A car is moving 14.4 m/s. It decelerates at -1.55 m/s^2 for 4.26 s. It then accelerates at 1.83 m/s^2 until it reaches 11.8 m/s.

What was the total time?

The total time is 6.45 s

Explanation:

The motion of the car is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can use suvat equations.

In the first part,

u_1 = 14.4 m/s (initial velocity)

a_1 = -1.55 m/s^2 (acceleration)

t_1=4.26 s (time of the first part)

So, we can find the velocity of the car after the first part, by using

v_1 = u_1 +a_1 t_1 =14.4+(-1.55)(4.26)=7.8 m/s

This is therefore the initial velocity of the second part:

u_2 = v_1 = 7.8 m/s

a_2 = 1.83 m/s^2 (acceleration in the second part)

v_2 = 11.8 m/s (final velocity)

And therefore,

v_2 = u_2 + a_2 t_2\\t_2=\frac{v_2-u_2}{a_2}=\frac{11.8-7.8}{1.83}=2.19 s

So, the total time is

t=t_1+t_2=4.26+2.19=6.45 s

What is the modern<br> Jatomic theory?
torisob [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

The modern atomic theory has given by "John Dalton and framed postulates".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The fundamental role of atoms in chemistry is established by the modern theory of atoms mentioned in 1808 for the first time by an English scientist named John Dalton. This consists of three sections such as all matter is composed of atoms, atoms of the same element are the same while atoms of different elements are different, atoms combine to form compounds in full-number ratios.

The unique characteristic of the "number of protons" is that all atoms of the same compound share. While the atoms of the same element i.e having a similar number of protons can have different numbers of neutrons and such elements are called isotopes.

The answer that completes the statement is this: A PHOTOGRAPH OF THE PARTICIPANT'S FIRST-GRADE CLASS INCREASED THE LIKELIHOOD OF FALSE MEMORIES. This experiment is similar to Maryanne Gary's experiment which also states that viewing memory as a tape or video recording can be mistaken and may create false memories.

if u connect 3 resistors, having values 2ohm, 3ohm, 5ohm in parallel, will the value of total resistance of will be 2ohm or grea
Tju [1.3M]
<span>If u want only WHether the total resistance is less than 2 or less than 5 or more than 5 ohms:  there is a Simple way.

When you connect resistances in parallel, resultant resistance is always smaller than all of them. So it is less than 2 ohms</span>.

A coin dropped in the lift it takes time 0.5 s to reach the floor when lift is staionary it takes time t when lift is moving up
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

t₁ > t₂

Explanation:

A coin is dropped in a lift. It takes time t₁ to reach the floor when lift is stationary. It takes time t₂ when lift is moving up with constant acceleration. Then t₁ > t₂,  t₁ = t₂,  t₁ >> t₂ ,  t₂ > t₁

Solution:

Newton's law of motion is given by:

s = ut + (1/2)gt²;

where s is the the distance covered, u is initial velocity, g is the acceleration due to gravity and t is the time taken.

u = 0 m/s, t₁ is the time to reach ground when the light is stationary and t₂ is the time to reach ground when the lift is moving with a constant acceleration a.

hence:

When stationary:

s=\frac{1}{2}gt_1^2\\\\t_1^2=\frac{2s}{g}  \\\\When\ moving\ with\ acceleration(a):\\\\s=\frac{1}{2}(g+a)t_2^2\\\\t_2^2=\frac{2s}{g+a}

Hence t₂ < t₁, this means that t₁ > t₂.

Which of the following is not a true statement?<br> v=at<br> O art
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

t = Δa / v

Explanation:

To know which option is not true, we shall fine a relationship between acceleration (a), velocity (v), time (t) and radius (r). This is illustrated below:

Acceleration can simply be defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as shown below:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

a = Δv / t ..... (1)

But

Δv = v₂ – v₁

Substitute the value of Δv into equation (1)

a = Δv / t

a = v₂ – v₁ / t ....... (2)

From equation (1), make Δv the subject of the equation.

a = Δv / t

Cross multiply

Δv = at .... (3)

From equation (1), make t the subject of the equation.

a = Δv / t

Cross multiply

at = Δv

Divide both side by a

t = Δv /a ...... (4)

From circular motion, centripetal's force is given by:

F = mv²/r

F = ma꜀

Therefore,

ma꜀ = mv²/r

Cancel out m

a꜀ = v²/r

SUMMARY:

a = Δv / t

a = v₂ – v₁ / t

Δv = at

t = Δv /a

a꜀ = v²/r

Considering the options given in question above, t = Δa / v is not a true statement.
