Answer: b the slope of a velocity vs. time graph

d. .a vector

Explanation: Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. Slope of the graph of any quantity plotted against time gives the rate of change of that quantity with respect to time. In case of velocity, the slope gives the rate of change of velocity with time which is acceleration.

Acceleration is a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction. and is measured in $ms^{-2}$

The change in displacement divided by the change in time gives velocity. Velocity is measured in m/s.

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, and velocity is the change in displacement over the change in time so the answer would be A.

A person jumps out a fourth-story window 14 m above a firefighter safety net. The survivor stretches the net 1.8 m before coming

Monica [59]

Answer:

The deceleration is $a = - 76.27 m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height above firefighter safety net is $H = 14 \ m$

The length by which the net is stretched is $s = 1.8 \ m$

From the law of energy conservation

$KE_T + PE_T = KE_B + PE_B$

Where $KE_T$ is the kinetic energy of the person before jumping which equal to zero(because to kinetic energy at maximum height )

and $PE_T$ is the potential energy of the before jumping which is mathematically represented at

$PE_T = mg H$

and $KE_B$ is the kinetic energy of the person just before landing on the safety net which is mathematically represented at

$KE_B = \frac{1}{2} m v^2$

and $PE_B$ is the potential energy of the person as he lands on the safety net which has a value of zero (because it is converted to kinetic energy )

So the above equation becomes

$mgH = \frac{1}{2} m v^2$

=> $v = \sqrt{2 gH }$

substituting values

$v = 16.57 m/s$

Applying the equation o motion

$v_f = v + 2 a s$

Now the final velocity is zero because the person comes to rest

$0 = 16.57 + 2 * a * 1.8$

$a = - \frac{16.57^2 }{2 * 1.8}$

$a = - 76.27 m/s^2$

If an astronaut had a mass of 30 kg on the moon what would his mass be on earth?

Novay_Z [31]

Explanation:

A one-kilogram mass is still a one-kilogram(as mass is an intrinsic property of the object) but the downward force due to gravity, and therefore it's weight, is only one-sixth of what the object would have on the Earth. So man of mass 180 pounds weights only about 30 pounds-force when visiting the moon

hope it help..... pls add me as brainlist.

Have a nice day

Where coastal rock is softer, waves erode the land faster

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Headlands and bays are created where there are bands of hard and soft rock which meet the coastline at right angles. Softer rock is eroded more quickly and erodes backwards to form bays (which may have beaches). The harder rocks are more resistant to erosion and jut out into the sea to form exposed headlands
