The negative sign on the acceleration is only a vector quantity that means the object is accelerating to the left. Hence, we can only focus on it magnitude which is 4 m/s^2. Acceleration is the change in velocity over time. The change in velocity must be 24 m/s - 0 m/s, if you want the object to stop. Therefore,
a = (v2 - v1)/t
4 = (24 - 0)t
t = 6 seconds
The object will stop after 6 seconds.
Answer:
Most of what we know about the interior of the Earth comes from the study of seismic waves from earthquakes. Seismic waves from large earthquakes pass throughout the Earth. These waves contain vital information about the internal structure of the Earth.
The total kinetic and potential energies
Limiting factors are resources or other factors in the environment that can lower the population growth rate. Competition for resources like food and space cause the growth rate to stop increasing, so the population levels off. This flat upper line on a growth curve is the carrying capacity.
