Answer:

a=1.1*10^{18}\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

We use the following kinematic formula to calculate the acceleration:

v_f^2=v_0^2+2ax

The kinetic energy is defined as:

\Delta K=\frac{m(v_f^2-v_0^2)}{2}\\v_f^2-v_0^2=\frac{2\Delta K}{m}

Replacing this in the acceleration formula and solving for a:

\frac{2\Delta K}{m}=2ax\\a=\frac{\Delta K}{mx}\\a=\frac{2*10^{-18}J}{(9.1*10^{-31}kg)(2*10^{-6}m)}\\a=1.1*10^{18}\frac{m}{s^2}

A student weighing 200N climbs a flight of stairs 7.0m high in 8s. What power is required to perform this task?
noname [10]

Answer:

Power required, P = 175 watts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Weight of a student, F = mg = 200 N

The student climbs a flight of stairs of height, h = 7 m

Time taken, t = 8 s

We have to find the power required to perform this task. Work done per unit time is called the power required. Mathematically, it is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W = work done

t = time taken

P=\dfrac{mgh}{t}

P=\dfrac{200\ N\times 7\ m}{8\ s}

P = 175 watts

Hence, the power required to complete this task is 175 watts.

A student does an experiment with a pendulum. in the first trial, she displaces the pendulum 5 cm. In the second trial, she disp
lianna [129]
Well, there are different ways you can represent the motion
of the pendulum on a graph.  For example, the graph could
show the pendulum's displacement, total distance, position,
speed, velocity, or acceleration against time.  Your question
doesn't specify which quantity the graphs show, so it's pretty
tough to describe their similarities and differences, since these
could be different depending on the quantity being graphed. 

I have decided to make it simple, and assume that the graph shows
the distance away from the center against time, with positive and
negative values to represent whether its position is to the left or right
of the center.  And now I shall proceed to answer the question that
I just invented.

In both cases, the graph would be a "sine" wave.  That is, it would be
the graph of the equation 

Y = A · sin(B · time) .

' A ' is the amplitude of the wave.

' B ' is some number that depends on the frequency of the swing . . .
how often the pendulum completes one full swing.

The two graphs would have different amplitudes, so the number 'A'
would be different.  It would be 5 for the first graph and 10 on the 2nd one.

But the number 'B' would be the same for both graphs, because 
when she pulled it farther and let it go, it would make bigger swings,
but they would not happen any faster or slower than the small swings.

In the space of, say one minute, the pendulum would make the same
number of swings both times.  That number would only depend on the
length of the string, but not on how far you pull it sideways before you
let it go.

An object moves with a positive acceleration. Could the object be moving with increasing speed, decreasing speed or constant spe
Masja [62]

Answer:

Increasing speed.

Explanation:

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity  -  initial \; velocity}{time}

In this scenario, an object moves with a positive acceleration. Thus, the object is moving with an increasing speed and as such it has acceleration in the same direction as its velocity with respect to time.
