To answer this question, you need to know the definition of Relative Motion:
 The motion is relative when it depends on a reference point or referencial system. If you know the reference point, you can determine the velocity of an object.
 If you are sitting on your chair, you are not moving relative to it (Your speed is 0 km/s); but as you know, our planet moves around the Sun (Traslation Movement) with a speed of 30.0 km/s. Therefore, you are moving 30.0 km/s relative to the sun.

A car is stopped at a red light. When the light turns green, the car accelerates until it reaches a final velocity of 45 m/s. It
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

270 m

Explanation:

We can find the distance travelled by the car by using the following suvat equation:

s=(\frac{u+v}{2})t

where

s is the distance travelled

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time

For the car in this problem,

u = 0

v = 45 m/s

t = 12 s

Substituting into the equation, we find:

s=(\frac{0+45}{2})(12)=270 m

A wooden block with mass 1.05 kg is placed against a compressed spring at the bottom of a slope inclined at an angle of 35.0 deg
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

energy stored in spring initially

= kinetic + potential energy of block + energy dissipated by friction

= 1/2 mv² + mgh + μ mgcosθ x  d

m is mass , v is velocity at top position , h is vertical height , μ is coefficient of friction ,θ is angle of inclination of plane

= m (1/2 v² + gh + μ gcosθ x  d )

= 1.05 ( .5 x 5.1² + 9.8 x 4.9 sin35 + .55 x 9.8 cos35 x 4.9 )

= 1.05 ( 13.005 + 27.543 + 21.635)

= 65.3 J .
