So the initial velocity is 15 m/s, the final velocity is 0 since it's at a complete stop and time is 10 seconds.  Therefore:

Acceleration=\frac{v_{final}-v_{initial}}{t_{final}-t_{initial}} =\frac{0m/s-15m/s}{10s-0s} =-1.5\frac{m}{s^2}

Therefore, the acceleration is -1.5 m/s^2.  The reason it's negative is due to the fact that the vector is going against it's original movement since it's decelerating.

Hello!

A car traveling at 15 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 10 seconds. What is it's acceleration ?

We have the following data:

Vi (initial velocity) = 15 m/s (starts)

Vf (final velocity) = 0 m/s (stop)

t (time) = 10 s

a (acceleration) = ? (in m/s²)

<u><em>We apply the data to the formula of the hourly function of the velocity, let us see:</em></u>

V_f = V_i + a*t

0 = 15 + a*10

- 15 = 10\:a

10\:a = - 15

a = \dfrac{-15}{10}

\boxed{\boxed{a = - 1.5\:m/s^2}}\Longrightarrow(the\:car\:slows\:down)\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\green{\checkmark}

<u><em>Answer:  </em></u>

<u><em>The acceleration is -1.5 m/s² (decelerate)  </em></u>

Answer:

a)  R = ρ₀ L /π(r_b² - R_a²) , b)  ρ₀ = V / I    π (r_b² - R_a²) / L

Explanation:

a) The resistance of a material is given by

          R = ρ l / A

where ρ is the resistivity, l is the length and A is the area

the length is l = L and the resistivity is ρ = ρ₀

the area is the area of ​​the cylindrical shell

           A = π r_b² - π r_a²

           A = π (r_b² - r_a²)

we substitute

         R = ρ₀ L /π(r_b² - R_a²)

b) The potential difference is related to current and resistance by ohm's law

         V = i R

         

we subsist the expression of resistance

          V = I ρ₀ L /π (r_b² - R_a²)

           ρ₀ = V / I    π (r_b² - R_a²) / L

MissTica
The correct answer to this question is C - Gravity is a force. Gravity is also an example of a universal law. Well, according to Isaac Newton, anyway. According to Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, 'every point mass attracts every single point mass by a force pointing along the line intersecting both paths.'

A very flexible helium-filled balloon is released from the ground into the air at 20. ∘C. The initial volume of the balloon is 5
koban [17]

Answer:

V = 38.0 L

Explanation:

As we know that number of moles will remains conserved inside the balloon

so we will have

moles = \frac{PV}{RT}

here we have

\frac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \frac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}

now we have

P_1 = 760 mm Hg

P_2 = 76 mm Hg

V_1 = 5.00 L

T_1 = 20^o C = 293 K

T_2 = -50^o C = 223 K

\frac{(760mm Hg)(5L)}{R(293)} = \frac{(76mm Hg)(V)}{R(223)}

V = 38.0 L
