Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity u = 54 km/h = 15 m/s

final velocity v = 18 km/h = 5 m/s

distance s = 10 m

1. v^2 = u^2 + 2as

5^2 = 15^2 + 2a × 10

25 = 225 + 20a

25 - 225 = 20a

20 a = -200

a = -200/2

a = -100m/s^2

∴Deacceleration = -100m/s^2

2. v = u + at

5 = 15 -100t

5-15 = -100t

-10 = -100t

t = 100 / 10

∴t = 10 sec

Total distance covered by the car 10 m

To me, the hardest part of this whole thing is keeping the units straight. We're starting out with information given to us in kilometers, hours, and meters, and we have to come up with answers in m/s² , seconds, and meters.

When I worked this problem, I jumped right in without thinking, and I immediately got bogged down when I had to go off to the side and convert some units.

Now I know better. THIS time, before we get all tangled up trying to solve anything, let's get clever and change everything to m/s right now !

(54 km/hour) · (1,000m/km) · (1 hour/3600 sec) = 15 meters/second

(18 km/hour) · (1,000 m/km) · (1 hour/3600 sec) = 5 meters/second

NOW I'll betcha it's gonna be about 70% faster and easier !

i). Acceleration = (change in speed / time for the change)

We know the distance, but not the time. I know there's a formula for it, but I've learned so many formulas during my lifetime that I can't remember ALL of them. So I just memorize some of them, and I work things out from the formulas that I know. Here's how I do time:)

Average speed during the given slow-down = (1/2)·(15+5) = 10 m/s

Distance covered during the given slow-down = 10 m.

Time = (distance) / (average speed) = (10m) / (10 m/s) = 1 second

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Acceleration = (5 m/s - 15 m/s) / (1 second)

Acceleration = (-10 m/s) / (1 second)

Acceleration = -10 m/s² (or 'Deceleration' = 10 m/s² )

_____________________________________________

For parts ii). and iii)., there's a big shift in the question.

It only gave you the slow-down from 54 to 18 km/hr for the purpose of calculating the deceleration. NOW, for the rest of the answers, it's talking about a complete stop ... 0 m/s .

____________________________________________

ii). Time required to stop = (initial speed) / (deceleration)

Time to stop from 54 km/hr = (15 m/s) / (10 m/s²)

Time to stop = 1.5 seconds

iii). Distance covered = (average speed) · (time to stop)

Distance covered = (7.5 m/s) · (1.5 sec)

Distance covered = 11.25 meters

OR ... use the official formula:

Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time² )

Distance = (1/2) · (10 m/s²) · (1.5 sec)²

Distance = 11.25 meters yay !

What is a crystal as applied in physics

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - A matter that has an ordered arrangement of atoms, molecules, or ions.

Explanation:

In physics, a crystal is a type of solid matter in which a highly arranged molecule or atoms present to form a lattice that extended in all directions. It is a lightweight clear solid which is normally is colorless.

It can be cubic, hexagonal, triclinic, monoclinic, orthorhombic, tetragonal, and trigonal that are ordered arrangments. Its internal symmetry is visible to its surface.

You throw a rock horizontally out of a 7th story window. You time that it takes 3.7 seconds to hit the ground, and measure that

Nady [450]

Since we are only looking at the vertical height, we can use the free fall equation to find the height:
h = 0.5*g*t^2, where h is height in m, g is acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2), and t is time in seconds
h = 0.5*(9.81 m/s^2)*(3.7 s)^2
h = 67.15 m
Therefore, the 7th floor window is 67.15 m above ground level.

One mole of an ideal gas expands isothermally from 0.01 m3 to 0.05 m3. The final pressure of gas is 1.2 atm. [15 Marks] determin

erik [133]

Answer:

Initial pressure = 6 atm. Work = 0.144 J

Explanation:

You need to know the equation P1*V1=P2*V2, where P1 is the initial pressure, V1 is the initial volume, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume respectively. So you can rearrange the terms and find that (1.2*0.05)/(0.01) = initial pressure = 6 atm. The work done by the system can be obtained calculating the are under the curve, so it is 0.144J

On the asteroid Cere, the acceleration due to gravity is about 0.27 m/s^2. How long would it take a ball to fall to the ground i

KiRa [710]

Answer:

F. 25.82 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 90 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 0.27 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

90 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (0.27 m/s²) t²

t = 25.82 s

A 4kg book sits on a table and your pet hamster puts his front paws on the book and pushes down with a force of 3N. What is the

Natali [406]

There are three forces acting on the book.
1. Force due to gravity
2. Force exerted downward by the hamster
3. Normal Force in reaction to the downward forces

Since the book is not moving, the net force is zero. The summation of all forces must be zero. Then we could find the normal force which is unknown (denoted as x).

∑F = -(4 kg)(9.81 m/s2) - 3 N + x =0
∑F = -39.24 N - 3N + x =0
x = 42 N

Therefore, the normal force is 42 N.
