The "acceleration" is negative so it's a deceleration. Change of speed = 30 m/s. Time taken for change 15 seconds Deceleration 30m/s^-1 divided by 15 seconds which is 2m/s per second ...
Nice and gentle, and so not the "modern way"

The speed of a car is decreased uniformly from 30. meters per second to 10. meters per second in 4.0 seconds. What was the car's
masha68 [24]
Acceleration (magnitude anyway) = (change in speed) / (time for the change) .

Change in speed = (10 - 30) = -20 m/s

Time for the change = 4.0sec

Magnitude of acceleration = -20/4  =  <em>-5 m/s² </em>

If u have a box with mass of 10kg and u push with a force of 200 N what is the acceleration of the box ?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

20m/s²

Explanation:

force = mass*acceleration

acceleration = force ÷ mass

acceleration = 200N ÷ 10kg

acceleration = 20m/s²

A large fake cookie sliding on a horizontal surface isattached to one end of a horizontal spring with spring constantk = 425 N/m
omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

spring constant k = 425 N/m

a ) At the point of equilibrium

restoring force = frictional force

= kx = 10 N

425 x = 10

x = 2.35 cm

b )

Work done by frictional force

= -10 x 2.35 x 10⁻² x 2  J ( Distance is twice of 2.35 cm )

= - 0.47 J

= Kinetic  energy remaining with the cookie  as it slides back through the position where the spring is unstretched .

= 425 - 0.47

= 424.53 J

In a uniform circular motion map, what is always true? Check all that apply.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Velocity vectors are always perpendicular to the circle.

Acceleration vectors point toward the center of the circle.

Velocity vectors are the same length.

Explanation:

(THESE ARE NOT MY WORDS BTW)

1) Acceleration and velocity are vectorial quantities, which means they have magnitude and direction.

2) In a circular motion velocity direction changes all the time, which means that it is accelerated.

3) In a uniform circular motiion, the velocity changes in a constant value. This is the rate of change of velocity, which is the magnitude of the acceleration, is constant (uniform).

4) The velocity is perpendicular to the path, i.e. the circle. You can see it if you think that if the object stopped changing the direction, then the object would follow a straight path (as per inertia principle). That is why this velocity is called tangential velocity (to differentiate it of the angular velocity).

This is what the option C says "Velocity vectors are always perpendicular to the circle". Then this is true.

5) The constant change of direction in a circular path, means that the object is been pushed, accelerated, toward the center of a circle. This is, all the time the object in motion tries to follow the perpendicular path but a push (a force) directed to the center of the circle changes its direction. Such force accelerates the object toward the center of the circle. So, the acceleration vectors point toward the center of the circle, which is what the option D says. So, this is also true.

6) Since the motion is uniform, the magnitude or length of the velocity vectors are always the same, are constant. So, the option E. is also true.
