An object accelerates from 20 m/s down to 10 m/s in 5 seconds.

Physics

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is -2\ \frac{m}{sec^2}

Explanation:

we know that

The acceleration is the change in the velocity, divided by the time

Let

v -----> the change in the velocity in m/sec

t ----> the time in sec

a=\frac{V}{t}

we have that

V_2=10\ m/sec\\V_1=20\ m/sec

V=V_2-V_1

substitute

V=10-20=-10\ m/sec

t=5\ sec

substitute in the formula

a=\frac{-10}{5}=-2\ \frac{m}{sec^2}

therefore

The acceleration of the object is -2\ \frac{m}{sec^2}

Is negative because is a deceleration

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

1.  V_{x} = V_{0} * cos\alpha ⇒ 16*cos32 ≈ 13.6 m/s (13.56)

2. V_{y} = V_{0} * sin\alpha ⇒ 16* sin32 ≈ 9.4 m/s

3. y_{max} = \frac{v_{0}^2*sin^2\alpha}{2g}= \frac{16^2*sin^232}{2*9.8} (the g (gravity) depends on the country but i'll take the average g which is 9.2m/s^2)

y_{max} ≈ 3.6677+1.5 ≈ 5.2m

4.  x_{max} = \frac{v_{0}^2*sin(2\alpha)}{g}=\frac{16^2*sin(2*32)}{9.8} ≈ 23.5m (23.47)

5. -

answer 4 could be wrong, not certain about that one and i don't know 5

What is the ph of a buffer solution that is 0.172 m in hclo and 0.131 m in naclo? hint: the ka of hclo is 3.8 x 10-8.
nata0808 [166]

The pH of the buffer solution is 7.30 for 0.172 m in Hypochlorous acid and 0.131 m in Sodium hypochlorite.

<h3>What is a buffer solution?</h3>

A weak acid and its conjugate base, or a weak base and its conjugate acid, are mixed together to form a solution called a buffer solution, which is based on water as the solvent. They do not change in pH when diluted or when modest amounts of acid or alkali are added to them. A relatively little amount of a strong acid or strong base has little effect on the pH of buffer solutions. As a result, they are employed to maintain a steady pH.

According to the question:

Ka = 3.8×10⁻⁸

pKa = - log (Ka)

= - log(3.8×10⁻⁸)

= 7.42

pH = pKa + log {[conjugate base]/[acid]}

= 7.42+ log {0.131/0.172}

= 7.302

What is the density of iron if 5.0 cm3 has a mass of 39.5g
weqwewe [10]

Answer :\rho = 7.9\ g/cm^3

Explanation :

It is given that

Mass of iron, m = 39.5 g

Volume of iron, V = 5\ cm^3

So, density is :

density, \rho =\dfrac{mass}{volume}

\rho =\dfrac{39.5g}{5cm^3}

\rho = 7.9\ g/cm^3

All objects in the universe radiate some form of energy.<br> a. True<br> b. False
Harrizon [31]

That's true.  The only way to stop an object from radiating energy
is to cool it to absolute zero.  Since the temperature of space is
roughly 3 degrees above absolute zero, the atoms or molecules
of every object have some kinetic energy, and the object radiates
some heat. 

Of course it also absorbs heat at the same time, mostly from the
huge number of stars shining on it.
