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!

blondinia [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electron's kinetic energy = 2 eV

= 2 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

1/2 m v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

1/2 x 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ x v² = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁹

v² = .703 x 10¹²

v = .8385 x 10⁶ m/s

Electrons revolve in a circular orbit when forced to travel in a magnetic field whose radius can be expressed as follows

r = mv / Bq

where m , v and q are mass , velocity and charge of electron .

here given magnetic field B = 90 mT

= 90 x 10⁻³ T

Putting these values in the expression above

r =  mv / Bq

= \frac{9\times10^{-31}\times.8385\times10^6}{90\times10^{-3}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}

= .052 mm.

How could you increase the force advantage of a lever?Select one:a. Make the effort length longer.b. Make the effort length shor
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

The ideal mechanical advantage of a lever (IMA) is given by:

IMA=\frac{Le}{Lr}

Where:

Le = Effort of the arm

Lr = Resistance arm.

Therefore, we can increase the force adventage by increasing the effort arm or reducing the load arm

Answer:

a. Make the effort length longer.

Water flows from the bottom of a storage tank at a rate of r(t) = 300 − 6t liters per minute, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 50. Find the amount
SSSSS [86.1K]

r(t) models the water flow rate, so the total amount of water that has flowed out of the tank can be calculated by integrating r(t) with respect to time t on the interval t = [0, 35]min

∫r(t)dt, t = [0, 35]

= ∫(300-6t)dt, t = [0, 35]

= 300t-3t², t = [0, 35]

= 300(35) - 3(35)² - 300(0) + 3(0)²

= 6825 liters

how did we discover how to brake the sound barior and why did we not go as fast as the speed of light
quester [9]

The problem of the "sound barrier" has to do with moving through
air, and the things the air does when you try to push it out of the
way faster than the speed of sound.  Moving through air faster
than sound was an engineering and technological problem, not
a scientific one.

Concerning light, that's about 874 thousand times faster.
