We are given the following conditions:
v_{0} = 28m/s

t = 4s

v_{f} = 0m/s

Since we are told it slows down at a constant rate, we know we are dealing with uniformed accelerated motion, or UAM for short.

So we look at our kinematics equation that contains the given variables.

v_f = v_0 + at

This contains our target variable and our initial conditions. Plug and chug, we get:

(0m/s) = (28m/s) + a(4s) -28m/s = (4s)*a a = -7m/s^2

Thus the answer is:

a = -7m/s^2

Hope this helps!

10. Explain the principle of electric motor. Write its uses.
konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

The principle of an electric motor is based on the current carrying conductor which produces magnetic field around it. A current carrying conductor is placed perpendicular to the magnetic field so that it experiences a force.

The largest electric motors are used for ship propulsion, pipeline compression and pumped-storage applications with ratings reaching 100 megawatts. Electric motors are found in industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools and disk drives.
