Calculate the acceleration of a bus full speed changes from 6 miles to 12 miles over a period of three seconds

Physics

Answer:

0.90m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 6miles/hr

Final speed  = 12miles/hr

Time taken = 3 seconds

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is mathematically given as:

         Acceleration  = \frac{Final speed - Initial speed}{Time}

We need to convert miles/hr to meters/seconds

Initial speed = 6 x \frac{miles }{hour} x \frac{1hr}{3600s}  x \frac{1609.34m}{1mile}

                      = 2.68m/s

Final speed = 12 x \frac{1609.34}{3600}  = 5.37m/s

      Acceleration  = \frac{5.37  - 2.68}{3}   = 0.90m/s²

<h2>The car tire makes 149 revolutions before coming to stop.</h2>

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

Initial velocity, u = 32.4 m/s  

Acceleration, a = -1.70 m/s²  

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s  

Substituting  

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 32.4² + 2 x -1.70 x s

s = 308.75 m  

Distance traveled before stopping is 308.75 m

Radius of tire = 0.330 m

Circumference of tire = 2πx 0.33 = 2.07 m

1 revolution = 2.07 m

\texttt{Number of revolutions = }\frac{308.75}{2.07}=148.91

The car tire makes 149 revolutions before coming to stop.

Which coefficient is needed in front of NaNO3 to balance the equation Na2S + Zn(NO3)2 → ZnS + _NaNO3? 1, 2, 5, 7,
maksim [4K]

The coefficient is needed in front of NaNO3 to balance the equation is 2.

<h3>What is balanced equation?</h3>

When in a chemical reaction, both the product elements or compounds should have number of moles equal to that of the elements or compounds of reactants.

In the given chemical reaction equation,

Na2S + Zn(NO3)2 → ZnS + _NaNO3

Number of moles of S is 1 on both the product and reactant side. Zn has 1 mole on both side. NO3 has 2 mole and Na has 2 mole on reactant side. So to balance the equation, Na and NO3 both must have 2 moles on product side.

Thus, the coefficient is needed in front of NaNO3 to balance the equation is 2.

What can I do to increase range of motion in a joint
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Damian here! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

Stretching is used to improve range-of-motion (ROM) of a joint, but why? The most common reason is that the joint ROM is limited and is somehow affecting performance of a desired activity. Stretching is also used as a preventative measure.

Explanation:hope this helps? :))
