The acceleration of the object is $6.7 m/s^2$

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Newton's second law, which states that the net force exerted on an object is equal to the product between the mass of the object and its acceleration:

$F=ma$

where

F is the net force

m is the mass of the object

a is its acceleration

For the object in this problem,

F = 500 N is the applied force

m = 75 kg is the force

Solving the equation for a, we find the acceleration:

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{500}{75}=6.7 m/s^2$

Answer:

$a=-0.33\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Accelerated Motion

The acceleration of a moving body is defined as the relation of change of speed (or velocity in vector form) with the time taken. The formula is given by

$\displaystyle a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}$

Or, equivalently

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}$

Where vf and vo are the final and initial speeds respectively. The problem gives us these values: v0 = 3 m/s, vf = 1 m/s, t = 3 seconds. Computing a

$\displaystyle a=\frac{1-3}{3}=-0.33\ m/s^2$

The negative sing of a indicates there is deceleration or decreasing speed

A car accelerates uniformly from rest at a speed of 1.67 ft s^2 over a distance of 5 yards.What is the acceleration of a car?

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a= 17.69 m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to 23 m/s

u= 0m/s

v= 23m/s

distance= 30m

Step two:

We know that

acceleration= velocity/time

also,

velocity= distance/time

23= 30/t

t= 30/23

t= 1.30 seconds

hence

acceleration= 23/1.30

accelaration= 17.69 m/s^2

AleksandrR [38]

We know, by conservation of energy :

$\dfrac{kx^2}{2}=mgh$

Therefore,

$\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}$

Putting given values, we get :

$\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{h_1}{h_2}\\\\\dfrac{4.9^2}{x_2^2}=\dfrac{50.2}{2\times 50.2}\\\\x_2^2=2\times 4.9^2\\\\x_2 = 4.9\times \sqrt{2}\\\\x_2=6.93\ cm$

Therefore, the spring be compressed to 6.93 cm to send the ball twice as high.

Hence, this is the required solution.

ivann1987 [24]

It stores energy and delivers it in a short burst.

The whirring sound is produced by the charging of the capacitor. A capacitor is an electrical component which is capable of storing charge. When the capacitor stores charge, it is storing energy. After doing so, the capacitor releases the electrical energy that it had stored as light energy, which is seen as the flash of the camera. It must do so in a burst, because the intensity of the flash is very high and would require a high amount of energy to maintain.
