Acceleration can be defined as the rate at which velocity ________

Physics
2 answers:
Savatey [412]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The speed is 20 m/s, and the direction is "downward". Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Usually, acceleration means the speed is changing, but not always. When an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, it is still accelerating, because the direction of its velocity is changing.

Acceleration is the rate of the change in velocity.

The answer would be the rate at which velocity changes.

The current in a series circuit is 19.3 A. When an additional 7.40-Ω resistor is inserted in series, the current drops to 13.4 A
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

16.8ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends.

Mathematically, V = IRt where;

V is the voltage across the circuit

I is the current

R is the effective resistance

For a series connected circuit, same current but different voltage flows through the resistors.

If the initial current in a circuit is 19.3A,

V = 19.3R... (1)

When additional resistance of 7.4-Ω is added and current drops to 13.4A, our voltage in the circuit becomes;

V = 13.4(7.4+R)... (2)

Note that the initial resistance is added to the additional resistance because they are connected in series.

Equating the two value of the voltages i.e equation 1 and 2 to get the resistance in the original circuit we will have;

19.3R = 13.4(7.4+R)

19.3R = 99.16+13.4R

19.3R-13.4R = 99.16

5.9R = 99.16

R= 99.16/5.9

R = 16.8ohms

The resistance in the original circuit will be 16.8ohms

The 1.0-kg collar slides freely on the fixed circular rod. Calculate the velocity v of the collar as it hits the stop at B if it
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

6.21 m/s

Explanation:

Using work energy equation then

U_{1-2}=T_B- T_A\\58d-mgh=0.5m(v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})

where d is displacement from initial to final position, v is velocity and subscripts a and b are position A and B respectively, m is mass of collar, g is acceleration due to gravity

Substituting 1 Kg for m, 0.4m for h, v_a as 0, 9.81 for g then

58(\sqrt{0.4^{2}+0.3^{2}}-0.1)-(1\times 9.81\times 0.4)=0.5\times 1\times (v_b^{2}-v_a^{2})\\19.276=0.5\times 1v_b^{2}\\v_b=6.209025688 m/s\approx 6.21 m/s

For a solar eclipse to occur which of the following alignments must be necessary
katovenus [111]
Very specific alignment of the Sun, Earth, and Moon. If the Moon is lined up precisely with the Sun from the Earth's point of view, the Moon will block Sunlight from reaching the Earth, causing a solar eclipse.
