They are cratered because of meteoroids, neither of them have an atmosphere to disintegrate the meteors, and neither of them have water to erode the craters.

A drag racing vehicle travels from 0 to 100mph north in 5 seconds. What is the acceleration
kap26 [50]

The acceleration of the car is 8.9 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time elapsed

Here we have to convert the initial and final velocity of the vehicle into SI units. So we have:

u = 0 is the initial velocity

v=100 mph \cdot \frac{1609 m/mi}{3600 s/h}=44.7 m/s is the final velocity

t = 5 s is the time elapsed

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{44.7-0}{5}=8.9 m/s^2

Explain how the magnitude of the gravitational force between the earth and the sun changes as the earth moves from position 'A'
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

We are not told where A and B are, but I'll assume that they are two points on the orbit of earth about the sun.

As that orbit is an ellipse, the two points likely do not have the same distance between the earth and sun.

As gravity varies with the inverse of the square of the distance (F = GMm/d²), the force at the closer distance will be greater than the force at the longer distance.

A force of 6.0 N is applied horizontally to a 3.0 kg crate initially at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface. After the cra
Savatey [412]

Answer:

a. Yes, because the acceleration of the crate is 2.0 m/s².

Explanation:

Given

Force = 6N --- f

Mass = 3kg --- m

Time = 1.5s --- t

Velocity = 3.0m/s --- v

Required

Does the system support F=ma

Yes, it does and this is shown below

The crate is initially at rest; so:

u = 0

Using the first equation of motion

v = u + at

Substitute values for v, u and t

3 = 0 + a*1.5

3 = 1.5a

Make a the subject

a = 3/1.5

a = 2

Using F = ma

Substitute values for F and m

6 = 3 * a

Divide both sides by 3

6/3 = 3/3 * a

2 = a

a = 2

In both cases:

a = 2

<em>Hence, option (a) is correct.</em>
