Answer:

16 m

Explanation:

For an object in uniformly accelerated motion (=with constant acceleration), the distance covered by the body can be found by using the following suvat equation:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For the body in this problem,

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

$a=2 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

Substituting t = 4 s, we find the distance covered:

$s=0+\frac{1}{2}(2)(4)^2=16 m$

Which of these statements are true about scientific theories and laws?

anygoal [31]

<span>The best response would be that theories are not opinions. While laws and theories are similar, laws tend to be a collection of theories about the same phenomenon. Laws can be expressed as math formulae, but more often they're in the form of "if-then" statements. Laws and theories both have to be rigorously tested before they reach these classiffications.</span>

Two identical cylindrical vessels with their bases at the same level each contain a liquid of density 1.23 g/cm3. The area of ea

Explanation:

Work done by gravity is given by the formula,

W = $\rho A (h_{1} - h)g (h - h_{2})$ ......... (1)

It is known that when levels are same then height of the liquid is as follows.

h = $\frac{h_{1} + h_{2}}{2}$ ......... (2)

Putting value of equation (2) in equation (1) the overall formula will be as follows.

W = $\frac{1}{4} \rho gA(h_{1} - h_{2})^{2})$

= $\frac{1}{4} \times 1.23 g/cm^{3} \times 9.80 m/s^{2} \times 3.89 \times 10^{-4} m^{2}(1.76 m - 0.993 m)^{2})$

= 0.689 J

Thus, we can conclude that the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected is 0.689 J.

6 mph/s

Calculating acceleration involves dividing velocity by time — or in terms of SI units, dividing the meter per second [m/s] by the second [s]. Dividing distance by time twice is the same as dividing distance by the square of time. Thus the SI unit of acceleration is the meter per second squared .
