If a car goes from rest to 40 m/s in 5 seconds it means the acceleration is 8 m/s/s. After 2 seconds the speed is 16 m/s and the overall distance = 1/2 x 40 x 5 = 100m

a car has a velocity of 10ms-1. it accelerates at 0.2 ms-2 for half minute find the total distance travelled and final velocity

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Final velocity = 16 m/s

Total distane travelled = 390 m

Explanation:

We can use equation of motion to solve this:

$v = u + at \\ v = 10 + 0.2(30) \\ v = 16 {ms}^{ - 1}$

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2} \\ s = 10(30) + \frac{1}{2} (0.2) {(30)}^{2} \\ s = 390m$

A swimmer is capable of swimming at 1.4m/s in still water. a. How far downstream will he land if he swims directly across a 180m

ozzi

Answer:

t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec (time to swim horizontally across river)

S = 129 sec * V where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream

The problem does not specify V the speed of the river

A car is moving at 20 m/s. The driver steps on the gas pedal and accelerates the car for 4 seconds at an acceleration of 4 m/s2.

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The final velocity of the car is 36 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 20 m/s

time of the car acceleration, t = 4 s

acceleration of the car, a = 4 m/s²

the final velocity of the car is calculated as;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

v = 20 + (4 x 4)

v = 36 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 36 m/s.
