Answer:20s
To find speed we have to divide speed and distance
5=100/?
100/5=20

6. If a vehicle needs 5s to complete 15m. Find the mean speed of it?

Karolina [17]

Answer:

3m/s

Explanation:

Time=5s

Distance =15m

Speed=distance/time

Putting the values

Speed=15m/5s

Speed=3m/s is the answer

A bus initially moving at 20 m/s with an acceleration of -4m/s² for 5

Alborosie

Answer:

50m; 0m/s.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 20m/s

Acceleration, a = - 4m/s²

Time, t = 5secs

To find the displacement, we would use the second equation of motion;

$S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$S =20*5 + \frac{1}{2}*(-4)*5^{2}$

$S =100 + (-2)*25$

$S =100 - 50$

S = 50m

Next, to find the final velocity, we would use the third equation of motion;

$V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS$

Where;

V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.

U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.

a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$V^{2} = 20^{2} + 2(-4)*50$

$V^{2} = 400 - 400$

$V^{2} = 0$

V = 0m/s

Therefore, the displacement of the bus is 50m and its final velocity is 0m/s.

What is the kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 50kg and is and it is traveling at a rate of 60m/s.

liq [111]

Answer:

90,000 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be found using the following formula.

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where m is the mass in kilograms and v is the velocity in m/s.

We know the object has a mass of 50 kilograms. We also know it is a traveling at a rate of 60 m/s. Velocity is the speed of something, so the velocity of the object is 60 m/s.

m=50

v=60

Substitute these values into the formula.

$KE=\frac{1}{2}*50*60^2$

First, evaluate the exponent: 60^2. 60^2 is the same as multiplying 60, 2 times.

60^2=60*60=3,600

$KE=\frac{1}{2}*50*3,600$

Multiply 50 and 3,600

$KE=\frac{1}{2}*180,000$

Multiply 1/2 and 3,600, or divide 3,600 by 2.

$KE=90,000$

Add appropriate units. Kinetic energy uses Joules, or J.

$KE=90,000 Joules$

The kinetic energy of the object is 90,000 Joules

Harry and ron set up this experiment with a glider, whose mass they have measured to be 565 g, and seven washers hanging from th

svetlana [45]

Let's call $m=565~g=0.565~kg$ the mass of the glider and $m_w=7\cdot12~g =84~g=0.084~kg$ the total mass of the seven washers hanging from the string.
The net force on the system is given by the weight of the hanging washers:
$F_{net} = m_w g$
For Newton's second law, this net force is equal to the product between the total mass of the system (which is $m+m_w$ ) and the acceleration a:
$F_{net}=(m+m_w)a$
So, if we equalize the two equations, we get
$m_w g = (m+m_w)a$
and from this we can find the acceleration:
$a= \frac{m_w g}{(m+m_w)} = \frac{0.084~kg \cdot 9.81~m/s^2}{(0.565~kg+0.084~kg)}=1.27~m/s^2$
