Answer: 10 meters/ second squared

Explanation:

started from rest means that its initial velocity is 0

acceleration=(v final - v initial) / time

a= (40 - 0)/4

a= 10

A spring-loaded gun can fire a projectile to a height h if it is fired straight up. if the same gun is pointed at an angle of 45
Naily [24]
When firing straight up:
v^2 = u^2 - 2gh, where v = final velocity = 0, u = initial velocity, g = gravitational acceleration, h = maximum height attained.

Then,
0 = u^2 - 2gh
u = Sqrt (2gh) ---- (1)

When firing at 45°,
Initial velocity, U = u Sin 45 = Sqrt (2gh)·Sin 45

Maximum height, H = U^2*(Sin Ф)^2/2g

substituting;
H = [Sqrt (2gh)·Sin 45]^2*(Sin 45)^2]/2g
H = [2gh*(Sin 45)^2*(Sin 45)^2]/2g
H = [h*(Sin 45)^4] = h/4

Therefore, maximum height when the gun fires at 45° is a quarter of maximum height when the gun fires vertically up.

Dominic Roth is in a roller coaster car, which rapidly picks up speed as it rolls down a slope.
stiv31 [10]

Answer: 6m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

Initial velocity = 4m/s

Final velocity = 22m/s

Time = 3s

Acceleration = (22 - 4) / 3

a = 18 / 3 = 6m/s²

These rocks can be any of the following listed but they cannot be solid aa lava. This is because solid aa lava would not be smooth, rounded rocks and would not be scattered on the ground.
