Answer:

The sign of acceleration is positive

Explanation:

For the car to stop, there must be a deceleration, which will gradually reduce its speed to zero, the deceleration is the aceleration in the opposite way (sign) to the movement, since in this way it will be contrary to the car's displacement and it will be able to stop it.

A graduated beaker with 375 mL of water is sitting on a scale which measures the weight of the glass and water to be 7.60 N. Whe
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Volume of water displaced = 450 - 375 = 75 ml

Vr = volume of rock = 75 ml

Wr = 9.22 - 7.60 = 1.62 N  weight of 75 ml of rock

Density of rock = 1.62 N / 75 ml = .0216 N / ml

Density of water = 1000 g / 1000 ml = 9.8 N / 1000 ml = .0098 N / ml

Density of rock / density of water = .0216 / .0098 = 2.20

What is the mass of a bird if it has a potential energy of 147J when flying at a height of 30 m above the ground?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

0.5kg

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Potential energy = 147J

Height  = 30m

Unknown:

Mass of the bird  = ?

Solution:

Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. Now, the expression for finding the potential energy is given as;

      P.E  = mgH

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

H is the height

      147  = m x 9.8 x 30

         m = 0.5kg
