A car is traveling at a speed of 54 km/h. Breaks are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of -0.5 m/s2. Find how far

the car will go before it is brought to rest

Explanation:

u=54 km/h

54*5/18=15 m/s

v=0m/s

t=?

acceleration=-0.5m/s^2

we know that a=v-u/t

so,

t=v-u/a

t=15-0/0.5

=15/0.5

=30

therefore, the time is 30 second

Hope this answer helps you..

a college student produces about 100 kcal of heat per hour on the average what is the rate of energy production and joules

Bond [772]

Given:

Amount of heat produced = 100 kcal per hour

Let's find the rate of energy production in joules.

We know that:

1 calorie = 4.184 Joules

1 kcal = 4.184 Joules

To find the rate of energy production in Joules, we have:

$\begin{gathered} Rate=100\ast4.184 \\ \\ \text{Rate}=418.4\text{ KJ/hour} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the rate of energy production in joules is 418.4 kJ/h which is equivalent to 418400 Joules

ANSWER:

418.4 kJ/h

Two charged objects, A and B, are exerting an electric force on each other. What will happen if the charge on A is increased?

ozzi

Answer: The forces acting on both of them will increase in magnitude.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force between two bodies is proportional to the product of their two charges. If the charge on A is increased this product increases in size (it must have been non-zero to begin with, since there was a force between them at first). Thus, the force between them rises.

a car headed north at 15 m/s accelerates for 4.25 s to reach a velocity of 28.3 m/s. What is the acceleration of the car?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The acceleration of the car is $3.13 m/s^2$

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the question it is given that car initially heads north with a velocity $15 m/s$ . It then accelerates for $4.25 s$ and in the end its velocity is $28.3 m/s$ .

initial velocity $u = 15 m/s$

time $t=4.25 s$

final velocity $v=28.3 m/s$

The equation of acceleration is

$a= \frac{(v-u)}{t}$

$= \frac{(28.3-15)}{4.25} = \frac {13.3}{4.25} =3.13m/s^2$

The value of acceleration is positive, here since the car is speeding up. If it was slowing down the value of acceleration would be negative.
