<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<u> 0.2 m/s²,east</u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Using the equation;

v = u+at

Where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

making a the subject;

a= (v-u)/t

  = (19 -18)/5

  = 1/5

 <u> = 0.2 m/s², east</u>

A rock is thrown vertically upward from some height above the ground. It rises to some maximum height and falls back to the grou
True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.

how much force would be required to produce 88 j of work when pushing a box 1.1meters at an angle of 10 degrees?
ycow [4]

Answer:81.235N

Explanation:

Work=88J

theta=10°

distance=1.1 meters

work=force x cos(theta) x distance

88=force x cos10 x 1.1 cos10=0.9848

88=force x 0.9848 x 1.1

88=force x 1.08328

Divide both sides by 1.08328

88/1.08328=(force x 1.08328)/1.08328

81.235=force

Force=81.235

What is the length a rubberband was stretched if it has a spring constant of 5700N/m and is currently holding 8600J OF POTENTIAL
lozanna [386]

Answer:

\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m

Explanation:

<u>Elastic Potential Energy </u>

Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.

\displaystyle PE = \frac{1}{2}k(\Delta x)^2

Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.

Solving for Δx:

\displaystyle \Delta x=\swrt{\frac{2PE}{k}}

Substituting:

\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{\frac{2*8600}{5700}}

Calculating:

\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{3.0175}

\boxed{\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m}
