4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

distance = 400 m

time = 50 s

speed = distance / time

= 400 / 50

= <u><em>8 m/s</em></u>

Hope this helps

a ball rolls off the edge of a 2m high shelf at a speed of 5 m/s and hits the ground the taken to hit the ground is
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

Δx = v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2 where delta x is the displacement of the object, v0 is the velocity of the object, a is the pull of gravity, and t is the time in seconds. That's our unknown.

Δx = -2 (negative because where it ends up is lower than the point at which it started),

v_0=5, and

a = -9.8

Filling in:

-2=5t+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8) t^2 and simplified a bit:

-2=5t-4.9 t^2

this should look hauntingly familiar (a quadratic, which is parabolic motion...very important in physics!!). We begin by getting everything on one side of the equals sign and solving for t by factoring:

-4.9 t^2+5t+2=0 (the 0 is also indicative of the object landing on the ground! Isn't this a beautiful thing, how it all just works so perfectly together?)

When you factor this however your math/physics teacher has you factoring you will get that

t = 1.3 sec and t = -.31 sec

Since we all know that time can NEVER be negative, it takes the ball 1.3 sec to hit the ground from a height of 2 m if it is rolling off the shelf at 5 m/s.

1) What would the average acceleration be for a car at a stoplight that speeds up to 20 m/s in 10 seconds (in m/s^2)
Alexxx [7]
1.)
Velocity is in m/s, and acceleration is in m/s^2 like you said. Because of this, we can calculate this by dividing the speed by the time it took to get to that speed.
(20 meters/second) / 10 seconds = 2 meters/ second^2

2.)
Same thing with the first one.
(100 meters/second) / 4 seconds = 25 meters / seconds^2

netineya [11]
The question "<span>In a redox reaction the substance that accepts electrons is said to be?" is a bit vague. By definition, a "redox" or "reduction" reaction is one where classified by a gain of electrons. On the other hand, if it is a loss of electrons, then it is an oxidation reaction.</span>
