A car moving west slows down from a velocity of 50 m/s to 20 m/s in 15 seconds. What is its acceleration?

Physics

velikii [3]3 years ago
6 0
Vf = Vo + at

Vf = 20 m/s
Vo = 50 m/s
a = ? 
t = 15

Therefore

20 = 50 + 15a

20 - 50 = 15a

-30 = 15a

a = -30 / 15

a = -2 m/s²

What is the acceleration of a 349 kg object that moved with a force of 750 N?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.15 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

where

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{750}{349}  \\  = 2.14899713...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.15 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

How high would you have to lift a 1000kg car to give it a potential energy of:
Elza [17]

Given parameters:

Mass of the car = 1000kg

Unknown:

Height  = ?

To find the heights for the different amount potential energy given, we need to understand what potential energy is.

Potential energy is the energy at rest due to the position of a body.

 It is mathematically expressed as:

          P.E  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

h is the height of the car

Now the unknown is h, height and we make it the subject of the expression to make for easy calculation.

               h = \frac{P.E }{mg}

<u>For 2.0 x 10³ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{2000}{1000 x 9.8}   = 0.204m

<u>For 2.0 x 10⁵ J;</u>

                  h  = \frac{200000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 20.4m

<u>For 1.0kJ  = 1 x 10³J; </u>

                  h  = \frac{1000}{9.8 x 1000}   = 0.102m
