Answer:

A horse is running at 12m/s accelerated to 38m/s in 10 seconds. What is the horses acceleration.

2.6m/s^2

A car slows down uniformly from a speed of 30.0 m/s to rest in 7.20 s
Ede4ka [16]

When acceleration is constant, the average velocity is given by

\bar v=\dfrac{v+v_0}2

where v and v_0 are the final and initial velocities, respectively. By definition, we also have that the average velocity is given by

\bar v=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{x-x_0}{t-t_0}

where x,x_0 are the final/initial displacements, and t,t_0 are the final/initial times, respectively.

Take the car's starting position to be at t_0=0\,\mathrm s. Then

\dfrac{v+v_0}2=\dfrac{x-x_0}t\implies x=x_0+\dfrac12(v+v_0)t

So we have

x=0\,\mathrm m+\dfrac12\left(0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+30.0\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(7.20\,\mathrm s)=108\,\mathrm m

You also could have first found the acceleration using the equation

v=v_0+at

then solve for x via

x=x_0+v_0t+\dfrac12at^2

but that would have involved a bit more work, and it turns out we didn't need to know the precise value of a anyway.

What should be angle between force and displacement to get the maximum work​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer: The angle between force and displacement should be θ = 90° for minimum work. The angle between force and displacement should be θ = 0° for maximum work.

What’s the formula for work
padilas [110]

Answer:

Fd

Explanation:

Work is force times distance. If you push on an object really hard but it does not budge, you have still performed no work on it, because anything times zero is still zero.

Explain why a diverging lens is used to correct nearsightedness (difficulty seeing objects far away).
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

so that it can diverge the light to make sure that it focused on the ratina and the image is formed.

Explanation:

nearsightedness is when the light is focused in front of the ratina and for an image to be formed in the eye, the light must be focused on the ratina so to correct that we use the diverging lenses so that it will diverge the light and allow the cornea and the lens to converge it so it is focused on the ratina.
