Answer:

a=2.4\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial speed of a car, u = 0

Time, t = 18 s

Distance, d = 390 m

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Let it is a. Using the second equation of motion to find it.

d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

or

d=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\a=\dfrac{2d}{t^2}\\\\a=\dfrac{2\times 390}{(18)^2}\\\\a=2.4\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.4\ m/s^2.

What is the average acceleration of a jet ski that goes from rest to 10 m/s west in 4 s? Take the direction west to be positive,
skad [1K]

|acceleration| = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

                       = (10 m/s - 0)          /  (4 s)

                       =        (10 / 4) (m/s²)

                       =            2.5 m/s² .

The direction of the acceleration is west.

Proposed Kinematic Exercise I
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

(a) 20 m

(b) 6 m/s²

(c) Between t=0 and t=2, the body moves to the left.

Between t=2 and t=4, the body moves to the right.

Explanation:

v = 3t² − 6t

x(0) = 4

(a) Position is the integral of velocity.

x = ∫ v dt

x = ∫ (3t² − 6t) dt

x = t³ − 3t² + C

Use initial condition to find value of C.

4 = 0³ − 3(0)² + C

4 = C

x = t³ − 3t² + 4

Find position at t = 4.

x = 4³ − 3(4)² + 4

x = 20

(b) Acceleration is the derivative of velocity.

a = dv/dt

a = 6t − 6

Find acceleration at t = 2.

a = 6(2) − 6

a = 6

(c) v = 3t² − 6t

v = 3t (t − 2)

The velocity is 0 at t = 0 and t = 2.  Evaluate the intervals.

When 0 < t < 2, v < 0.

When t > 2, v > 0.

What is carnot engine.express the relation for its efficiency?​
patriot [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

The Carnot cycle is a special case of a thermodynamic cycle that produces an ideal gas and consists of two isothermal  processes and two adiabatic processes. This cycle is a theoretical solution given by Sadi Karnot to refine heat engines for their efficient use.

The formula for the coefficient of efficiency is:

η = (Q₁ - Q₂) / Q₁ = (T₁ - T₂) / T₁

Where Q₁ is is the amount of heat of the heater supplied to the working body and Q₂ is the amount of heat that the working body transfers to the refrigerator according to this T₁ is the temperature of the heater T₂ is the temperature of the refrigerator.

This formula provides a theoretical limit for the maximum value of the coefficient of efficiency of heat engines.

God is with you!!!

A box is pushed horizontally with constant speed across a rough horizontal surface. Which of the following must be true?
Pavel [41]
D

Because if an object is moving at a constant speed the force of friction must equal the applied (horizontal) force, and for it to be accelerating or decelerating, the force of friction and the applied force must be unequal
