a car accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 65 km/h (18 m/s) in 12s. Find the distance the car travels during this time?

Vinil7 [7]3 years ago

The car's speed was zero at the beginning of the 12 seconds,
and 18 m/s at the end of it.  Since the acceleration was 'uniform'
during that time, the car's average speed was (1/2)(0 + 18) = 9 m/s.

12 seconds at an average speed of 9 m/s  ==>  (12 x 9) = 108 meters .

==========================================

That's the way I like to brain it out.  If you prefer to use the formula,
the first problem you run into is:  You need to remember the formula !

The formula is        D = 1/2 a T²

                   Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (time in seconds)²

             Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
                                  =        (18 m/s)            /        (12 sec)
                                  =                      1.5 m/s² .

                  Distance  =  (1/2 x 1.5 m/s²) x (12 sec)²
                                  =       (0.75 m/s²)  x  (144 sec²)  =  108 meters .

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

Diffraction of sound wavelengths.

Explanation:

Diffraction-A wave is able to bend around a corner due to the effects of diffraction. sound aves are capable of bending around corners in the same magnitude as it's wavelength making it possible to hear sounds around corners.

The mass of the earth is 5.98 1024 kg, the mass of the moon is 7.36 1022 kg, and the distance between the centers of the earth a
Setler [38]

Answer:

 x_{cm} = 4.644 10⁶ m

Explanation:

The center of mass is given by the equation

         x_{cm} = 1 / M_{total}  ∑ x_{i}  m_{i}

Where M_{total} is the total masses of the system, x_{i} is the distance between the particles and m_{i} is the masses of each body

Let's apply this equation to our problem

        M = Me + m

        M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.36 10²²

        M = 605.36 10²² kg

Let's locate a reference system located in the center of the Earth

Let's calculate

       x_{cm} = 1 / 605.36 10²²   [Me 0 + 7.36 10²² 3.82 10⁸]

       x_{cm} = 4.644 10⁶ m

The accepted value for the density of iron is 7.87 g/cm3. a student records the mass of a 20.00 cm3 block of iron as 153.8 grams
dangina [55]
The density of an object can be calculated using the formula Density = Mass/Volume.

Experimental Density:

Density = 153.8g / 20.00 cm^3
Density = 7.69g/cm^3

Percent error equation:

% Error = | Theoretical Value - Experimental Value|/Theoretical Value * 100
% Error = | 7.87g/cm^3 - 7.69g/cm^3|/7.87g/cm^3 * 100
% Error = 2.29%

Therefore a is the correct answer.

If a Styrofoam ball and a steel ball are the exact same size & shape,which has more mass?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Steel

Explanation:

Mass is density times volume.

m = ρV

Since they have the same size and shape, they have the same volume.

Steel has a higher density than Styrofoam, so at the same volume, the steel ball will have more mass.
