For this, we will use the formula:

<span>a = [V₀⁻V₁]÷t

</span>Where:

a - Acceleration
<span>V₀ - Final Velocity
</span>V₁ - Initial Velocity
<span>t - Time

</span>Given:
a = -2.0 m/s²
V₁ = 15.0 m/s
V₀ = 0 m/s ; because the car stopped

Find:
t = ?

Solution:

a = [V₀⁻V₁]÷t

First, we should derive the formula to the element that we are looking for (which is time).

t = [V₀⁻V₁]÷a
t = [0 m/s - 15.0 m/s]÷(-2.0 m/s²) ; substituting the numbers
t = -15.0 m/s ÷ -2.0m/s²
t = 7.5 seconds ; cancelling the removable units thus resulting only to the time unit s(seconds)

It took the car 7.5 seconds to stop

4. A car, initially traveling east with a speed of
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

150 m

Explanation:

Given,

u=5m/s

a=2m/s2

t=10s

v=?

s=?

Now,

v=u+at

=5+2×10

=5+20

=25m/s

So,

s=u+v/2×t

=5+25/2×10

=30/2×10

=15×10

=150m

How far will a rubber ball fall in 10 seconds?
Inessa [10]

If it's not moving at all at the beginning of the 10 seconds, then it falls 490 meters straight down in 10 seconds.

(Note: This is true of all objects on Earth . . . rubber balls, feathers, grains of sand, school buses, battle ships . . . everything.  As long as air doesn't hold them back.  Anything falling from rest falls 490 meters in the first 10 seconds.)

In a nuclear physics experiment, a proton (mass 1.67×10^(−27)kg, charge +e=+1.60×10^(−19)C) is fired directly at a target nucleu
Arte-miy333 [17]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

In a nuclear physics experiment, a proton (mass 1.67 \times 10^(-27)kg, charge +e = +1.60 \times 10^(-19) C) is fired directly at a target nucleus of unknown charge. (You can treat both objects as point charges, and assume that the nucleus remains at rest.) When it is far from its target, the proton has speed 2.50 \times 10^6 m/s. The proton comes momentarily to rest at a distance 5.31 \times 10^(-13) m from the center of the target nucleus, then flies back in the direction from which it came. What is the electric potential energy of the proton and nucleus when they are 5.31 \times 10^{-13} m apart?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Mass of proton = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

Charge of proton = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

Speed of proton = 2.50 \times 10^{6} m/s

Distance traveled = 5.31 \times 10^{-13} m

We will calculate the electric potential energy of the proton and the nucleus by conservation of energy as follows.

  (K.E + P.E)_{initial} = (K.E + P.E)_{final}

 (\frac{1}{2} m_{p}v^{2}_{p}) = (\frac{kq_{p}q_{t}}{r} + 0)

where,    \frac{kq_{p}q_{t}}{r} = U = Electric potential energy

     U = (\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v^{2}_{p})

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

        U = (\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v^{2}_{p})

            = (\frac{1}{2} \times 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \times (2.5 \times 10^{6})^{2})

            = 5.218 \times 10^{-15} J

Therefore, we can conclude that the electric potential energy of the proton and nucleus is 5.218 \times 10^{-15} J.
