What is the acceleration of a car that moves at a steady velocity of 100 km/h for 100 seconds? Explain your answer.

Physics

RUDIKE [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a = 0 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

car moving at steady velocity = 100 Km/h

         1 km/h = 0.278 m/s

      100 Km/h = 27.8 m/s

time of acceleration = 100 s

acceleration is equal to change in velocity per unit time.

 a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

change in velocity of the car is 27.8 - 27.8 = 0

 a=\dfrac{0}{100}

        a = 0 m/s²

If the car is moving with steady velocity then acceleration of the car is zero.

Hence, the acceleration of the car is equal to a = 0 m/s²

In the high jump, the kinetic energy of an athlete is transformed into gravitational potential energy without the aid of a pole.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

6.0 m/s

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy (potential, PE, + kinetic, KE) of the athlete must be conserved.

Therefore, we can write:

KE_i+PE_i =KE_f+PE_f

or

\frac{1}{2}mu^2+0=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh

where:

m is the mass of the athlete

u is the initial speed of the athlete (at the bottom)

0 is the initial potential energy of the athlete (at the bottom)

v = 0.80 m/s is the final speed of the athlete (at the top)

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 1.80 m is the final height of the athlete (at the top)

Solving the equation for u, we find the initial speed at which the athlete must jump:

u=\sqrt{v^2+2gh}=\sqrt{0.80^2+2(9.8)(1.80)}=6.0 m/s

Answer:

Refraction

Explanation:

When light passes from a rarer medium into a denser medium, it bends in the medium away from the normal. This creates the phenomenon of "apparent depth" as given in the question.

The outer planets are similar to the planet Earth; they just happen to be farther away from the Sun.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The inner planets are called terrestrial planets due to the surfaces are solid (similar to Earth)-made up of heavy metals, either have no moons or few moons.

The outer planets are called Jovian planets or gas giants because they are encased in gas.  They all have rings with plenty of moons.
