Answer:

a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{o}  }{t_{f}-t_{o}  } =\frac{(7-22)\frac{m}{s} }{5s-0s} =-3\frac{m}{s^{2} }

Explanation:

We know that the initial velocity is 22 m/s

<u>The final velocity </u><u>after applying the brakes</u><u> is 7 m/s, and the time that takes it to break is </u><u>5 seconds</u>

We know that the concept of acceleration is the change of velocity in time

a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{o}  }{t_{f}-t_{o}  } =\frac{(7-22)\frac{m}{s} }{5s-0s} =-3\frac{m}{s^{2} }

<u><em>The answer is negative since the car is slowing down  </em></u>

You exert a force of 15 newtons while you move a rock 2 meters. How much work did you perform?
grandymaker [24]
The formula to find work is Work = Force * Distance. In this case, the force exerted on the rock is 15 Newtons and the distance the rock moved was 2 meters, so 15 * 2 = 30. The answer to your question is D) 30 n-m.

Rutherford proposed that...
geniusboy [140]
It is B because when he made the rays go through the atoms, a very small little of it created a repulsion which resulted in him proposing that there is a dense, positive nucleus in the atom while electrons are spinning around.
