A body is accelerated continuously. What is the form of the graph?

Inga [223]3 years ago

That depends on what quantity is graphed.

It also depends on what kind of acceleration is taking place ...
continuous change of speed or continuous change of direction.

-- If the graph shows speed vs time, and the acceleration is a change
in speed, then the graph is a connected series of straight-line pieces. 
Each straight piece slopes up if speed is increasing, or down if speed
is decreasing.

-- If the graph shows speed vs time, and the acceleration is a change in
direction only, then the graph is a straight horizontal line, since speed is
constant.

-- If the graph shows direction vs time, and the acceleration is a change
in speed only, then the graph is a straight horizontal line, since direction
is constant.

-- If the graph shows direction vs time, and the acceleration is a change
in direction, then the graph is a connected series of pieces of line. 
Each piece may be straight if the direction is changing at a constant rate,
or curved if the direction is changing at a rate which grows or shrinks. 
Each piece may slope up if the angle that defines the direction is growing,
or may slope down if the angle that defines the direction is decreasing.

-- If the graph shows distance vs time, and the acceleration is a
change in speed, then the graph is a connected series of pieces
of curves.  Each piece curves up if speed is increasing, or down if
speed is decreasing.

-- If the graph shows distance vs time, and the acceleration is a change
in direction only, then the graph is a straight line sloping up, since speed
is constant.

Sonbull [250]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Nathan drops marbles down two ramps that have different lengths. It takes the marbles 10 seconds to reach the bottom of both ramps.Which statement is TRUE?

answer choices

Marble 1 has a faster speed than Marble 2.

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Both the marbles travel at the same speed.

There is not enough data to compare the speeds of marbles.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

Marble 2 has a faster speed than Marble 1.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The speed is defined as the distance covered per unit time. Here in the question, 2 balls cover equal distances in same time.

Time taken by the ball = 10 seconds.

Distance covered by 1st ball = 20 cm.

Distance covered by 2nd ball = 3cm.

So speed of the 1st ball = 2cm/sec.

Speed of the 2nd ball = 3 cm /sec.

So,it's very much evident that speed of 2nd Marble is much higher than the speed of the 1st marble.

16x^2y^2-25a^2b^2<br>factorize the expression​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

(4xy+5ab)(4xy-5ab)

Explanation:

16x^{2}y^{2}-25a^{2}b^{2}

4^2 is 16 and 5^2 is 25,

Also, (x-a)(x+a) = x^2-a^2

So, this factorized is:

(4xy+5ab)(4xy-5ab)

Hope this helps!

A parallel-plate capacitor has area A and plate separation d, and it is charged to voltage V. Use the formulas from the problem
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

U = (ε0AV^2) / 2d

Explanation:

Where C= capacitance of the capacitor

ε0= permittivity of free space

A= cross sectional area of plates

d= distance between the plates

V= potential difference

First, the capacitance of a capacitor is obtained by:

C = ε0A/d.

Starting at the formula , U= (CV^2)/2. Formula for energy stored in a capacitor

Substitute in for C:

U = (ε0A/d) * V^2 / 2

Hence:

U = (ε0AV^2) / 2d

Calculate the air pressure in the pressurized tank, if h1 = 0. 18 m, h2 = 0. 2m and h3 = 0. 25m. The density of the mercury, wat
fomenos

The air pressure in the pressurized tank will be 24014.88 N/m²,196.2 N/m²,2084.625  N/m².

<h3 /><h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

Pressure is found as the product of the density,acceleraton due to gravity and the height.

P₁=ρ₁gh₁

P₁=13,600 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×0.18 m

P₁=24014.88 N/m²

P₂=ρ₂gh₂

P₂= 1000 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×00.2 m

P₂=196.2 N/m²

P₃=ρ₃gh₃

P₃=850 kg/m³×9.81 (m/s²)×0.25

P₃=2084.625  N/m²

Hence,the air pressure in the pressurized tank will be 24014.88 N/m²,196.2 N/m²,2084.625  N/m².
