A train accelerated from 5 km/hr in 0.5 hours. what was the rate of acceleration?

Physics
1 answer:
Bezzdna [24]3 years ago
5 0
Acceleration is the simply rate of change in velocity, how much faster or slower is the object changing speed with respect to time.

A = v/t = 5 km/hr/0.5 hr

5/1/2 = 5 • 2 = 10 km/hr^2.

This would be the acceleration.

Points A, B, and C form the vertices of a triangle in a nonuniform electrostatic field. The electrostatic work done on a particl
Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let electric potential at A ,B and C be Va , Vb and Vc respectively.

Work done = charge x potential difference

Wab = q ( Va - Vb )

Wac =  q (  Va -  Vc )

Given

Wac = - Wab / 3

3Wac = - Wab

Now

Wbc = q ( Vb - Vc )

= q [ ( Va-Vc ) - ( Va - Vb )]  

= Wac - Wab

= Wac + 3Wac

= 4Wac

Name one contact force and one force that acts through a force field
nirvana33 [79]
A contact force is a type of force which act on an object by coming in contact with the object. Examples of contact force that acts through a force field are: applied force, frictional force, air resistance force, tension, spring force, etc.
  Examples of forces that act through a force field are gravitational force, electromagnetic force, the weak interaction and the strong interaction.

What is the weight of a feather (mass = 0.0001 kg) that floats through earth's and the moon's atmospheres?
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)

Acceleration of gravity = 9.81 m/s² on Earth, 1.62 m/s² on the Moon.

The feather's weight is . . .

On Earth:  (0.0001 kg) x (9.81 m/s²) = <em>0.000981 Newton </em>

On the Moon:  (0.0001 kg) x (1.62 m/s²) = <em>0.000162 N</em>

The presence or absence of atmosphere makes no difference.  In fact, the numbers would be the same if the feather were sealed in a jar, or spinning wildly in a tornado, or hanging by a thread, or floating in a bowl of water or chicken soup.  Weight is just the force of gravity between the feather and the Earth.  It's not affected by what's around the feather, or what's happening to it.

Air pressure is _____.
fgiga [73]

Air pressure is the weight of air on an area.  The weight of air
is due to the gravitational forces between the Earth and the
molecules of its atmosphere.
