[any unit of force] divided by [any unit of length or distance]

can be a unit of spring constant.

Useful spring units can include [newtons per meter] and [pounds per foot].

A 1700kg rhino charges at a speed of 50.0km/h. what is the magnitude of the average force needed to bring the rhino to a stop in
klio [65]
First, let's convert the initial speed of the rhino:
v_i = 50 km/h = 13.9 m/s
The acceleration of the rhino is given by:
a= \frac{v_f-v_i}{t}= \frac{0-13.9 m/s}{0.5 s}=-27.8m/s^2
where the negative sign means it is a deceleration. We can neglect the negative sign since we are interested only in the magnitude of the force applied, which is given by Netwon's second law:
F=ma = (1700 kg)(27.8 m/s^2)=4.7 \cdot 10^4 N

OLga [1]
E the temperature of a substance. Water has a very high specific heat. That means it needs to absorb a lot of energy before its temperature changes. Sand , on the other hand, have lower specific heats. This means that their temperatures change more quickly. When the summer sun shines down on them, they quickly become hot.

what is the average speed of (a) a car that travels 400m in 20s. and (b) an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes​
zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 20 m/s

b) 37.5 m)s

Explanation:

Average speed = total distance ÷ total time

=> (a) average speed of a car that travels 400m in 20s

= 400/20 = 20 m/s

& (b) average speed of an athlete who runs 1500m in 4 minutes (or 4×60=240 seconds)

= 1500/240 = 37.5 m/s
