The initial speed of a body is 7.1 m/s. What is its speed after 2.23 s if it accelerates uniformly at 2.64 m/s 2 ? Answer in uni
Nana76 [90]

13.0m/s

1.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed of the body = 7.1m/s

time taken = 2.23s

Acceleration = 2.64m/s²

Unknown:

Final speed = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

   a = \frac{V - U}{T}

a  = acceleration

V = final speed

U = initial speed

T = time taken

  Input the variables and solve for V;

 

   2.64 = \frac{V - 7.1}{2.23}  

  V - 7.1 = 5.9                              expression 1

  V = 5.9 + 7.1 = 13.0m/s

B

Using the same parameters, the speed after a uniform deceleration of -2.64m/s², the negative sign implies deceleration;

 from expression 1;

           V - 7.1  = -5.9

           V = -5.9 + 7.1 = 1.2m/s

Would water molecules in Venus’ atmosphere, whose temperature is 740 K, escape into outer space? A water molecule has a mass tha
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus.

Explanation:

The average speed of gas molecules is given by:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}

R is the gas constant, T is the temperature and M the molar mass of the gas.

We know that a water molecule has a mass that is 18 times that of a hydrogen atom:

M_H=1.01*10^{-3}\frac{kg}{mol}\\M_{H2O}=18M_H=0.02\frac{kg}{mol}

So, we have:

v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3(8.314\frac{J}{mol \cdot K})740K}{0.02\frac{kg}{mol}}}\\v_{rms}=960.65\frac{m}{s}*\frac{1km}{1000m}=0.96\frac{km}{s}

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus:

10\frac{km}{s}*\frac{1}{6}=1.6\frac{km}{s}\\0.96\frac{km}{s}

A horizontal force of 100 N is required to push a 50 kg crate across a factory floor at a constant speed. What is the accelerati
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a = 2m/s^2

Explanation:

Force (F) = 100 N

Mass (m) = 50 kg

Here,

F = m×a

100 = 50 × a

a = 100÷50

a = 2m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration on the cart is a = 2m/s^2

What is the speed of a car that traveled 500 meter in 30 seconds?
GenaCL600 [577]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find speed, you need to remember the formula:

Speed = distance ÷ time

So plug the given values in:

500 ÷ 30 = 16.66

<h3>So the speed is 16.66m/s (metres per second)</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
