A car stops in 130 m. If it has an acceleration of -5 m/s2 what was the cars starting velocity?

Physics

Tatiana [17]3 years ago

Answer:

<u>We are given:</u>

displacement (s) = 130 m

acceleration (a) = -5 m/s²

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s      [the cars 'stops' in 130 m]

initial velocity (u) = u m/s

<u>Solving for initial velocity:</u>

From the third equation of motion:

v² - u² = 2as

replacing the variables

(0)² - (u)² = 2(-5)(130)

-u² = -1300

u² = 1300

u = √1300

u = 36 m/s

A student throws a 130 g snowball at 6.5 m/s at the side of the schoolhouse, where it hits and sticks. What is the magnitude of
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

4.7 N

Explanation:

130 g = 0.13 kg

The momentum of the snowball when it's thrown at the wall is

p = mv = 0.13*6.5 = 0.845 kgm/s

Which is also the impulse. From here we can calculate the magnitude of the average force F knowing the duration of the collision is 0.18 s

p = F\Delta t

F*0.18 = 0.845

F = 0.845 / 0.18 = 4.7 N

¿Cuál es la magnitud y dirección de la aceleración de los cuerpos en caída libre en el planeta Tierra?
Tatiana [17]

La magnitud es de 9.8 m/s² ... la aceleración de la gravedad en o cerca de la superficie de la Tierra.

La dirección es hacia el centro de la Tierra. (Llamamos a esa dirección "abajo").

David rowed a boat upstream for three miles and then returned to point he started from. The entire journey took four hours. The
frez [133]
Upstream speed = S - 1
Downstream speed = S + 1

Average speed = total distance / total time

Average speed = (S - 1) + (S + 1) / 2
= S

S = 6 miles / 4 hours
S = 1.5 miles per hour

A student throws a small rock straight upwards. The rock rises to its highest point and then falls back down. How does the speed
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

we assume that it starts with a velocity of 10m/s. At 2m height above ground level, its velocity decreases at 3m above ground level

for its way down the velocity at 3m on its way down is more than its velocity at 2m on its way down.

Explanation:

A student throws a small rock straight upwards. The rock rises to its highest point and then falls back down. How does the speed of the rock at 2m on the way down compare with its speed at 2m on the way up?

It decreases in speed on its way down and increases in speed on its way down.

it decreases in speed on its way up because the the vertical motion is against the earths gravitational pull on an object to the earth's center

.It increases in speed on his way down because its under the influence of gravity

from newton's equation of motion we can check by

using V^2=u^2+2as

we assume that it starts with a velocity of 10m/s. At 2m height above ground level, its velocity decreases at 3m above ground level

for its way down the velocity at 3m on its way down is more than its velocity at 2m on its way down.
