How would you calculated the distance travelled by the car using its velocity-time graph

Physics

MA_775_DIABLO [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Measure the area under the graph.

Explanation:

To calculate the distance traveled by a car (or anything) using a velocity-time graph, just measure the area under the graph! This is super easy. :)

I will use the graph below as an example. If you needed to find the distance traveled from 4 seconds to 10 seconds, you would just find the area under those two points. The dark blue is the area we need to find the area of.

The area of a rectangle is a A = bh

A = bh

A = (6 s)(8 m/s)

A = 48 meters

If you wanted to find the area from 0 seconds to 4 seconds, you would find the area of the light blue triangle.

A = 1/2bh

A = 1/2(4 s)(8 m/s)

A = 16 meters

If you wanted to find the area from 0 seconds to 10 seconds, you would just add these two areas!

A1 + A2

48 meters + 16 meters = 64 meters

I really hope this helped! :)

Difference between work done against gravity and friction​
mario62 [17]
Mark Brainliest please


Friction is a nonconservative force. Therefore work done against friction cannot be stored as potential energy and later converted back to kinetic the way work against gravity can.

Gravity always pulls objects such as a desk, book or person down. Thus, when you jump, gravity causes you to land on the ground. Friction, however, doesn't pull objects down. ... Instead friction occurs when something like a machine or individual pulls a sliding object in the opposite direction of another object.


Friction and gravity exist in every aspect of a person’s life. For example, almost every movement you make, such as walking and running, involves friction. When you throw a ball up, gravity causes the ball to fall down. A person sliding a book across a table creates friction. Nevertheless, differences between gravity and friction also exist. Force affects gravity and friction in different ways.

An alternative to CFL bulbs and incandescent bulbs are light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs. A 16-W LED bulb can replace a 100-W inc
Yanka [14]

Answer:

LED bulb = 0.145 A

Incandescent bulb = 0.909 A

CFL bulb = 0.218 A

Explanation:

Given:

Power rating of LED bulb (P₁) = 16 W

Power rating of incandescent bulb (P₂) = 100 W

Power rating of CFL bulb (P₃) = 24 W

Terminal voltage across the circuit (V) = 110 V

We know that, power is related to terminal voltage and current drawn as:

P=VI

Express this in terms of 'I'. This gives,

I=\frac{P}{V}

Now, calculate the current drawn in each bulb using their respective values.

For LED bulb, P_1=16\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_1=\frac{16\ W}{110\ V}=0.145\ A

For incandescent bulb, P_2=100\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_2=\frac{100\ W}{110\ V}=0.909\ A

For CFL bulb, P_3=24\ W, V=110\ V

So, current drawn is given as:

I_3=\frac{24\ W}{110\ V}=0.218\ A

Therefore, the currents drawn through LED bulb, incandescent bulb and CFL bulb are 0.145 A, 0.909 A and 0.218 A respectively.

A metal object with a mass of 19g is heated to 96c, then transferred to a calorimeter containg 75g of water at 18c. the water an
avanturin [10]

Let us say that Cp is the specific heat of the metal object. Then we do a heat balance (heat lost by metal = heat gained by water):

- 19g * Cp * (22degC – 96degC) = 75g * 4.184J/g degC * (22degC – 18degC)

How much work (in J) is done against the gravitational force on a 3.9 kg briefcase when it is carried from the ground floor to t
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

W = 14523.6 J

Explanation:

Given,

Mass = 3.9 Kg

Vertical height , h = 380 m

Work done against gravitational force

W = m g h

g is acceleration due to gravity

W = 3.9 x 9.8 x 380

W = 14523.6 J

Hence, the work done by the gravitational force is equal to W = 14523.6 J
