Her change in speed is (4 m/s - 8 m/s) = -4 m/s.

Her acceleration is

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

= ( -4 m/s ) / (2 sec)

= -2 m/s² .

You will have to use this formula:
v = vo + a \times t

Final Velocity (V) = 4m/s
Initial Velocity (Vo) = 8m/s
Acceleration (a) = ? m/s^2
Time (t) = 2 secs

Then:

-> 4 = 8 + a x 2
-> 4 - 8 = 2a
-> -4 = 2a
-> a = -4/2
-> a = -2 m/s^2

Ps: It's value is negative because the she was in retrograde motion.

Answer: Her acceleration is -2 m/s^2.

A 250 kg flatcar 25 m long is moving with a speed of 3.0 m/s along horizontal frictionless rails. A 61 kg worker starts walking
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

x=31.09m

Explanation:

p1=p2

The momentum of flatcar and the momentum of the worker so

The velocity of the worker is:

m_{f}*v_{f}=m_{w}*v_{w}\\\\v_{f}=\frac{m_{f}*v_{f}}{m_{w}}\\v_{f}=\frac{61kg*3.0\frac{m}{s}}{250kg}\\v_{f}=0.732\frac{m}{s}

The total motion has a total velocity and is

Vt=v_{w}+v_{f}\\Vt=0.732\frac{m}{s}+3.0\frac{m}{s}\\Vt=3.732\frac{m}{s}

The time the worker take walking is

t=\frac{x}{v_{w}}\\t=\frac{25m}{3\frac{m}{s}}=8.33s

Now the total time and the total velocity determinate the motion of tha flatcar how far has moved

x=t*Vt\\x=8.33s*3.732\frac{m}{s} \\x=31.09m

An elevator accelerates upward at 1.2 m/s 2 . the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . what is the upward force exerted by the
Marysya12 [62]
We can find the force by using the following formula;
N = ma +  mg
Fa = ma = 76 x 1.2 = 91.2
Fg = mg = 76 x 9.8 = 744.8
N = 91.2 + 744.8 = 836
So, the force is 836 N.

If I have a picosecond laser how would that be expressed in terms of zeptoseconds? In terms of petaseconds?
kolbaska11 [484]
Picosecond = 10 ^ -12 seconds.
Zeptosecond = 10^ -18 seconsds
Petaseonds  =  10^15  seconds

To express Picoseconds into any of other two, you have to divide  10^-12 by the power index of the one in question

1Picosecond :   10^-12  /  10^-18 =    10^ (-12- 18) =  10^ (-12+18)= 10^6  zeptoseconds

1Picosecond :   10^-12  /  10^15 =    10^ (-12-15) =  10^-27  Petaseconds.

1Picosecond = 10^6  zeptoseconds

1Picosecond = 10^-27  Petaseconds

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]
jarptica [38.1K]

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.

             Speed  =  (original speed) + (gravity  x  falling time)

-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is

                         =       (0)            + (9.8 m/s²  x  3 sec)

                       Velocity  =  29.4 m/s downward .
