Answer:

Possibly m/s^2 (metres per second squared)

Explanation:

There are a few different units for acceleration so I need more information, but generally the standard unit is metres per second squared.

A bike rider pedals with constant acceleration to reach a velocity of 7.8 m/s over a time of 4.2 s. during the period of acceler

Artyom0805 [142]

To calculate the initial velocity of the bike, we use the following equation

$d=\frac{1}{2} (u+v)t$ .

$u=\frac{2d}{t} -v$

Here, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity, t is the time and d is the distance covered by bike.

Given, $u =7.8 m/s$ , $d= 19 m$ and $t=4.2 s$ .

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

$u = \frac{2 \times 19}{4.2 \ s} -7.8 m/s = 9.05 \ m/s - 7.8 \ m/s \\\\ u= 1.2 m/s$ .

Thus, the initial velocity of the bike is 1.2 m/s.

When an athlete holds a barbell overhead, the reaction force is the weight of the barbell on his hand. how does this force vary

Sonja [21]

The force applied by the competitor is littler than the heaviness of the barbell. At the point when the barbell quickens upward, the power applied by the competitor is more prominent than the heaviness of the barbell. When it decelerates upward, the power applied by the competitor is littler than the heaviness of the barbell.

A child’s toy that is made to shoot ping pong balls consists of a tube, a spring (k = 18 N/m) and a catch for the spring that ca

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

The height is 3.1m

Explanation:

Here we have a conservation of energy problem, we have a conversion form eslastic potencial energy to gravitational potencial energy, so:

$E_e=\frac{1}{2}K*x^2\\E_e=\frac{1}{2}18N/m*(9.5*10^{-2}m)^2\\E_e=0.081J$

then we have only gravitational potencial energy when the ball is at its maximun height.

$E_g=m*g*h$

because all the energy was transformed Eg=Ee

$h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*m}$

searching the web, the mass of a ping pong ball is 2.7 gr in average. so:

$h=\frac{0.081J}{9.8m/s^2*(2.7*10^{-3}kg)}\\h=3.1m$

Which describes how to generate a real image of an object using a concave mirror?The object must be closer to the mirror than th

iren2701 [21]

In order to form a real image using a concave mirror, the object must be placed beyond the center of curvature of the mirror. Therefore, the object must be further from the mirror than the focal point. The image that will form will be real, but it will also be inverted and its magnification will be less than 1, meaning it will be smaller than the actual object.
