Sam is observing the velocity of a car at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the car is 54 km/h. After four hours

, the velocity of the car is 58 km/h.
Part A: Write an equation in two variables in the standard form that can be used to describe the velocity of the car at different times. Show your work and define the variables used. (5 points)

With that information you can only suppose a uniformly accelerated motion.  This is, acceleration is constant.

Then, acceleration = change in velocity / change in time = (58 -54)km/h / 2 h = 4km/h / 2 h = 2 km/h^2

Then the equation for velocity, V is

V = Vo + a*t = Vo + 2 (km/h^2)  * t = Vo +  2t

Vo is the initial velocity, which you can find using V = 54km/h and t = -2

Vo = V after 2 hours - a*(2hours) = 54km/h - 2(km/h^2)*2h = 54km/k - 4km/h = 50km/h

Then, the equation is: V = 50 km/h + 2t

Valid for constant acceleration.

Which list of properties of alternation current is the most likely reason it was chosen over direct current to provide electrici
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

- Direct current is a current in which electrons flow in one direction only

- Alternating current is a current in which the direction of the electron flow reverses periodically - so, half a cycle forward, half a cycle backward

There are several advantages of using alternating currents for the transmission of electricity across a country, over large distances. The main advantages are:

- The voltage of alternating currents can be easily increased/decreased by using transformers. For instance, a transformer is used at the beginning of the transmission line to increase the voltage (electricity is transmitted at high voltage in order to reduce dissipated power), and then another transformer is used before the electricity enters the houses, in order to decrease the voltage. Transformers only work with alternating currents.

- It is easy to interrupt the flow of an alternating current, because its value naturally becomes zero every half a cycle, so this is useful in case the current must be interrupted.

Which of the following describes a chemical change?
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

D. Burning paper

Explanation:

physical change is just changing the way it looks

chemical change is changing the properties of the object or thing

melting ice is just changing the way it looks it still has the same atoms and elements.

when you burn something it will change the properties of the atoms in the object

A body travels the first half of the total distance with velocity v and second half with v2 calculate avg velocity
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

v = 2 v₁ v₂ / (v₁ + v₂)

Explanation:

The body travels the first half of the distance with velocity v₁.  The time it takes is:

t₁ = (d/2) / v₁

t₁ = d / (2v₁)

Similarly, the body travels the second half with velocity v₂, so the time is:

t₂ = (d/2) / v₂

t₂ = d / (2v₂)

The average velocity is the total displacement over total time:

v = d / t

v = d / (t₁ + t₂)

v = d / (d / (2v₁) + d / (2v₂))

v = d / (d/2 (1/v₁ + 1/v₂))

v = 2 / (1/v₁ + 1/v₂)

v = 2 / ((v₁ + v₂) / (v₁ v₂))

v = 2 v₁ v₂ / (v₁ + v₂)
