Answer:

0.5m/s²

Explanation:

acceleration =v-u/t

=(16-12)/8

=4/8

acceleration =0.5m/s²

V= 16.0 m/s
u= 12.0 m/s
t=8.00 s
a=(v-u)/t
= (16-12)/8
= 4/8
= 0.5 m/s^2

wlad13 [49]

In this problem, you are asked to find a vertical position of a ball when you are given its initial position on a spring. In both locations, the speed of the ball is zero.  

If non-conservative forces are either known or small and if energy is converted from one form to another between the locations, then any time you relate speed and position of an object at two different points, conservation of energy is the most direct way to understand the problem.  

In this case, you start out with stored energy in the compression of the spring and convert it to stored gravitational energy.

A man with a mass of 60 kg rides a bike with a mass of 13 kg. What is the force needed to accelerate the bike at 0.90 m/s2?
Scrat [10]
The total mass of the things on the road is 60 + 13, which is 73kg.

mass • acceleration = F

73 x 0.9m/s^2 = 65.7N

F = 65.7 N

Conduction of a nerve impulse would be the fastest in _________
Vinil7 [7]

The options of the given are:

A. A large diameter myelinated fiber

B. A small diameter myelinated fiber

C. A large unmyelinated fiber

D. A small unmyelinated fiber

E. A small fiber with multiple Schwann cells

Answer: Option A, A large diameter myelinated fiber.

Explanation:

The conduction of the nerve impulse would be greatest in the myelinated fiber because the main function of the myelin sheath is to increase the speed of the impulse at which the electrical signals propagate.

In case of the unmyelinated sheath the nerve impulse travels slowly as the conduction waves but in case of the large diameter myelinated sheath the signals travel via saltatory conduction( hop)

In this type of propagation the signals are transferred from the node of Ranvier in one neuron to next node which increases the overall velocity of the action potentials.

According to Darwin's theory of evolution, how does natural selection cause species to evolve over time?
Elena L [17]

As time goes on, members of a population with favorable traits continue to breed while those without these traits eventually die off. For instance, if all of the food in an area was high up in the trees, only members of the species with long necks are able to eat and continue to live and reproduce. Those with shorter necks will not be able to eat and will eventually die off. Over time, the species will evolve to have long necks.

Hope this helps!
