Answer:

The hockey puck will continue moving with constant velocity along a straight line.

Explanation:

As per Newton's first law we know that when there is no net force on an object then the velocity of object will always remains constant

Or we can say that the acceleration of an object will be zero when the force applied on the object is zero.

As per Newton's law we know

$F = ma$

so we will have

a = 0

so object will continue in straight line with same uniform speed without any change in magnitude as well as any change in direction

so correct answer will be

The hockey puck will continue moving with constant velocity along a straight line.

Liz rushes down onto a subway platform to find her train already departing. she stops and watches the cars go by. each car is 8.

Snezhnost [94]

The average velocity can be calculated using the formula:

v = d / t

For the 1st car, the velocity is calculated as:

v1 = 8.60 m / 1.80 s = 4.78 m / s

While that of the 2nd car is:

v2 = 8.60 m / 1.66 s = 5.18 m / s

Now we can solve for the acceleration using the formula:

v2^2 = v1^2 + 2 a d

Rewriting in terms of a:

a = (v2^2 – v1^2) / 2 d

a = (5.18^2 – 4.78^2) / (2 * 8.6)

a = 0.23 m/s

Therefore the train has a constant acceleration of about 0.23 meters per second.

A wooden plaque is in the shape of an ellipse with height 30 centimeters and width 22 centimeters. Find an equation for the elli

Volgvan

Answer:

Explanation:

height of Ellipse $=30 cm$

i.e. $2 a=30$

Width of Ellipse $=22 cm$

i.e. $2 b=22$

Equation of a vertical Ellipse is

$\frac{x^2}{b^2}+\frac{y^2}{a^2}=1$

$a=15 ,b =11$

$\frac{x^2}{11^2}+\frac{y^2}{15^2}=1$

at $y=4 cm$

$\frac{x^2}{11^2}+\frac{4^2}{15^2}=1$

$x=\frac{11}{15}\times \sqrt{15^2-4^2}$

$x=10.6 cm$
