At t= 10 s, a particle is moving from left to right with a speed of 5.0 m/s. At t=20 s, the particle is moving right to left wit

h a speed of 8.0 m/s. Assuming the particle's acceleration is constant, determine (a) its acceleration,
(b)its initial velocity, and
(c) the instant when its velocity is zero.

Answer

given,

at time t = 10 s  moving from left to right speed of particle = 5 m/s

at t = 20 s  moving from right to left speed of particle is = 8 m/s

a) acceleration

      a = \dfrac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}

      a = \dfrac{-8-(5)}{20-10}

            a = -1.3 m/s²

b) using equation of motion

      v = u + at

      5 = u - 1.3 × 10

      u = 5 + 13

      u = 18 m/s

c) v = u + at

   0  = 18 - 1.3t

  t = \dfrac{18}{1.30}

     t = 13.85 s

20-kilogram canoe is floating downriver at 2 m/s. what’s the kinetic energy?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

40J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv^2

Where m = mass and

v = velocity

Given mass = 20kg

v = 2m/s

K.E = 1/2 x 20 x2^2

= 1/2 x 20 x 2 x 2

= 80/2

= 40J

What is the frequency of a microwave with a wavelength of 3.52 mm?
AlekseyPX

As per the question the wavelength of the microwave is given as 3.52 mm.

we are asked to calculate the frequency of the wave.

we know that microwave is a electromagnetic wave.

As per Clark Maxwell's electromagnetic theory ,every electromagnetic wave moves with a velocity equal to the velocity of light in vacuum and that is equal to 3×10^8 m/s.

From the equation of the wave,we know that velocity of wave is the product of frequency and wavelength.

Mathematically   wave velocity v=f*\lambda   where f is the frequency of the wave and \lambda is the wavelength.

As per the question \lambda=3.52 mm

                                               = 3.52*10^{-3} m

                       Here  v=c=3*10^{8} m/s

Hence frequency of the wave f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

                                                       =\frac{3*10^{8} }{3.52*10^{-3} } s^{-1}

                                                        =0.852272727272*10^{11} Hz

Here Hertz [Hz] is the unit of frequency.

You can describe the _______________ of an object by saying it is moving in a straight line or is curved around another object.
velikii [3]

Answer:

You can describe the<u> motion </u>of an object by saying it is moving in a straight line or is curved around another object. You can also describe where an object is by its <u> position </u> in relation to another object. The second object acts as a<u> reference</u> point. When an object changes position, you know it has motion. Motion can also be described by finding an object's <u>speed  </u>or how fast or slow it moves in a certain amount of time. In addition, you can describe the object's speed AND direction together. This is called <u>velocity</u>

Explanation:

In the given answer-

<u>Motion</u> is defined as - the change in the movement or position of any object  or body.

<u>Position</u> is said to be a place or somewhere or a location where any object or body is particularly placed/located or put on.

<u>Reference poin</u>t is a fixed point with regards to which any object or body changes its position. It is also called reference origin.

<u>Speed</u> is defined as the rate of any object covering certain distances. It is a scaler quantity (quantity which depends upon only magnitude).

<u>Velocity</u> is defined as the rate of speed per unit time. It is a vector quantity (quantity depending upon both magnitude and direction ).

In a $100$ meter track event, Alice runs at a constant speed and crosses the finish line $5$ seconds before Beatrice does. If it
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

10s

Explanation:

If it took Beatrice 25 seconds to complete the race

Distance = 100 meter

Beatrice speed = 100/25

                          = 4m/s

If Alice runs at a constant speed and crosses the finish line $5$ seconds, she must have completed the race in 20s (25 -5).

Her speed where constant

= 100/20

= 5 m/s

It would take Alice

= 50/5

= 10s

It would take Alice 10s to run $50$ meters.
