Answer:

220 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

initial speed of car= 22 m/s

final speed of car= 0 m/s

time taken by car to stop= 0.1 s

acceleration of car is equal to change in velocity per unit time

  a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{t}

  a = \dfrac{v_f-v_i}{t}

  a = \dfrac{0-22}{0.1}

         a = -220 m/s²

negative sign represent deceleration of the body

hence, deceleration of car is equal to a = 220 m/s²

A car is traveling north at 17.7 m/s . After 6 it’s velocity is 141 in the same direction. Find the magnitude and direction of t
Furkat [3]

By equation of motion we have   v = u + at

Where u = Initial velocity, v = final velocity, t = time taken and a = acceleration

Here v = 141 m/s, u = 17.7 m/s and t = 6 s

On substitution we will get

        141 = 17.7+ 6a

       So, a = (141-17.7)/6 = 20. 55 m/s^{2}

       Aceeleration = 20. 55 m/s^{2} along north direction.

Please help me with this question guys.

Answer:

<em>The average speed is 22.2 km/h</em>

Explanation:

<u>Average Speed</u>

Given an object travels a total distance d and took a total time t, then the average speed is:

\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{d}{t}

The mailman first drives d1=7 km at v1=15 km/h. The time taken to drive is:

\displaystyle t1=\frac{d1}{v1}=\frac{7}{15}=0.467\ h

Then he drives d2=7 km at v2=43 km/h taking a time of:

\displaystyle t2=\frac{d2}{v2}=\frac{7}{43}=0.163\ h

The total time is

t=0.467 h + 0.163 h = 0.63 h

The total distance is

d = 7 km + 7 km = 14 km

The average speed is:

\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{14}{0.63}=22.2\ km/h

The average speed is 22.2 km/h

A football player with a mass of 88 kg and a speed of 2.0 m/s collides head-on with a player from the opposing team whose mass i
Ket [755]

Answer:

Speed of another player, v₂ = 1.47 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of football player, m₁ = 88 kg

Speed of player, v₁ = 2 m/s

Mass of player of opposing team, m₂ = 120 kg

The players stick together and are at rest after the collision. It shows an example of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum as :

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V

V is the final velocity after collision. Here, V = 0 as both players comes to rest after collision.

v_2=-\dfrac{m_1v_1}{m_2}

v_2=-\dfrac{88\ kg\times 2\ m/s}{120\ kg}

v_2=-1.47\ m/s

So, the speed of another player is 1.47 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 72.0 units. If the charge of object 1 is doubled AND the charge
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

432 units

Explanation:

Let the charges be q and Q separated by a distance r. The electrostatic force , F = kqQ/r² = 72 units. If q = 2q and Q = 3Q, then the new electrostatic force is

F = k × 2q × 3Q/r² = 6kqQ/r² = 6 × 72 = 432 units
