What was the name of the first steam-powered locomotive that was developed by george stephenson?

What does a lunar eclipse and a solar eclipse have in common

liraira [26]

During either one, the sun, moon, and Earth are lined up in the same straight line. The difference is whether the moon or the Earth is the one in the "middle".

A motorcycle accelerates uniformly from rest at 7.9\,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text{s}^2}7.9 s 2 m 7, point, 9, space, start fraction,

8090 [49]

Answer:

t = 3.516 s

Explanation:

The most useful kinematic formula would be the velocity of the motorcylce as a function of time, which is:

$v(t) = v_0 +at$

Where v_0 is the initial velocity and a is the acceleration. However the problem states that the motorcyle start at rest therefore v_0 = 0

If we want to know the time it takes to achieve that speed, we first need to convert units from km/h to m/s.

This can be done knowing that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

Therefore

1 km/h = (1000/3600) m/s = 0.2777... m/s

100 km/h = 27.777... m/s

Now we are looking for the time t, for which v(t) = 27.77 m/s. That is:

27.777 m/s = 7.9 m/s^2 t

Solving for t

t = (27.7777 / 7.9) s = 3.516 s

Carlos pushes a 3 kg box with a force of 9 newtons. The force of friction on the box is 3 newtons in the opposite direction. Wha

Ivenika [448]

The 'net' force acting on the box is (9 - 3) = 6 newtons
in the direction that Carlos is pushing.

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

6 = (3) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by 3 :

<em>2 m/s² = acceleration</em>

A person is initially driving a car east down a straight road. the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration is decreasing wit

Alexxandr [17]

By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,
