Which graph illustrates constant speed and velocity?

Physics
2 answers:
boyakko [2]3 years ago

The correct graph is <u>D</u>.

The graph <em>A</em> is a straight line sloping downwards and it shows that the speed of the body is decreasing at a constant rate. Therefore, this s a graph of a body that is under a constant deceleration.

The graph B is a straight line which slopes upwards. Hence the graph shows that the speed of the body increases at a constant rate. Therefore, this is a graph of a body that is accelerating at a constant rate.

The graph C is curved line, which curves upwards. The slope of the curve increases with time. This is therefore, a graph of a body which is under increasing acceleration.

The graph D, however is a straight line parallel to the time axis. The speed of the body has the same value at all times. Therefore, Graph D is the graph which shows the motion of a body with constant speed.

Answer choice D is correct.

When you are thinking about a "constant" on a graph, it usually means that is is a straight line that is either horizontal or vertical. In this case the only graph that as both a constant speed and velocity is D which is why it is correct.

A has a negative constant acceleration

B has a positive acceleration

C is not constant, but is moving at a positive acceleration.

Hope this helps some!

A box slides down a frictionless incline, gaining speed. The work done by the normal force n is _______.
jeka57 [31]

The work done by the normal force n when the box slides down a frictionless incline and gaining speed is zero.

<h3>What is normal force?</h3>

The force of contact is called the normal force. When the two surfaces are in contact with each other, then the normal force acts.

This force is applied by the solid bodies on each other in order to prevent the passing through each other.

A box slides down a frictionless incline, gaining speed. For this box, the value of work done by normal force has to be found out. Let's analyze the given condition.

  • The body is gaining the speed, which means there is a change in kinetic energy.
  • The change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done.
  • The friction force is the product of coefficient of the friction and normal force.
  • The friction force for the given case is zero. Thus, the normal force must be equal to the zero.

Thus, the work done by the normal force n when the box slides down a frictionless incline and gaining speed is zero.

The radius of the earth is 6378 km. What is the diameter of the earth in meters?
Nesterboy [21]
To determine the diameter of the earth in metres first multiply the original value by 2.

6378 X 2 = 12 756 km.

Then convert km - m

1 km = 1000 m
12 756 km = ? m

12 756 • 1000 = 12 756 000 = 12 756 000 m or 1.2756 X 10 ^ 7 m

The final solution for the diameter is 1.2756 X 10 ^ 7 m.

Benjamina started her walk from the front door of her ground floor apartment. She walked 6 meters to the corner of the building
Cloud [144]
The distance is the total distance she walked which is 16 meters adding the 6 meters to the corner and 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Her displacement is the distance from her original starting point so you set up a triangle with side lengths of 6 and 10 and solve for the hypotenuse which gives you a displacement of 11.66 meters.
