Answer:

<u>Option (D) : - 3 m/s^2</u>

Explanation:

Acceleration = Slope of v-t graph

= 18/6

= - 3 m/s^2 (-ive since the car is decelerating )

Answer:

A) The acceleration is zero

<em>B) The total distance is 112 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Velocity vs Time Graph</u>

It shows the behavior of the velocity as time increases. If the velocity increases, then the acceleration is positive, if the velocity decreases, the acceleration is negative, and if the velocity is constant, then the acceleration is zero.

The graph shows a horizontal line between points A and B. It means the velocity didn't change in that interval. Thus the acceleration in that zone is zero.

A. To calculate the acceleration, we use the formula:

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_2-v_1}{t_2-t_1}

Let's pick the extremes of the region AB: (0,8) and (12,8). The acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{8-8}{12-0}=0

This confirms the previous conclusion.

B. The distance covered by the body can be calculated as the area behind the graph. Since the velocity behaves differently after t=12 s, we'll split the total area into a rectangle and a triangle.

Area of rectangle= base*height=12 s * 8 m/s = 96 m

Area of triangle= base*height/2 = 4 s * 8 m/s /2= 16 m

The total distance is: 96 m + 16 m = 112 m

Answer: unspecific

Explanation:

you should always be specific with your goals, say someones goal is to make it to state for swimming, he/she should be specific to the event in which they want to go to state in.

I need the solution to this
posledela

Answer:

He could jump 2.6 meters high.

Explanation:

Jumping a height of 1.3m requires a certain initial velocity v_0. It turns out that this scenario can be turned into an equivalent: if a person is dropped from a height of 1.3m in free fall, his velocity right before landing on the ground will be v_0. To answer this equivalent question, we use the kinematic equation:

v_0 = \sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2\cdot 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}\cdot 1.3m}=5.0\frac{m}{s}

With this result, we turn back to the original question on Earth: the person needs an initial velocity of 5 m/s to jump 1.3m high, on the Earth.

Now let's go to the other planet. It's smaller, half the radius, and its meadows are distinctly greener. Since its density is the same as one of the Earth, only its radius is half, we can argue that the gravitational acceleration g will be <em>half</em> of that of the Earth (you can verify this is true by writing down the Newton's formula for gravity, use volume of the sphere times density instead of the mass of the Earth, then see what happens to g when halving the radius). So, the question now becomes: from which height should the person be dropped in free fall so that his landing speed is 5 m/s ? Again, the kinematic equation comes in handy:

v_0^2 = 2g_{1/2}h\implies \\h = \frac{v_0^2}{2g_{1/2}}=\frac{25\frac{m^2}{s^2}}{2\cdot 4.9\frac{m}{s^2}}=2.6m

This results tells you, that on the planet X, which just half the radius of the Earth, a person will jump up to the height of 2.6 meters with same effort as on the Earth. This is exactly twice the height he jumps on Earth. It now all makes sense.

Which of the following are inertial reference frames? A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road. B. A car dr
Aloiza [94]

Answers:

A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road.

B. A car driving at steady speed up a 10∘ incline.

Explanation:

An object is said to be in an inertial reference frame if the net force acting on the object is zero. According to Newton's second law, this also means that the acceleration of the object is also zero:

F=ma

Since F=0, a=0 as well.

Let's now analyze each case.

A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road. --> YES: this is an inertial reference frame, because the car is keeping a constant speed and a constant direction, so its velocity is not changing, and its acceleration is zero.

B. A car driving at steady speed up a 10∘ incline. --> YES: this is an inertial reference frame, because the car is keeping a constant speed and a constant direction, so its velocity is not changing, and its acceleration is zero.

C. A car speeding up after leaving a stop sign. --> NO: this is not an intertial reference frame, because the car is speeding up, so it is accelerating.

D. A car driving at steady speed around a curve. --> NO: this is not an inertial reference frame, because the car is changing direction, therefore its velocity is changing and so the car is accelerating.

So the only two choices which are correct are A and B.

A 2.50-m segment of wire carries 1000 A current and feels a 4.00-N repulsive force from a parallel wire 5.00 cm away. What is th
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The current is  I_b  =  400 \ A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  length of the segment is  l  =  2.50  \  m

     The current is  I_a  =  1000 \ A

     The force felt is  F  =  4.0 \  N

        The distance of the second wire is  d =  5.0 \ cm  = 0.05 \  m

Generally the current on the second wire is mathematically represented as

        I_b  =  \frac{2 \pi * r * F }{ l *  \mu_o  *  I_a }

Here  \mu_o is the permeability of free space with value  \mu_o =  4 \pi * 10^{-7} \ N/A^2

=>      I_b  =  \frac{2 * 3.142  *  0.05 *  4 }{ 2.50  *  4\pi *10^{-7}  * 1000 }

=>      I_b  =  400 \ A
