Answer:

A. A car can still be moving without acceleration when it has some velocity.

B. A car can come to a stop when moving itself when it has some de acceleration.

C.A ca can start at 0 m/s and speed up to 15 m/s when it has some acceleration.

Explanation:

A. since the car has no acceleration the velocity of the car would help it moving.

B. when the car is moving with some velocity but coming to a stop this is possible of and only if it has some de acceleration

C. since the speed of the car increases from 0 to 15 m/s acceleration is involved. If the speed was constant there would be no acceleration involved.

Answer:

When the velocity of the car is constant.

Explanation:

A car moving with no acceleration possesses a uniform velocity i.e the car velocity is not changing. This means that the car is covering a distance at a particular time interval "on a straight line". The velocity of the car is constant at that point that it has no acceleration because for a body to accelerates, the velocity of the body must be changing i.e the final velocity and the initial velocity must be different.

If the initial and final velocity of a body is the same, this means that the body is moving with a constant velocity and as such not accelerating.

likoan [24]

Answer:

14869817.395 m

Explanation:

$\theta$ =22 microarcsecond

λ = Wavelength = 1.3 mm

Converting to radians we get

$22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}\ radians$

From Rayleigh Criterion

$\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{1.3\times 10^{-3}}{22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}}\\\Rightarrow D=14869817.395\ m$

Diameter of the effective primary objective is 14869817.395 m

It is not possible to build one telescope with a diameter of 14869817.395 m. But, we need this type of telescope. So, astronomers use an array of radio telescopes to achieve a virtual diameter in order to observe objects that are the size of supermassive black hole's event horizon.

A football punter accelerates a .55 kg football

Ronch [10]

Answer:

17.6 N

Explanation:

The force exerted by the punter on the football is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the football:

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$

where

$\Delta p$ is the change in momentum of the football

$\Delta t=0.25 s$ is the time elapsed

The change in momentum can be written as

$\Delta p = m(v-u)$

where

m = 0.55 kg is the mass of the football

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the ball starts from rest)

v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity

Combining the two equations and substituting the values, we find the force exerted on the ball:

$F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(0.55)(8.0-0)}{0.25}=17.6 N$

An electron with a charge of -1.6 × 10-19 coulombs experiences a field of 1.4 × 105 newtons/coulomb. What is the magnitude of th

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Electric force, $F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on an electron is $-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Electric field, $E=1.4\times 10^5\ N/m$

We need to find the magnitude of the electric force on this electron due to this field. The electric force is given by :

$F=qE\\\\F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.4\times 10^5\\\\F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N$

So, the electric force is $2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N$ .

Answer:

7.644 feet

Explanation:

Free fall means that an object is falling freely with no forces acting upon it except gravity, a defined constant, g = -9.8 m/s2. The distance the object falls, or height, h, is 1/2 gravity x the square of the time falling.
