Answer:

50 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance Travelled =2000 meters

Time Taken =40 seconds

velocity = ?

we know,

velocity = Distance / Time

=(2000 / 40) ms⁻¹

=50 ms⁻¹

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Before sled starts to move it has a potential energy due to the elevation...and then that potential energy converted to kinetic energy due to presence of a velocity...the sled will continue to move if their is no resesive force...but however friction force is presence that cause the sled to stop....

Laney et al. (false memory):(a) Outline the rating scale used in the Food History Inventory [2 marks]

djverab [1.8K]

Answer: The rating scale that is used in food history inventory is from 1 to 8.

Explanation:

In this case the participants have to rate 24 items on a scale of 1 to 8.There are variety of questions related to food or fooding habits.

The questions like do you go out for food?

Do you like bread ? if yes how will you rate it on a scale of 1 to 8.

The questions like this has to be answered in a way . It is done in order to see the preferences and false memory regarding the food preference that people have.

24. An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a. The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m is

Wewaii [24]

Given :-

An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a.

To Find :-

The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m .

Solution :-

As the man is in a accelerated frame that is non inertial frame , we would have to think of a pseudo force .

The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .

For the FBD refer to the attachment . From that ,

$\implies Weight_{apparent}= mg + ma$

Hence option d is correct choice .

I hope this helps .

A group of students are playing tug-of-war. The students on both

Andrews [41]

Answer:

newton's first law

Explanation:

this is because newton's first law of motion states that every object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless a resultant force acts on it.

hope this helps, if you want more elaboration, tell me

If he were able to maintain this constant rate of acceleration, what would have been his speed as he finished the race?

Law Incorporation [45]

a) 4.8 m/s² his average acceleration during the first 2.5 s

b) 15 m distance he cover during the first 2.5 seconds.

c) 31 m/s his speed as he finished the race.

<h3>(a) How to calculate the Average Acceleration ?</h3>

Average acceleration is calculated by using Newtons first law of motion

v = u + at

where

u is initial velocity

v is final velocity

a is constant acceleration

t is time

Given u = 0m/s , v = 12 m/s and t = 2.5 sec

Therefore average acceleration is given by

$a=\frac{v}{t}$

$a=\frac{12}{2.5}$

a = 4.8 m/sec²

b) Here we will use newtons second law of motion

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

On substituting value we get

s = 15m

c) Here we will use newtons third law of motion

v² = u² + 2as

Here u = 0 , a = 4.8 m/s² and s = 100 m

Therefore

v² = 960

v = 31 m/s

Question: Usain Bolt's 100m sprint Runner set the world record for the100 meter sprint during the 2009World Championships in Berlin with a time of 9.58 s, reaching a top speed of 12 m/s in about 2.5 s.

a. What was his average acceleration during the first 2.5 s?

b. What distance did he cover during the first 2.5 seconds, assuming his acceleration was constant?

c. If he were able to maintain this constant rate of acceleration, what would have been his speed as he finished the race?
