Is it possible for a distance versus-time graph to be a vertical line?

Physics
2 answers:
Phoenix [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In a distance-time graph, time is on the horizontal axis, or x-axis, and distance is on the vertical axis, or y-axis. As an object moves, the distance it travels increases with time. ... You can use the steepness, or slope, of a line in a distance-time graph to determine the speed of an object if speed is constant.

If time is the x axis and distance is the y axis then yes, in the case that time is going by but distance remains the same.

lana [24]

Answer:8.28 km

Explanation:  

Given

First it drifts 45^{\circ} 2.5 km

r_1=2.5cos45 i+2.5sin45 j

Secondly it drifts 60^{\circ} 4.70 km

r_{12}=4.7cos60 i-4.7sin60 j

After that it drifted along east direction 5.1 km

r_{23}=5.1 i

After that it drifts 55^{\circ} 7.2 km

r_{34}=-7.2cos55 i-7.2sin55 j

After that it drifts 5^{\circ} 2.8 km

r_{54}=-2.8cos5 i+2.8sin5 j

r_{5O}=\left [ 2.5cos45+4.7cos60+5.1-7.2cos55-2.8cos5\right ]\hat{i}+\left [ 2.5sin45-4.7sin60-7.2sin55+2.8sin5\right ]\hat{j}

r_{5O}=2.299\hat{i}-7.95\hat{j}

|r_{5O}|=8.28 km

for direction

tan\theta =\frac{7.95}{2.299}=3.4580

\theta =73.87^{\circ} south of east

If a car has a velocity of 85 km/hr, how long will it take to accelerate to 45 km/hr if the acceleration is -3 km/hr/sec?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Time, t = 13.34 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, u = 85km/hr to meters per seconds = 85*1000/3600 = 23.61 m/s

Final velocity, v = 45km/hr to meters per seconds = 45*1000/3600 = 12.5 m/s

Acceleration, a = -3 km/hr/sec to meters per seconds square = -3*1000/3600 = -0.833m/s²

To find the time;

Acceleration = (v - u)/t

-0.833 = (12.5 - 23.61)/t

-0.833t = -11.11

t = 11.11/0.833

Time, t = 13.34 seconds.

An iron railroad rail is 800 ft long when the temperature is 31°C. What is its length (in ft) when the temperature is −17°C?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

799.54 ft

Explanation:

Linear thermal expansion is:

ΔL = α L₀ ΔT

where ΔL is the change in length,

α is the linear thermal expansion coefficient,

L₀ is the original length,

and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Given:

α = 1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C

L₀ = 800 ft

ΔT = -17°C − 31°C = -48°C

Find: ΔL

ΔL = (1.2×10⁻⁵ / °C) (800 ft) (-48°C)

ΔL = -0.4608

Rounded to two significant figures, the change in length is -0.46 ft.

Therefore, the final length is approximately 800 ft − 0.46 ft = 799.54 ft.

jeka94

Answer:

g = 5 m/s square

Explanation:

Weight(W), Mass(m), Gravity(g)

W = mg

1,000N = 200g

g = 1000/200

g = 5 m/s square
