Answer:
Vi = 5 m/s
Explanation:
let (a) acceleration = 0.75 m/s²
(t) time = 20 seconds
Vf = final velocity = 72 km/hr (convert to m/s to units consistency = 20 m/s)
find Initial velocity (Vi)
Vf - Vi
a = -----------
t
Vi = Vf - (a * t) = 20 - (0.75 * 20)
Vi = 5 m/s
Newton's first law of motion states that. an object on the rest or motion is stay the same unless external force applied on it.
Inertia, property of a body by virtue of which it opposes any agency that attempts to put it in motion or, if it is moving, to change the magnitude or direction of its velocity. Inertia is a passive property and does not enable a body to do anything except oppose such active agents as forces and torques.
Light gates are more reliable. When using a manual stop watch, it is difficult to stop it at an exact time. A light gate is able to detect when an object passes through a 'gate' with the infrared transmitter and receiver.
You have selected the correct answer and blobbed over it with your pencil.
I assume you must have looked at Saturn's average distance, found 1427,
divided that number by 6, got 237 and change, then looked at the others,
and found that 228 was the only one that's anywhere close.
