Starting from rest, a runner accelerates to 10 m/s in 5 s. What is the acceleration of the runner?

Physics

A=vf-vi / time

* vi here is zero as the runner started from rest*
so
a= 10-0/5 which equals 2 m/s^2

Suppose that the collector is held at a small negative voltage with respect to the grid. Will the accelerated electrons reach th
Leona [35]

Answer:

B) Yes, but only those electrons with energy greater than the potential difference established between the grid and the collector will reach the collector.

Explanation:

In the case when the collector would held at a negative voltage i.e. small with regard to grid So yes the accelerated electrons would be reach to the collecting plate as the kinetic energy would be more than the potential energy that because of negative potential

so according to the given situation, the option b is correct

And, the rest of the options are wrong

A bumblebee darts past at 3 m/s. The frequency of the hum made by its wings is 152 Hz. Assume the speed of sound to be 342 m/s.
Veronika [31]

It'll be 152 Hz at the exact instant the bumblebee
is right at the tip of your nose, on his way past you.

Before he gets there, while he's coming at you,
he sounds like a frequency higher than 152 Hz.

After he passes by, and is going away from you,
he sounds like a frequency lower than 152 Hz.

A student gives a 5.0 kg box a brief push causing the box to move with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s along a rough surface. The bo
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.

Explanation:

Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

F=mass\times acceleration\\\\\therefore acceleration=\frac{Force}{mass}

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg

Frictional force = 30 N

thus

acceleration=\frac{30}{5}=6m/s^{2}

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics

The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

v=u+at\\\\0=8-6\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{8}{6}=4/3seconds

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.
