If a rocket-powered sled is accelerated to a speed of 440 m/s in 2.20 seconds, then what is the acceleration?

Margarita [4]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

 a = 200 m/s²

Explanation:

Given,

The initial speed of rocket-powered sled, u = 0

The final speed of rocket-powered sled, v = 440 m/s

Time taken to reach final speed, t = 2.20 s

The acceleration of the body is given by the change in velocity by time

                                       a = (v - u) / t

                                          = (440 - 0) / 2.20

                                          = 200 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the rocket-powered sled, a = 200 m/s²

a mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. if the mass of the object is 0.20kg and the spr
Reil [10]

Answer:

4.06 Hz

Explanation:

For simple harmonic motion, frequency is given by

f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {k}{m}} where k is spring constant and m is the mass of the object.

Substituting 0.2 Kg for mass and 130 N/m for k then

f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {130}{0.2}}=4.057670803\\f\approx 4.06 Hz

How does the sun's gravity and the earth inertia keep us orbiting in the solar system
scZoUnD [109]
<span>Inertia keeps us orbiting because any object with mass has the tendency to resist changes to their direction and speed of movement. Combine that with the interaction of the gravitational attraction of the sun, and that is what keeps Earth in orbit. The sun’s gravitational force is one that is proportional to Earth’s mass, and it acts in a way that is almost exactly perpendicular to Earth’s motion. This keeps Earth from spinning into the sun or far away from it.</span>

Alec says the force of gravity is stronger on a piece of paper after it’s crumpled. His classmate, Jordan, disagrees. Alec “prov
Anika [276]
No, gravity acts equally on all objects.  The crumpled paper falls faster because it resists the drag force due to the atmosphere because of its compact size.  A flat piece of paper has an extended body and "catches" the air and falls more slowly.  In a vacuum they would fall at the same rate either way.

Four solid plastic cylinders all have radius 2.41 cm and length 5.94 cm. Find the charge of each cylinder given the following ad
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Check explanation

Explanation:

QUICK NOTE: THE QUESTION IS NOT COMPLETE. Although it is not, we can make assumptions, since we only need values for the UNIFORM CHARGE DENSITY.

SO, LET US BEGIN;

To solve this question we are to use the equation (1) below;

Charge,Q = uniform charge density,p × Total area of the cylinder,A ------------------------------------------------------------------------(1).

From the question, we are given radius, R to be 2.41 cm and length, L to be 5.94 cm.

Step one: calculate for the total area of the cylinder, A.

Total area of the cylinder, A= area of the top surface + area of the buttom + area of the curved surface of the cylinder.

Hence, total area of the cylinder,A is;

==> πR^2 + πR^2 + 2πRL. -------------------------------------------------------------------------(2).

Then, total area of the cylinder,A is;

==> (L + R)2πR.

Step two: find the charge of each cylinder.

===> For the first cylinder; we have the uniform charge density to be 35 nC/m^2.

Therefore, the combination of equation (1) and (3) gives;

Charge Q= p × (L + R)2πR...----------------------------(4)

Hence, Q= 35 × [(5.94 + 2.41) 2× 3.143 × 5.94].= 10912.615 coulumb.

====> For the second cylinder, we have a uniform charge density of 50 nC/m^2.

Using equation (4), charge,Q= 15,589.45 Coulumb

=====> For THE third cylinder, the uniform charge density is 600, we make use of equation (4);

Charge,Q= 600×311.789.

Charge,Q= 187,073.4 coulumb.

====> For THE fourth cylinder, the uniform charge density is 750 nC/m^2.., we make use of equation (4);

Charge,Q= 233,841.75 coulumb.

All Physicsts over here plz help in these questions!!!!!!!!!
mrs_skeptik [129]
Hello!

First one we can use that PE=mgh so we have

4.37*10^5J/(9.12*10^3kg*9.80m/s^2)= 4.89m

Second one we can use Newton’s Second Law
F=ma and in this case F=mg so we have

g= 3.28*10^-2N/6*10^-3kg = 5.47m/s^2

Hope this helps. Any questions please ask. Thank you.
