Answer:
20.96 m/s^2 (or 21)
Explanation:
Using the formula (final velocity - initial velocity)/time = acceleration, we can plug in values and manipulate the problem to give us the answer.
At first, we know a car is going 8 m/s, that is its initial velocity.
Then, we know the acceleration, which is 1.8 m/s/s
We also know the time, 7.2 second.
Plugging all of these values in shows us that we need to solve for final velocity. We can do so by manipulating the formula.
(final velocity - initial velocity) = time * acceleration
final velocity = time*acceleration + initial velocity
After plugging the found values in, we get 20.96 m/s/s, or 21 m/s
(a) The spring stiffness constant of the spring is 18,392 N/m.
(b) The time the car was in contact with the spring before it bounces off in the opposite direction is 0.23 s.
<h3>Kinetic energy of the car</h3>
The kinetic energy of the car is calculated as follows;
K.E = ¹/₂mv²
K.E = ¹/₂ x 950 x 22²
K.E = 229,900 J
<h3>Stiffness constant of the spring</h3>
The stiffness constant of the spring is calculated as follows;
K.E = U = ¹/₂kx²
k = 2U/x²
k = (2 x 229,900)/(5)²
k = 18,392 N/m
<h3>Force exerted on the spring</h3>
F = kx
F = 18,392 x 5
F = 91,960 N
<h3>Time of impact</h3>
F = mv/t
t = mv/F
t = (950 x 22)/(91960)
t = 0.23 s

Yes, <span> the moon fall partly into earth's shadow when it is in its full size</span>
<span>The car would have traveled exactly one-half of the circumference of the track, since it would have gone from one extreme point to its opposite extreme point. This would be equal to (3.5 / 2), or 1.75 km. The northernmost point would be 1.75km away from the southernmost point.</span>
Answer:
3.2 m/s²
Explanation:
Acceleration can be calculated as:
v = u + at (where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time)
25 m/s = 9 m/s + a(5 s) (a is unknown)
16 m/s = a(5 s)
a = 3.2 m/s²
We assume that this is a uniform acceleration (meaning that the velocity increases at an equal rate for those 5 seconds).
