Answer:

The work done on the wagon is 37 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

The force applied by Charlie to the right, F = 37.2 N

The force applied by Sara to the left, F' = 22.4 N

We need to find the work done on the wagon after it has moved 2.50 meters to the right. The net force acting on the wagon is :

F_n=F-F'

F_n=37.2-22.4

F_n=14.8\ N

Work done on the wagon is given by the product of net force and displacement. It is given by :

W=F_n\times d

W=14.8\ N\times 2.5\ m

W = 37 Joules

So, the work done on the wagon is 37 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

Rightwards force, F1 = 37.2 N

Leftwards force, F2 = 22.4 N

distance, d = 2.5 m

Net force, F = F1 - F2

F = 37.2 - 22.4

F = 14.8 N rightwards

Work done, W = force x distance

W = 14.8 x 2.5

W = 37 J

Mkey [24]
During the first phase of acceleration we have:
v o = 4 m/s;  t = 8 s; v = 13 m/s, a = ?
v = v o + a * t
13 m/s = 4 m / s + a * 8 s
a * 8 s = 9 m/s
a = 9 m/s : 8 s
a = 1.125 m/s²
The final speed:
v = ?;  v o = 13 m/s; a = 1.125 m/s² ;  t = 16 s
v = v o + a * t
v = 13 m/s + 1.125 m/s² * 16 s
v = 13 m/s + 18 m/s = 31 m/s

Starting at 1.0 m/s, a cheetah runs with a constant acceleration for 4.8 s reaching a speed of 28 m/s. What is the acceleration
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

c.5.6m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial velocity of cheetah,u=1 m/s

Time taken by cheetah =4.8 s

Final velocity of cheetah,v=28 m/s

We have to find the acceleration of this cheetah.

We know that

Acceleration,a=\frac{v-u}{t}

Where v=Final velocity of object

u=Initial velocity of object

t=Time taken by object

Using the formula

Then, we get

Acceleration, a=\frac{28-1}{4.8}=\frac{27}{4.8} m/s^2

Acceleration=a=5.6 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of cheetah=5.6m/s^2

Answer:

1. F and G.

2. D

3. A and E.

4. B

5. C

Explanation:

1. Acceleration: An increase in a body's velocity. An increase in a body's speed.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

2. Kinematics: a study of moving bodies i.e physical objects in motion.

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

3. Inertia: A tendency of a body to keep moving. A state of balance of forces on a body and the body remains either at rest or in uniform motion.

Inertia can be defined as the tendency of an object or a body to continue in its state of motion or remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

In physics, Sir Isaac Newton's First Law of Motion is known as Law of Inertia and it states that, an object or a physical body in motion will continue in its state of motion at continuous velocity (the same speed and direction) or, if at rest, will remain at rest unless acted upon by an external force.

4. Velocity: Fastness and direction of a body.

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

5. Reaction: an opposite force.

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move, etc.
