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

Physics
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]3 years ago
4 0

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

1. A sprinter races in the 100 meter dash. It takes him 10 second to reach the finish line
poizon [28]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance covered by a sprinter, d = 100 m

Time taken by him to reach the finish line, t = 10 s

We need to find his average velocity. We know that velocity is equal to the distance covered divided by time taken. So,

v = d/t

v=\dfrac{100\ m}{10\ s}\\\\v=10\ m/s

Hence, his average velocity is 10 m/s.

The circuits, P and Q, show two different ammeter-voltmeter methods of measuring resistance. Suppose the ammeter has a resistanc
qaws [65]

Answer:

Uncorrected values for

For circuit P

R = 2.4 ohm

For circuit Q

R = 2.4 ohm

Corrected values

for circuit P

R = 12 OHM

For circuit Q

R = 2.3 ohm

Explanation:

Given data:

Ammeter resistance 0.10 ohms

Resister resistance 3.0 ohms

Voltmeter read 6 volts

ammeter reads 2.5 amp

UNCORRECTED VALUES FOR

1) circuit P

we know that IR =V

R = \frac{6}{2.5} - 2.4 ohm

2) circuit Q

R = 2.4 ohm as no potential drop across ammeter

CORRECTED VALUES FOR

1) circuit p

IR = V

\frac{3R}{R+3} \times 2.5 = 6

R= 12 ohm

2) circuit Q

I\times (R+0.1) =V

R+0.1 =\frac{6}{2.5}

R = 2.3 ohm

the maximum intensity levels of a trumpet, trombone, and a bass drum, each at a distance of 3m are 94 dB, 107dB, and 113dB respe
Gwar [14]

Answer:

β = 114 db

Explanation:

The intensity of sound in decibles is

          β = 10 log \frac{I}{I_{o}}

in most cases Io is the hearing threshold 1 10-12 W / cm²

let's calculate the intensity of each instrument

            I / I₀ = 10 (β / 10)

            I = I₀ 10 (β / 10)

trumpet

            I1 = 1 10⁻¹² 10 (94/10)

            I1 = 2.51 10⁻³ / cm²

Thrombus

           I2 = 1 10⁻¹² 10 (107/10)

           I2 = 5.01 10-2 W / cm²

low

           I3 =1 1-12    (113/10) W/cm²

            I3 = 1,995 10-1 W / cm²

when we place the three instruments together their sounds reinforce

           I_total = I₁ + I₂ + I₃

           I_ttoal = 2.51 10-3 + 5.01 10-2 + ​​1.995 10-1

           I_total = 0.00251 + 0.0501 + 0.1995

           I_total = 0.25211 W / cm²

let's bring this amount to the SI system

         β = 10 log (0.25211 / 1 10⁻¹²)

           β = 114 db
