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

Physics
1 answer:
Tatiana [17]3 years ago
8 0

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

goldfiish [28.3K]
That is True because if it resists it means to not do it and if it is motion, that means that it is resisting movement and that is what inertia is.

The scientific definition for inertia is: "a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged"
Glad to help. :)

Define scalar and vector
Andreas93 [3]

The quantity is either a vector or a scalar. These two categories can be distinguished from one another by their distinct definitions: Scalars are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude (or numerical value) alone. Vectors are quantities that are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction.

Which of the following best describes entropy
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Exothermic reactions increase the entropy of the surroundings. Simply put, entropy measures the dispersal of energy. Since ΔH is negative in an exothermic reaction, this must mean that ΔS will take on a positive value, indicating an increase in entropy.

Anarel [89]
In order to answer the question, we need to know what was there before
AND what was there after.  Is there a reason why you're concealing that
information ?
