The car's average acceleration would be 1.25m/s^2 or 1.25meters/second/second. That looks to be the fourth one you've listed.

Answer:

Its acceleration is 1.25 meters/second2 (1.25 m/s^2 )

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time:

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

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

In this problem, the initial velocity of the car is zero: u=0. The final velocity is v=5 m/s, and the time taken is t=4 s, so the acceleration is

a=\frac{v-u}{t}=\frac{5 m/s-0}{4 s}=1.25 m/s^2

The angle θ is slowly increased. Write an expression for the angle at which the block begins to move in terms of μs.
Reika [66]

Answer:

tan \theta = \mu_s

Explanation:

An object is at rest along a slope if the net force acting on it is zero. The equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the slope is:

mg sin \theta - \mu_s R =0 (1)

where

mg sin \theta is the component of the weight parallel to the slope, with m being the mass of the object, g the acceleration of gravity, \theta the angle of the slope

\mu_s R is the frictional force, with \mu_s being the coefficient of friction and R the normal reaction of the incline

The equation of the forces along the direction perpendicular to the slope is

R-mg cos \theta = 0

where

R is the normal reaction

mg cos \theta is the component of the weight perpendicular to the slope

Solving for R,

R=mg cos \theta

And substituting into (1)

mg sin \theta - \mu_s mg cos \theta = 0

Re-arranging the equation,

sin \theta = \mu_s cos \theta\\\rightarrow tan \theta = \mu_s

This the condition at which the equilibrium holds: when the tangent of the angle becomes larger than the value of \mu_s, the force of friction is no longer able to balance the component of the weight parallel to the slope, and so the object starts sliding down.

Which of the following is a result of reduced levels of red blood cells and elevated levels of white blood cells in the body?
marishachu [46]
There are no following but less red blood cells would make you tired because you can carry as much oxygen and more white blood cells could cause infection if the start attacking you. It could also give you bone marrow cancer if there are too many white blood cells.

A little girl kicks a soccer ball. It goes 10 feet and comes back to her. How is this possible?
VARVARA [1.3K]
Kicks it up into the air and it falls back down to her, or it could be it was kicked and bounced off another surface like a wall and the force returns it to her.

As a roller coaster goes downhill A) kinetic energy is converted into potential energy. B) potential energy is converted into ki
lorasvet [3.4K]
Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Firstly, the question says nothing about the use of electricity, an electric current, or any sort of voltage, so any answer about electrical energy is irrelevant. Secondly, the key is to understand what potential and kinetic energy mean. Potential energy is the energy that an object has when it is at rest. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion; it is potential energy that has been converted to energy used to do movements, so when a roller coaster falls, its potential energy at the top is converted to kinetic energy as it rolls down.
