A speed-time graph is shown below:

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: $0.5 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Average acceleration $a_{ave}$ is the variation of velocity $\Delta V$ over a specified period of time $\Delta t$ :

$a_{ave}=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}}$

Where:

$\Delta V=V_{f}-V_{o}$ being $V_{o}=0 cm/s$ the initial velocity and $V_{f}=4 cm/s$ the final velocity (according to the information given from the described graph)

$\Delta t=8 s$

Then:

$a_{ave}=\frac{4 cm/s -0 cm/s}{8 s}}$

$a_{ave}=0.5 m/s^{2}$

Answer:

wavelenght

Explanation:

The wavelength is the spatial period of a wave, analogous to the temporal period, it is the distance between two consecutive points with maximum amplitude that are repeated in space . In the waves of the sea, the wavelength is easily observed in the separation between two consecutive ridges.

How do we calculate the value of work?

Katarina [22]

The percent complete is calculated by dividing the quantity of material progressed at a point in time by the total quantity required for the project. The resulting percent is multiplied by the current agreed committed value of the material item to obtain the VOWD for that item.

In the Daytona 500 auto race, a Ford Thunderbird and a Mercedes Benz are moving side by side down a straightaway at 71.0 m/s. Th

elena55 [62]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Thunderbird is 995.157 meters behind the Mercedes</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is given that all the cars were moving at a speed of 71 m/s when the driver of Thunderbird decided to take a pit stop and slows down for 250 m. She spent 5 seconds in the pit stop.

Here final velocity $v=0 \ m/s$

initial velocity $u= 71 m/s$ distance

Distance covered in the slowing down phase = $250 m$

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$a= \frac {(v^2-u^2)}{2s}$

$a = \frac {(0^2-71^2)}{(2 \times 250)}=-10.082 \ m/s^2$

$v=u+at$

$t= \frac {(v-u)}{a}$

$= \frac {(0-71)}{(-10.082)}=7.042 s$

$t_1=7.042 s$

The car is in the pit stop for 5s $t_2=5 s$

After restart it accelerates for 350 m to reach the earlier velocity 71 m/s

$a= \frac {(v^2-u^2)}{(2\times s)} = \frac{(71^2-0^2)}{(2 \times 370)} =6.81 \ m/s^2$

$v=u+at$

$t= \frac{(v-u)}{a}$

$t= \frac{(71-0)}{6.81}= 10.425 s$

$t_3=10.425 s$

total time= $t_1 +t_2+t_3=7.042+5+10.425=22.467 s$

Distance covered by the Mercedes Benz during this time is given by $s=vt=71 \times 22.467= 1595.157 m$

Distance covered by the Thunderbird during this time= $250+350=600 m$

Difference between distance covered by the Mercedes and Thunderbird

= $1595.157-600=995.157 m$

Thus the Mercedes is 995.157 m ahead of the Thunderbird.
