Part A: 
Acceleration can be calculated by dividing the difference of the initial and final velocities by the given time. That is,
             a = (Vf - Vi) / t
where a is acceleration,
Vf is final velocity,
Vi is initial velocity, and
t is time

Substituting,
            a = (9 m/s - 0 m/s) / 3 s = 3 m/s²
<em>ANSWER: 3 m/s²</em>

Part B: 
From Newton's second law of motion, the net force is equal to the product of the mass and acceleration,
               F = m x a
where F is force,
m is mass, and 
a is acceleration

Substituting,
              F = (80 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 240 kg m/s² = 240 N

<em>ANSWER: 240 N </em>

Part C: 
The distance that the sprinter travel is calculated through the equation,
         d = V₀t + 0.5at²

Substituting,
            d = (0 m/s)(3 s) + 0.5(3 m/s²)(3 s)²
             d = 13.5 m

<em>ANSWER: d = 13.5 m</em>

Answer:

An active pendulum has the most kinetic energy at the lowest point of its swing when the weight is moving fastest.

Explanation:

Two charges, each q, are separated by a distance r, and exert mutual attractive forces of F on each other. If both charges becom
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

F = ⅔ F₀

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Coulomb's law

         F = k q₁q₂ / r²

let's use the subscript "o" for the initial conditions

          F₀ = k q² / r²

now the charge changes q₁ = q₂ = 2q and the new distance is r = 3 r

       

we substitute

          F = k 4q² / 9 r²

          F = k q² r² 4/9

          F = ⅔ F₀

To lift a load of 100 kg a distance of 1 m an effort of 25 kg must be applied over an inclined plane of length 4 m. What must be
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Work = force * distance.
We must produce twice as much energy as we are lifting the weight twice as high.
But we are not increasing the force so we must increase the length of the ramp ( distance ) instead.
The new length will be twice as great as the previous length.
So 8 metres is required. 


25 kg * 8 m = work = 100 kg * 2 m
