What is the acceleration of an object with a constant velocity

Zero.

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time.

Since in your case there is no change, there is no acceleration, so it is zero:

Or in formula: <span>a=<span><span>Δv</span>t</span></span>

Where a=acceleration, <span>Δv</span>=change in velocity and t=time

Acceleration is 0 m/s/s, Net force is zero. An object moving at constant velocity does not accelerate and does not have an unbalanced force acting on it.

Answer:

a = 1.666... m/s²

Explanation:

a = v2 - v1 / t2 - t1

a = 21m/s - 14m/s / 6s - 0s

a = 7m/s / 6s

a = 1.666... m/s²

3. The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave has an amplitude of 5.0 V/m. How much radiation energy passes through

True [87]

Answer:

e) $179$ J

Explanation:

$E_{o}$ = Magnitude of electric field = 5 V/m

$A$ = Area of window = 1.5 m²

$c$ = speed of electromagnetic wave = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

$\Delta t$ = time interval = 1 h = 3600 sec

radiation energy is given as

$U = (0.5)\epsilon _{o}E_{o}^{2}cA\Delta t$

$U = (0.5)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(5)^{2}(3\times 10^{8})(1.5)(3600)$

$U = 179$ J

A spring with spring constant 11.5 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A 490 g ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to res

Natalija [7]

Answer:

The time constant is $\tau = 17.5 \ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The spring constant is $k = 11.5 \ N/m$

The mass of the ball is $m_b = 490 \ g = 0.49 \ kg$

The amplitude of the oscillation t the beginning is $x = 6.70 cm = 0.067 \ m$

The amplitude after time t is $x_t = 2.20 cm = 0.022 \ m$

The number of oscillation is $N = 30$

Generally the time taken to attain the second amplitude is mathematically represented as

$t = N * T$ Here T is the period of oscillation

$t = N * 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

=> $t = 30 * 2 * 3.142 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.490}{11.5} }$

=> $t = 38.88 \ s$

Generally the amplitude at time t is mathematically represented as

$x(t) = x e^{-\frac{at}{2m} }$

Here a is the damping constant so

at $t = 38.88 \ s$ , $x_t = 2.20 cm = 0.022 \ m$

So

$0.022 = 0.067 e^{-\frac{a * 38.88}{2 * 0.490} }$

=> $0.3284 = e^{-\frac{a * 38.88}{2 * 0.490} }$

taking natural log of both sides

=> $ln(0.3284 ) = -\frac{a * 38.88}{2 * 0.490} }$

=> $a = 0.028$

Generally the time constant is mathematically represented as

$\tau = \frac{m}{a}$

=> $\tau = \frac{0.490}{ 0.028}$

=> $\tau = 17.5 \ s$
