Displacement is the straight-line distance and direction from start-point to end-point, regardless of the actual path taken.

In this example, that's 10.3 km (rounded) in the direction 14 degrees west of South.

a motorcar is moving with a velocity of 108 km / h and it takes 4s to stop after the brakes are applied calculate the force exer
k0ka [10]

Answer: - 7500N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial Velocity of car = 108km/hr

Time taken to stop after applying brakes = 4s

Mass of passengers in car = 1000kg

Force exerted by the brakes on the car =?

After 4s, then final Velocity (V) = 0

Initial Velocity (u) of the car = 108km/hr

108km/hr = (108 × 1000)m ÷ (3600)s = 30m/s

Force exerted = mass(m) × acceleration(a)

Acceleration of car = Change in Velocity with time

a = (v - u) / t

a = (0 - 30) / 4

a = - 30/ 4

a = - 7.5m/s^2

Therefore,

Force exerted = mass(m) × acceleration(a)

Force exerted = 1000kg × (-7.5)m/s^2

Force exerted = - 7500N

Si un movil parte del reposo logrando una aceleracion de 5 metros por segundo al cuadrado durante 8 segundos calcular la velocid
Komok [63]

Answer:

Velocidad final, V = 40 m/s

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Aceleración = 5 m/s²

Velocidad inicial = 0 m/s (ya que comienza desde el reposo)

Tiempo = 8 segundos

Para encontrar la velocidad final, usaríamos la primera ecuación de movimiento;

V = U + at

Dónde;

  • V es la velocidad final.
  • U es la velocidad inicial.
  • a es la aceleración.
  • t es el tiempo medido en segundos.

Sustituyendo en la fórmula, tenemos;

V = 0 + 5*8

V = 0 + 40

V = 40

<em>Velocidad final, V = 40 m/s</em>

Need help with physics electric question!❤️
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The output voltage is 10 times the input voltage.

So the output coil has 10 times as many turns as the input coil has.

That's how transformers work.

Complicated, huh !

10 times 1,000 turns = <em>10,000 turns</em>

Check my math please? GPE and Power lab
harina [27]
Cases A and B are all correct.

In Case C, the GPE is incorrect. 
(But then, the power and HP have been correctly calculated
from the incorrect value of GPE, so we can't gig you too bad.)
