A car accelerates uniformly in a straight line
erik [133]

Answer:

21.59 m/s

Explanation:

recall that one of the equations of motions can be expressed as

v² = u² + 2as

where,

v = final velocity (we are asked to find this)

u = initial velocity = 0m/s (because it says that it starts from rest)

a = acceleration = 3.7m/s²

s = distance travelled = 63 m

simply substitute the known values above into the equation:

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0² + 2(3.7)(63)

v² = 466.2

v = √466.2

v = 21.59 m/s

An object propelled upwards with an acceleration of 2.0 m / s ^ 2 is launched from rest. After 6 seconds the fuel runs out. Dete
dezoksy [38]

Answer:43.34 m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration(a)=2 m/s^2

Initial Velocity(u)=0 m/s

After 6 s fuel runs out

Velocity after 6 s

v=u+at

v=0+2\times 6=12 m/s

After this object will start moving under gravity

height reached in first 6 s

s=ut+\frac{at^2}{2}

s=0+\frac{2\times 6^2}{2}

s=36 m

After fuel run out distance traveled in upward direction is

v^2-u^2=2as_0

here v=0

u=12 m/s

a=9.8 m/s^2

0-12^2=2(-9.8)(s)

s_0=\frac{144}{2\times 9.8}=7.34 m

s+s_0=36+7.34=43.34 m

Two rocks of different masses are rolling down a hill at the same speed. Which rock (small one or big one) would have more kinet
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Kinetic energy of bigger rock will be more than that of smaller one.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the rock is given by,

Kinetic energy = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}

As velocity of both the rocks are same. Thus, kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the rock

Kinetic energy ∝ mass

So, For greater mass kinetic energy will be greater and for smaller mass kinetic energy will be smaller.

Hence, Kinetic energy of bigger rock will be more than that of smaller one.

A ball is dropped off the roof of a tall building. If the ball reaches the ground in 8 seconds, how tall is the building, in met
Ghella [55]

Let <em>b</em> be the height of the building, and <em>y</em> the height of the ball at time <em>t</em>, given by

<em>y</em> = <em>b</em> - 1/2 <em>gt</em>²

where <em>g</em> = 9.8 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

It takes the ball 8 s to reach the ground, at which point <em>y</em> = 0, so that

0 = <em>b</em> - 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 1/2 (9.8 m/s²) (8 s)²

<em>b</em> = 313.6 m
