Answer:

20.96 m/s^2 (or 21)

Explanation:

Using the formula (final velocity - initial velocity)/time = acceleration, we can plug in values and manipulate the problem to give us the answer.

At first, we know a car is going 8 m/s, that is its initial velocity.

Then, we know the acceleration, which is 1.8 m/s/s

We also know the time, 7.2 second.

Plugging all of these values in shows us that we need to solve for final velocity. We can do so by manipulating the formula.

(final velocity - initial velocity) = time * acceleration

final velocity = time*acceleration + initial velocity

After plugging the found values in, we get 20.96 m/s/s, or 21 m/s

When water freezes, its volume increases by 9.05% (that is, equation). What force per unit area is water capable of exerting on

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

1.991 × 10^(8) N/m²

Explanation:

We are told that its volume increases by 9.05%.

Thus; (ΔV/V_o) = 9.05% = 0.0905

To find the force per unit area which is also pressure, we will use bulk modulus formula;

B = Δp(V_o/ΔV)

Making Δp the subject gives;

Δp = B(ΔV/V_o)

Now, B is bulk modulus of water with a value of 2.2 × 10^(9) N/m²

Thus;

Δp = 2.2 × 10^(9)[0.0905]

Δp = 1.991 × 10^(8) N/m²

What are two ways that machines can change the way that work is done?

algol [13]

Machines makes work easier by increasing the amount of force that is applied, and changing the direction in which the force is applied !! Hope it helped (p.s. I had this same question)

Using energy considerations, calculate the average force (in N) a 67.0 kg sprinter exerts backward on the track to accelerate fr

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$F_{sprinter}=110.4N$

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=67.0 kg

Final Speed vf=8.00 m/s

Initial Speed vi=2.00 m/s

Distance d=25.0 m

Force F=30.0 N

From work-energy theorem we know that the work done equals the change in kinetic energy

W=ΔK=Kf-Ki=1/2mvf²-1/2mvi²

And

$W=F_{total}.d$

$W=1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2\\F_{total}=\frac{1/2mv_{f}^2-1/2mv_{i}^2}{d} \\F_{total}=\frac{1/2(67.0kg)(8.00m/s)^2-1/2(67.0kg)(2.00m/s)^2}{25.0m} \\F_{total}=80.4N$

and we know that the force the sprinter exerted Fsprinter the force of the headwind Fwind=30.0N

$F_{sprinter}=F_{total}+F_{wind}\\F_{sprinter}=80.4N+30N\\F_{sprinter}=110.4N$

Differentiate scalar & vector quantity?

Keith_Richards [23]

$\textbf{Hello Friend}$

Scalar Quantity :-

→ These are the quantities with magnitude only . These quantities doesn't have to be mentioned with direction

eg.)=> Mass , Temprature .

Vector Quantity :-

→ These quantities are described with both Magnitude and Direction . These quantities follow special type of algebra called Vector algebra .

eg.)=> Force , Displacement
