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} ]

The increase in volume of matter that occurs when matter is heated. a) Contraction b) Expansion c) kinetic energy d) Volume
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

b) Expansion

Explanation:

In science, matter can be defined as anything that has mass and occupies space. Any physical object that is found on earth is typically composed of matter. Matter are known to be made up of atoms and as a result has the property of existing in states.

Generally, matter exists in three (3) distinct or classical phases and these are; solid, liquid and gas.

A physical change can be defined as a type of change that involves an increase or decrease in the volume of a physical object (object). Also, this change can be reversed to the original state under certain conditions.

The increase in volume of matter that occurs when matter is heated causes an expansion.

This ultimately implies that, when a physical object (matter) is heated for a specific period of time, it result in an increase in the volume of the object; this phenomenon is generally referred to as expansion.

On the other hand, a decrease in volume of a physical object (matter) as a result of heat is known as contraction.

Suppose you drop a tennis ball from a height of 6 feet. After the ball hits the floor, it rebounds to 80% of
sasho [114]
The formula to solve this is (.80)^3 X 6 and the answer would be 3.1 feet. That is how high the ball will rebound after its third bounce. Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

Describe J.J Thomson's plum pudding model,and explain how it compares to the modern day atomic theory.​
juin [17]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The J.J Thomson's plum pudding model establishes that when he researched the atom, he found that electrons are positively charged. Because he observed that electrons were embedded like plums. Electrons are negative. However, compared to the modern-day atomic theory, scientist Ernest Rutherford established that the space between an atom is empty, the nucleus of the atom is positive, and negative electrons have fixed motion paths.

What is 1/12+7/9 hj​
Umnica [9.8K]

Explanation:

\frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  \\  \\  =  \frac{1 \times 3}{12 \times 3}  +  \frac{7 \times 4}{9 \times 4} \\  \\  =  \frac{3}{36}  +  \frac{28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{3 + 28}{36}  \\  \\  =  \frac{31}{36}  \\  \\   \huge \purple{ \boxed{\therefore \:  \frac{1}{12}  +  \frac{7}{9}  =  \frac{31}{36} }} \\
