v₀ = initial speed of the object = 8 meter/second
v = final speed of the object = 16 meter/second
t = time taken to increase the speed = 10 seconds
d = distance traveled by the object in the given time duration = ?
using the kinematics equation
d = (v + v₀) t/2
inserting the above values in the above equation
d = (16 + 8) (10)/2
d = 120 meter
Answer:
0.8 seconds
Explanation:
F=ma
Let x be the seconds the force is applied.
m = 20kg
F = 50 Newtons (kg*m/sec^2)
acceleration, a, is provided for x seconds to increase the speed from 1 m/s to 3 m/s, an increase of 2m/s
Let's calculate the acceleration of the cart:
F=ma
(50 kg*m/s^2) = (20kg)*a
a = 2.5 m/s^2
---
The acceleration is 2.5 m/s^2. The cart increases speed by 2.5 m/s every second.
We want the number of seconds it takes to add 2.0 m/sec to the speed:
(2.5 m/s^2)*x = 2.0 m/s
x = (2.0/2.5) sec
x = 0.8 seconds
Answer:
Electric potential energy at the negative terminal: 
Explanation:
When a particle with charge 
travels across a potential difference 
, then its change in electric potential energy is
In this problem, we know that:
The particle is an electron, so its charge is
We also know that the positive terminal is at potential
While the negative terminal is at potential
Therefore, the potential difference (final minus initial) is
So, the change in potential energy of the electron is
This means that the electron when it is at the negative terminal has of energy more than when it is at the positive terminal.
Since the potential at the positive terminal is 0, this means that the electric potential energy of the electron at the negative end is
