11. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 10 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his acceleration ? Is this acceleration higher than that of
Marat540 [252]

a =  \frac{v - u}{t}

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

the acceleration of the cyclist is

\frac{10 - 0}{3}  = 3.333333....

approximately 3.33 m/s^2

the acceleration of the car is

\frac{40 - 0 }{8}  = 5.0

5.0 m/s^2

5.0 > 3.33 \\ so \:  the \: answer  \: is \: no

Please help I'll mark brainliest!!!!

This question is based on the fundamental assumption of  vector direction.

A vector is  a physical quantity which has  magnitude as well direction  for its complete specification.

The magnitude of a physical quantity is simply a  numerical number .Hence it can not be negative.

A negative vector is a vector which comes into existence when it is opposite to our assumed direction with respect to any other vector.  For instance, the vector is taken positive if it is along + X axis and negative if it is along - X axis.

As per the first option it is given that a vector is negative if its magnitude is greater than 1. It is not correct as magnitude play no role in it.

The second option tells that the magnitude of the vector is less than 1. Magnitude can not be negative. So this is also wrong.

Third one tells that a vector is negative if its displacement is along north. It does not give any detail information about the negativity of a vector.

In a general sense we assume that vertically downward motion  is negative and vertically upward is positive. In case of a falling object the motion is  vertically downward. So the velocity of that object is negative .

So last   option is  partially  correct  as  the vector can be negative depending on our choice of co-ordinate system.

A flow is isentropically expanded to supersonic speeds in a convergent-divergent nozzle. The reservoir and exit pressures are 1.
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Ae/A* = 1.115

Explanation:

Let the reservoir pressure be  p_0

Let the exit  pressure be p_e

Ratio of reservoir pressure and exit pressure

\frac{p_o}{p_e} = \frac{1}{0.3143}

  = 3.182

For the above value of pressure ratio

Obtain the area ratio from the isentropic flow table

Ae/A* = 1.115

The value of pressure ratio is Ae/A* = 1.115
