Acceleration=(final velocity-initial velocity)/time
therefore
(34-0)/12
=2.83m/s

Hey!

u= 0 m/s
v=34m/s
t=12s
a=?

Using the first equation of motion,

v-u=at
34-0=a×12
34=12a
34/12=a
a=2.83 m/s^2

Hope it helps...!!!

I believe that the first one is correct because if you have a ball that Weighs 5 pounds and you push it down a ramp it will hit the end with more force than a ball that weighs 2 pounds

The maximum distance from the Earth to the Sun (at aphelion) is 1.521 1011 m, and the distance of closest approach (at perihelio

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

29274.93096 m/s

$2.73966\times 10^{33}\ J$

$-5.39323\times 10^{33}\ J$

$2.56249\times 10^{33}\ J$

$-5.21594\times 10^{33}$

Explanation:

$r_p$ = Distance at perihelion = $1.471\times 10^{11}\ m$

$r_a$ = Distance at aphelion = $1.521\times 10^{11}\ m$

$v_p$ = Velocity at perihelion = $3.027\times 10^{4}\ m/s$

$v_a$ = Velocity at aphelion

m = Mass of the Earth = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

M = Mass of Sun = $1.9889\times 10^{30}\ kg$

Here, the angular momentum is conserved

$L_p=L_a\\\Rightarrow r_pv_p=r_av_a\\\Rightarrow v_a=\frac{r_pv_p}{r_a}\\\Rightarrow v_a=\frac{1.471\times 10^{11}\times 3.027\times 10^{4}}{1.521\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow v_a=29274.93096\ m/s$

Earth's orbital speed at aphelion is 29274.93096 m/s

Kinetic energy is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv_p^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}(3.027\times 10^{4})^2\\\Rightarrow K=2.73966\times 10^{33}\ J$

Kinetic energy at perihelion is $2.73966\times 10^{33}\ J$

Potential energy is given by

$P=-\frac{GMm}{r_p}\\\Rightarrow P=-\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{1.471\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow P=-5.39323\times 10^{33}$

Potential energy at perihelion is $-5.39323\times 10^{33}\ J$

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}(29274.93096)^2\\\Rightarrow K=2.56249\times 10^{33}\ J$

Kinetic energy at aphelion is $2.56249\times 10^{33}\ J$

Potential energy is given by

$P=-\frac{GMm}{r_a}\\\Rightarrow P=-\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\times 5.98\times 10^{24}}{1.521\times 10^{11}}\\\Rightarrow P=-5.21594\times 10^{33}$

Potential energy at aphelion is $-5.21594\times 10^{33}\ J$

A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 1.4 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of crown glass that has a thickness of 3.0 cm. Light

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

t = 2.13 10-10 s , d = 6.39 cm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index

n = c / v

Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.

The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is

v = c / n

As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

v = d / t

t = d / v

t = d n / c

Let's look for the times on each sheet

Ice

t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸

t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s

Crown glass (BK7)

t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸

t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s

Time is a scalar therefore it is additive

t = t₁ + t₂

t = (0.6113 + 1.52) 10⁻¹⁰

t = 2.13 10-10 s

The distance traveled by this time in a vacuum would be

d = c t

d = 3 10⁸ 2.13 10⁻¹⁰

d = 6.39 10⁻² m

d = 6.39 cm
