A= (v - u)/t

a= (40 - 0)/5

a= 40/5

a= 8m/s^2

Answer:

8 m/s²

Explanation:

There are many formulas that can be used to calculate acceleration, time, initial velocity, final velocity and distance.

One such formula is:

v = u + at  (v = final velocity; u = initial velocity; a = acceleration; t = time)

Using the values given in the question, all we need to do is rearrange the formula to make a the subject of the formula:

a = (v - u) / t

a = (40 m/s - 0 m/s) / (5 s)

a = (40 m/s) / (5 s)

a = 8 m/s²

Two identical 0.50-kg carts, each 0.10 m long, are at rest on a low-friction track and are connected by a spring that is initial
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The system's kinetic energy changes by 3.6 J

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of cart = 2

The mass of each cart = 0.5kg

The initial length of the spring = 0.50 m

The final length of the spring =T0.3 m

The change in position of the first cart = 0.6 m

The energy given to the first cart = Work done by the force = Force × Displacement

The initial kinetic energy of the two cart moving together = Energy given to the first cart = 6.0 × 0.2 = 1.2J

The kinetic energy given to the two cart combined = The applied force × The total displacement of the two cart as they move together

The kinetic energy given to the two cart combined = 6.0 × (0.6 - 0.2)

The kinetic energy given to the two cart combined = 6.0 × 0.4 = 2.4 J

The total kinetic energy given to the two cart = 1.2 + 2.4 = 3.6 J

The total kinetic energy given to the two cart = 3.6 J

The system's kinetic energy changes by 3.6 J.

This position-time graph describes an object's motion. Use it to determine the
kirza4 [7]

We're happy that you're asking for the "displacement", because displacement is simply the straight-line distance between the start-point and end-point, and we don't care about any of the motions or gyrations along the way.

From the graph:

-- The location of the object at time-zero, when time begins, is  10 meters.

-- The location of the object after 6.0 seconds is  4 meters.

-- The distance between the start-point and end-point is

(final location) - (initial location)

-- So Displacement = (4 meters) - (10 meters)

<em>Displacement = -6 meters</em>
