An object is moving initially with a velocity of 4.7 m/s . After 3.9 s the object's velocity is -2.1 m/s . What is the object's

average acceleration during this time?
I believe that the vf is -2.1 m/s vi should be 4.7 m/s and the t should be 3.9s but its wrong..? #confused

Answer: The acceleration of the object is 0.67m/s^2 west.

Explanation: Here we are given the initial velocity and final velocity as well as the time taken. Acceleration is the change in velocity per unit time, thus the equation becomes.

a=dv/t

a=vf-vi/t

a=-2.1-4.7/3.9

a= 0.66m/s^2 west

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

<h3>According to Newton's third law, for every reaction there will be equal and opposite reaction</h3>

Here in this case the force of the club hitting the golf ball will be in one direction and the force acting on club due to golf ball will be in opposite direction and magnitude of this force will be same as the magnitude of the force of the club hitting the golf ball

In this case the action will be the force of the club hitting the golf ball and reaction will be the force acting on club due to golf ball

∴ The club pushes against to golf ball with a force equal and opposite to the force of the golf ball on the club

List 5 reason why water is not thermometric liquid​
kolezko [41]

Answer:

(1) it is transparent so it makes the reading difficult. (2) it is volatile. (3) it is a poor conductor of heat. (4) it has a higher specific heat capacity, so it absorbs more heat from the body with which it is kept in contact. (5) Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids . If water is used in a thermometer , it will start phase change at 0oC and 100oC and will not measure temperature , out of this range .

Tanya [424]
Because it records speed of the car at a certain time, the independent variable should be time and dependent would be speed or velocity. Since it's taken every second, it would be considered instantaneous velocity, which is D.

Distance is the length of a path followed by a particle. The displacement of a particle is defined as its change in position in
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Distance is described with only magnitude. It is defined as the total path covered by an object, in other words it  is the length of a path followed by a particle.

Displacement is described with both magnitude and direction. It is distance traveled in a specified direction or  change in position in some time interval.

Therefore, the correct option is " a. True"
