The formula we can use in this case is:

v = v0 + a t

where v is final velocity, v0 is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time

So finding for v0:

v0 = v – a t

v0 = 43.7 – (2.5) 2.7

v0 =  36.95 m/s

Which scientific law is also known as the law of inertia? PLZ HELP ASAPPPPPPPPP!!!
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion

Explanation:

Without external forces acting on an object, the object tends to move at constant speed in a straight line. This property is referred to as inertia. Newton's first law states this natural observation.

A rocket moves upward, starting from rest with an acceleration of +30.0 m/s2 for 5.00 s. It runs out of fuel at the end of this
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The distance covered by the rocket after fuel ran out is 3442.04 m

Explanation:

Given that the rocket moves with an acceleration a=30m/s^2

time t=5 s

Since the rocket starts from rest initial velocity  u=0 s

The distance it travelled within this time is given by  s=ut+ \frac{1}{2} at^2                                                                                                  =0 \times 5+ \frac{1}{2} (30\times25)=375 m

Velocity at this point is given by v=u+at

v=0+30\times5=150m/s

Given that at this height it runs out of fuel but travels further. Here final velocity v=0(maximum height), initial velocityu=150 m/s  and time to zero velocity t=\frac{v}{g} = \frac{150}{9.8} =15.3 s.

Thus it travels 15.3 seconds more after fuel running out. The distance covered during this period is given

s= ut+\frac{1}{2} gt^2=150 \times 15.3+1/2 \times9.8 \times 15.3^2=3442.04 m

A light ray hits a plane surface at 20 degrees. What is the angle between the incident and reflected rays.
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

140°

Explanation:

The law of reflection states that the angle of redlection equals to the angle of incidence.

When light rays hit surface at 20°, they also leave the surface at the same angle

Since the whole surface has 180° then subtracting these two angles from total angle gives the the angle between the incident and reflected rays.

180°-20°-20°=140°

The angle of incidence and reflection are equal hence 140/2=70°

The question needed the angle between the incident and reflected rays which is already calculated as 140°

If a golf ball and a ping-pong ball both move with the same kinetic energy, which has the greater speed? 1. the golf ball 2. can
schepotkina [342]
Think about it like this, the more mass there is, the faster its going to go. If you took a golf ball and a ping pong ball and you held them each separately, you would notice that the golf ball is heavier. If they move with the same kinetic energy, but the golf ball WEIGHS more, then the golf ball will have the greater speed. If you think about it, the ping pong ball may be taking its time to get to wherever its going.
