17]
<h2><em>So there is two truths given. After an amount of time Ttotal (lets call it ‘t’): </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>The car’s speed is 25m/s </em></h2><h2><em>The distance travelled is 75m </em></h2><h2><em>Then we have the formulas for speed and distance: </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>v = a x t -> 25 = a x t </em></h2><h2><em>s = 0.5 x a x t^2 -> 75 = 0.5 x a x t^2 </em></h2><h2><em>Now, we know that both acceleration and time equal for both truths. So we can say: </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>t = 25 / a </em></h2><h2><em>t^2 = 75 / (0.5 x a) = 150 / a </em></h2><h2><em>Since we don’t want to use square root at 2) we go squared for 1): </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>t^2 = (25 / a) ^2 = 625 / a^2 </em></h2><h2><em>t^2 = 150 / a </em></h2><h2><em>Since t has the same value for both truths we can say: </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>625 / a^2 = 150 / a </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>Thus multiply both sides with a^2: </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>625 = 150 x a, so a = 625 / 150 = 4.17 </em></h2><h2><em> </em></h2><h2><em>We can now calculate t as well t = 25 * 150 / 625 = 6</em></h2>

Study the following reaction carefully. What classification should this reaction have?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Synthesis reaction

Explanation:

Synthesis reaction: two or more compounds combine to form one.

A + B → C

Decomposition reaction: one compound forms two or more.

C → A + B

Single replacement reaction: an element in one compound is replaced with another element.

AB + C → AC + B

Double replacement reaction: elements in two compounds replace each other.

AB + CD → AC + BD

Pls help
belka [17]

Answer:

2156 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done = Combined mass of the bucket and water×height×gravity.

W = (M+m)hg............................. Equation 1

Where M = mass of water, m = mass of the bucket, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: M = 20 kg, m = 2 kg, h = 10 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these  value into equation 1

W = (20+2)×10×9.8

W = 22×98

W = 2156 J

Two identical 9.10-g metal spheres (small enough to be treated as particles) are hung from separate 300-mm strings attached to t
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

n = 1.266\times 10^{12}

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of sphere is 10 g

Angle between string and vertical axis is \theta = 13 degree

thickness of string  300 mm = 0.3 m

sin\theta =\frac{2}{0.3 m}

r =0.3 sin 13 = 0.067 m

Fe = \frac{ kq_1 q-2}{d^2}

Fe = \frac{kq^2}{(2r)^2} = mg tan\theta

q^2 =  mg tan\theta \frac{(2r)^2}{k}

    = 0.0091 \times 9.8 tan13 \times \frac{(2\times 0.067)^2}{9\times 10^9}

q^2 = 4.10\times 10^{-14}

q = 2.026 \times 10^{-7} C

q = ne

n = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}}{2.02\times 10^{-7}}

n = 1.266\times 10^{12}
