A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it rolls down a slope as it starts down the slope its speed is 4m/s but 3 seconds

later at the bottom of the slope its speed is 22m/s what is its average acceleration
Physics

Gwar [14]3 years ago

Answer:

The acceleration is 6 [m/s^2]

Explanation:

We can find the acceleration of the roller coaster using the kinematic equation for uniformly accelerated motion.

v_{f} =v_{i} + a*t\\where:\\v_{f} = final velocity = 22 [m/s]\\v_{i} = initial velocity = 4 [m/s]\\t = time = 3 [s]\\

Now replacing the values we have:

a=\frac{v_{f} - v_{i} }{t} \\a=\frac{22 - 4 }{3}\\a = 6 [m/s^{2} ]

givi [52]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

If you do B, the wagon slows down due to friction

If you do C, it would slow down the wagon by half

If you do D, it would slow it down, due to there being more weight but same force.

1. You serve a volleyball with a mass of 2.1kg. The ball leaves your
Darina [25.2K]

The kinetic energy is 945 joules.

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has as a result of motion. It is defined as the effort required to accelerate a mass-determined body from rest to the indicated velocity.

The speed of an object or particle, which is a scalar quantity, is the size of the change in its location over time or the size of the change in its position per unit of time.

The mass of the volleyball is 2.1 kg.

The speed of the ball when the ball leaves the hand is 30 m/s.

m = 2.1 kg

v = 30 m/s

The kinetic energy of an object is given as:

KE = (1/2 ) × m × v²

KE = (1 / 2) × 2.1 kg × ( 30 m/s)²

KE = (1 / 2) × 2.1 kg × 30 m/s × 30 m/s

KE = 2.1 kg × 15 m/s × 30 m/s

KE = 945 J

According to a rule-of-thumb. every five seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the f
Bond [772]

Answer:

S_{s}=300 m/s

The rule for kilometers is that every three seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the flash in kilometers.

Explanation:

In order to use the rule of thumb to find the speed of sound in meters per second, we need to use some conversion ratios. We know there is 1 mile per every 5 seconds after the lightning is seen. We also know that there are 5280ft in 1 mile and we also know that there are 0.3048m in 1ft. This is enough information to solve this problem. We set our conversion ratios like this:

\frac{1mi}{5s}*\frac{5280ft}{1mi}*\frac{0.3048m}{1ft}=321.87m/s

notice how the ratios were written in such a way that the units got cancelled when calculating them. Notice that in one ratio the miles were on the numerator of the fraction while on the other they were on the denominator, which allows us to cancel them. The same happened with the feet.

The problem asks us to express the answer to one significant figure so the speed of sound rounds to 300m/s.

For the second part of the problem we need to use conversions again. This time we will write our ratios backwards and take into account that there are 1000m to 1 km, so we get:

\frac{5s}{1mi}*\frac{1mi}{5280ft}*\frac{1ft}{0.3048m}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=3.11s/km

This means that for every 3.11s there will be a distance of 1km from the place where the lightning stroke. Since this is a rule of thumb, we round to the nearest integer for the calculations to be made easily, so the rule goes like this:

The rule for kilometers is that every three seconds between a lightning flash and the following thunder gives the distance to the flash in kilometers.
