Answer:

The correct answer is 3.5 m/s²

Explanation:

To determine the average acceleration of the rock,

the change in velocity is divided by the time interval (in seconds)

change in velocity = V₂ - V₁

where V₁ is the initial velocity (2.0 m/s) and V₂ is the final velocity (44.0 m/s)

change in velocity = 44 - 2 = 42 m/s

The time interval is 12 seconds (no need for conversion as it is in seconds already)

average acceleration of the rock = 42 ÷ 12 = 3.5 m/s²

As this happens over twelve seconds, you would take the total difference in velocities and divide it by twelve to find the change per second

44.0 m/s - 2.0 m/s = 42.0 m/s 

42.0 m/s / 12 s = 3.5 m/s2

the acceleration of the rock would be 3.5 m/s2

An open-topped freight car with mass 24,000 kg is coasting without friction along a level track. It is raining very hard, and th
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

(a) v = 3..6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

Explanation:

from the question we have the following:

mass of the car (Mc) = 24,000 kg

initial velocity of the car (u) = 4 m/s

mass of water (Mw) = 3000 kg

final velocity of the car (v) = ?

(a) we can calculate the final momentum of the car by applying the conservation of momentum where

initial momentum = final momentum

Mc x U = (Mc + Mw) x V

24000 x 4 = (24000 + 3000) x v

96,000 = 27000v

v =3.6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.
