Answer:

-3.5m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Initial Velocity, u = 30m/s

Final Velocity, v = 23m/s

Time, t = 2.0s

Required

Determine the magnitude of acceleration

This is calculated using first equation of motion.

v = u + at

Substitute values for v, u and t

23 = 30 + a * 2.0

23 = 30 + 2.0a

23 - 30 = 2.0a

-7 =2.0a

Solve for a

a = -7 ÷ 2.0

a = -3.5m/s²

Sergio [31]
The correct answer is (b.) y/x hertz. That is because the formula to get the frequency is f =  v / w. The following values (v=y meters / second; wavelength = x meters) must be substituted to the equation, which leaves you y/x hertz.

A player holds two baseballs a height h above the ground. He throws one ball vertically upward at speed v0 and the other vertica
Degger [83]

Answer:

a)  v = √(v₀² + 2g h),    b)      Δt = 2 v₀ / g

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the mathematical expressions, where the directional towards at is considered positive.

The velocity of each ball is

ball 1. thrown upwards vo is positive

        v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

in this case the height y is zero and the height i = h

        v = √(v₀² + 2g h)

ball 2 thrown down, in this case vo is negative

         v = √(v₀² + 2g h)

The times to get to the ground

ball 1

         v = v₀ - g t₁

         t₁ = \frac{v_{o}  - v }{ g}

ball 2

         v =  -v₀ - g t₂

         t₂ = -  \frac{v_{o}  + v }{ g}  

From the previous part, we saw that the speeds of the two balls are the same when reaching the ground, so the time difference is

       Δt = t₂ -t₁

       Δt = \frac{1}{g} \ [(v_{o} - v)  - ( - v_{o}  - v) ]

       Δt = 2 v₀ / g

When an electric current flows through a wire a
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Option C. is correct

Explanation:

The magnetic field is the area around a magnet in which there is magnetic force. When an electric current flows through a wire a  magnetic field is created. A single wire does not produce a strong magnetic field. So, to increase the power  of the magnetic field, increase the number of coils in the wire.
