A pumkin is dropped, after 5 seconds, its velocity is 47 m/s. What is its acceleration?

Since the pumpkin is dropped, that means it is in freefall and is accelerating at the acceleration due to gravity. The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81m/s down.

What is the amount of "stuff in an object?
Andrei [34K]
Good question. The amount of 'stuff' in an object is it's mass. 

A fundamental distinction we learn in physics is the difference between mass and weight. If we were in deep space, away from any very large objects of mass (like a planet), we would be 'weightless' e.g. not feel the effects of gravity, but we would not be 'massless'. Our mass doesn't change based upon our proximity to large objects (gravitational attraction), but the sense of weight does.

billy bob joe's truck has a mass of 3,800 g and an acceleration of 4.5 m/s^2. what is the force of the truck? (you will have to
maria [59]

Answer:

<h2>17.1 N</h2>

Explanation:

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

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

3800 g = 3.8 kg

We have

force = 3.8 × 4.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>17.1 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

a bus moving at speed of 25m/s beginning to slow at rate 4m/s^2each second how long does it take to stop​
Paladinen [302]

Explanation:

Initial velocity is 25m/s i.e. u. Final velocity would be zero since the bus stopped. It is noted that the bus deccelartion of 4m/s, so the acceleration should be considered negative of 4m/s I.e. 4m/s. So using third law of motion i.e.

v^2 - u^2= 2as

(0)^2 - (25)^2= -2×4×s {Note here I used minus sign in acceleration}

-625 = -8×s

s=625 ÷ 8

s= 125 m

So bus would cover a distance of 125m before coming to rest.
