Answer:

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at, where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

a) A cart starts from rest and accelerates at 4.0 m/s² for 5.0 s

        v = ?

        u = 0 m/s

        a = 4.0 m/s²

         t = 5 s

         v = u + at = 0 + 4 x 5 = 20 m/s

b) Then maintains that velocity for 10 s

        v = ?

        u = 20 m/s

        a = 0 m/s²

         t = 10 s

         v = u + at = 20 + 0 x 10 = 20 m/s

c) Then decelerates at the rate of 2.0 m/s² for 4.0 s

        v = ?

        u = 20 m/s

        a = -2.0 m/s²

         t = 4 s

         v = u + at = 20 + -2 x 4 = 12 m/s

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

A thin stream of water flows smoothly from a faucet and falls straight down. at one point the water is flowing at a speed of v1
kati45 [8]
<span>The formulas are, v1d1² = v2d2² ........ (1) h = (v2²-v1²)/2g ...... (2) Given that, v1 = 1.71 m/s we assume that the stream has decreased by a factor d2 =0.805d1 then, v1d1² = v2 (0.805d1)² cancelled both side d1² then we get, v1 = v2 (0.805)² v1 = v2 (0.648025) Sub v1 = 1.71, 1.71 = v2 (0.648025) v2 = 1.71/0.648025 v2 = 2.638787083831642 v2 = 2.64 m/s The vertical distance formula, h = (v2²-v1²)/2g We know that value of gravity constant is 9.8 m/s² h = {(2.64)² - (1.71)²)/2(9.8) h = {(6.9696) - (2.9241)}/19.6 h = (4.0455)/19.6 h = 0.2064030612244898 h = 0.21 cm Therefore, the vertical distance h = 0.21 cm.</span>

What is the acceleration of a car initially traveling at -5m/s and<br> reaching -22m/s in 3s.
lozanna [386]

Answer:

a=-5.67\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = -5 m/s

Final velocity, v = -22 m/s

Time, t = 3s

We need to find the acceleration of the car. The formula of it is given by :

Acceleration,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{(-22)-(-5)}{3}\\\\a=-5.67\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is -5.67\ m/s^2.
