a train engineer started the train from a standstill and sped up to 5 meters per second, she then rounded a corner at a constant

speed. She then sped the train up to 10 meters per second on the next straightaway. Next, the train chugged around another bend at 10 m/sec, and then its speed slowed to 5 meters per second after coming out of the bend. Finally, the train reached the station, and the engineer applied the brakes and brought the engine to a stop. How many times did the train accelerate? Once a carousel is in motion, the constant movement of the carousel horse around the center of the circle can best be described as

for acceleration we can define that rate of change in velocity is know as acceleration

So whenever velocity of train is changing with time we can say train is accelerating

Now here if initially train is standstill then after some time its speed is 5 m/s

so here the train is accelerated first time

Then on straight path its speed changed from 5 m/s to 10 m/s so here train gets accelerated second time

After this train chugged around a curve with same speed 10 m/s

SO here since train is moving in curve so here its direction of velocity is continuously changing and this type of acceleration is known as centripetal acceleration

SO this is accelerated Third time

Then its speed decreases and it comes to speed of 5 m/s from 10 m/s

So here it is acceleration of train for Fourth time

Then finally train comes to stop so again its speed changed from 5 m/s to 0

so this is acceleration of train Fifth time

So total train will accelerate 5 times in whole path

Mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of which of the following types of forces?magnetic
Tju [1.3M]
<h2>Answer: electrostatic and gravitational force </h2><h2 />

Mechanical energy remains constant (conserved) if only <u>conservative forces</u> act on the particles.  

In this sense, the following forces are conservative:  

-Gravitational  

-Elastic

-Electrostatics  

While the Friction Force and the Magnetic Force are not conservative.

According to this, mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of electrostatic and gravitational forces.

You just calibrated a constant volume gas thermometer. The pressure of the gas inside the thermometer is 286.0 kPa when the ther
diamong [38]

Answer:

T_{2} = 606.69 K

Explanation:

In that the gas thermometer is a constant volume, it is satisfied that:

\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }  

How the boiling water is under regular atmospheric pressure, then

T_{1} = 373 .15 K

Thus

\frac{286000}{373.15} = \frac{465000}{T_{2} }

T_{2} = 606.69 K
