A plane flying initially at 100 m/s uses an acceleration of 5 m/s² to reach a velocity of 150 m/s in 10 seconds.
<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>
Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.
A plane is flying initially at 100 m/s (u) and it accelerates to 150 m/s (v) in 10 s (t). We can calculate its acceleration using the following expression.
a = v - u / t = (150 m/s - 100 m/s) / 10 s = 5 m/s²

Answer:
Explanation:
We know that the gravity on the surface of the moon is,
<u>Gravity at a height h above the surface of the moon will be given as:</u>
..........................(1)
where:
G = universal gravitational constant
m = mass of the moon
r = radius of moon
We have:
- is the distance between the surface of the earth and the moon.
Now put the respective values in eq. (1)
is the gravity on the moon the earth-surface.
Answer:
u = - 38.85 m/s^-1
Explanation:
given data:
acceleration = 2.10*10^4 m/s^2
time = 1.85*10^{-3} s
final velocity = 0 m/s
from equation of motion we have following relation
v = u +at
0 = u + 2.10*10^4 *1.85*10^{-3}
0 = u + (21 *1.85)
0 = u + 38.85
u = - 38.85 m/s^-1
negative sign indicate that the ball bounce in opposite directon
Answer:
Centripetal acceleration,
Explanation:
Centripetal acceleration:
Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.
Centripetal means towards the center.
Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.
An acceleration is a change in velocity.
Formula for Centripetal acceleration:
Given here,
Velocity = 4.5 m/s
radius = 7.7 m
To Find :
Solution:
We have,
Substituting given value in it we get
Centripetal acceleration,
We know that the source of light in the universe is the Sun. Hence, the light we see as moonlight travels from the Sun's surface, to the moon, then to Earth. So, before being able to solve this problem, we have to know the distance between the Sun and the moon, and the distance between the moon and Earth. In literature, these values are 3.8×10⁵ km (Sun to moon) and 384,400 km (moon to Earth). Knowing that the speed of light is 300,000 km per second, then the total time would be
Time = distance/speed
Time = (3.8×10⁵ km + 384,400 km)/300,000 km/s
Time = 2.548 seconds
Thus, it only takes 2.548 for the light from the Sun to reach to the Earth as perceived to be what we call moonlight.
