A body has an initial velocity of 12 m s^-1 and is brought to rest over a distance of 45 m. What is the acceleration of the body

Answer:

-1.46 m/s^2

Explanation:

Write down what is given first:

v0 = 12 m/s

vf = 0 m/s

d = 45 m

We are trying to find acceleration, so we will use the equation vf^2 = v0^2 + 2ad

Plug in the values we have:

0^2 = 12^2 + (2 x 45 x a)

a = - 1.46 m/s^2

Note that this acceleration is negative because the body is slowing down, so the acceleration with be negative, because the change in velocity is negative.

If you lift two loads up one story, how much work do you do compared to lifting just one load up one story?
Daniel [21]

Answer:a

Explanation:

We have to lift the load two loads up one story, so energy required is

let m be the mass of each load and h is the height of each story

Energy E_1=2\times m\times g\times \h

E_1=2mgh

Here energy gained is the potential energy which depends upon the datum(floor).

For lifting one load up one story

Energy required

E_2=mgh

thus E_2 is half of E_1

So option a is correct

The object moves with BLANK from A to B. it BLANK from B to C. it moves with BLANK from C to D.
Ganezh [65]

Note that this is a position vs time graph.

From A to B, the graph is a straight line with a nonzero slope. This indicates a constant velocity.

From B to C, the graph is a straight line with 0 slope. This indicates a constant position, i.e. the object remains stationary.

From C to D, the graph is a straight line with a nonzero slope. This indicates a constant velocity.

What are the main characteristics of S.H.M​
agasfer [191]

Answer:

•→ The motion of a particle or body in S.H.M acts towards a fixed point.

•→ Acceleration of the body under S.H.M is proportional to its displacement.

•→ This motion is periodic.

•→ Mechanical energy is conserved in S.H.M

Explanation:

S.H.M is Simple Harmonic Motion

Answer:

it may be because of the movement of the atoms. i believe that the heat of the warm water makes it move faster, thus making the object float due to upthrust, or air pressure
