Answer:
u=36.8m/s
Explanation:
because of the acceleration is a constant acceleration we can use one of the "SUVAT" equations
u^2=v^2-2ā*s. where:
u^2 stands for intial velocity
v^2 stands for final velocity
since the cougar skidded to a complete stop the final velocity is zero.
u^2=v^2-2ā*s
u^2=(0)^2 -2(-2.87 m/s^2)*236 m
u^2=0+5.74m/s^2* 236m
u^2=1354.64m^2/s^2
u=√1354.64m^2/s^2
u=36.8m/s (approximate value)
when ever the acceleration is constant you can use one of the following equation to find the required value.
1. v = u + at. (no s)
2. s= 1/2(u+v)t. (no ā)
3. s=ut + 1/2at^2. ( no v)
4. v^2=u^2 + 2āS. (no t). 5. s= vt - 1/2at^2. (no u)
When a satellite is revolving into the orbit around a planet then we can say
net centripetal force on the satellite is due to gravitational attraction force of the planet, so we will have
now we can say that kinetic energy of satellite is given as
also we know that since satellite is in gravitational field of the planet so here it must have some gravitational potential energy in it
so we will have
so we can say that energy from the fuel is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of the satellite
The acceleration should 5.4 m/s^2
Answer: Hipparchus & Ptolemy believed sun and moon travel around circles with Earth in the middle (geocentric) while Plato and Aristotle believed Perfect unchanging heavens
Explanation: thus hipparchus and ptolemy violate early greek philosophy
