Answer:

Acceleration of the car, a=8\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the car, u = 0 (at rest)

Final speed of the car, v = 40 m/s

Distance covered, s = 100 m

We need to find the acceleration of the car. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2as

a is the acceleration of the car

a=\dfrac{v^2}{2s}

a=\dfrac{(40)^2}{2\times 100}

a=8\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 8\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution

A batter hits a fly ball which leaves the bat 0.89 m above the ground at an angle of 62 ∘ with an initial speed of 29 m/s headin
KatRina [158]

consider the motion in Y-direction

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Sin62 = 25.6 m/s

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

t = time of travel

Y = vertical displacement = - 0.89 m

using the equation

Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

- 0.89 = (25.6) t + (0.5) (- 9.8) t²

t = 5.3 sec


consider the motion along the horizontal direction :

v₀ = initial velocity = 29 Cos62 = 13.6 m/s

a = acceleration = 0 m/s²

t = time of travel = 5.3 sec

X = horizontal displacement =?

using the equation

X = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²

X = (13.6) (5.3) + (0.5) (0) t²

X = 72.1 m


d = distance traveled by the center fielder to catch the ball = 107 - x = 107 - 72.1 = 34.9 m

t = time taken = 5.3 sec

v = speed of center fielder

using the equation

v = d/t

v = 34.9/5.3

v = 6.6 m/s

Which takes place as water cycles from the bottom of the pot toward the top?
Elenna [48]
The option that takes place as water cycles from the bottom of the pot toward the top is that A. thermal energy is transferred. 
As the pot gets warmer and warmer, the heat flows everywhere inside the pot, ultimately reaching the top, and heating the water at the top as well. There is no chemical energy here, and molecules don't gain thermal energy, it is just transferred to the top of the pot.

What happens when you get a concussion?
madreJ [45]
A concussion, which is a form of mild traumatic brain injury, occurs after a blow to the head. The brain is surrounded by fluid and protective membranes called meninges, which usually cushion the brain. During an impact, the brain is pushed against the inside of the skull and can be bruised.
