For this we need to use several formulas:
v = a*t
This simply means that after 1 second we will have some speed and if we double time, speed will double as well.

But, relation time-traveled distance isn't linear. Traveled distance we calculate:
s = 1/2*a*t^2                we can say that h=s
so if we double time, traveled distance will increase 4 times because of square relation between time and traveled distance.

New traveled distance (h2) will be: h2=4*h

b)  Because distance depends on gravity acceleration in free fall h2 will certainly change but the relation h2=4*h will remain the same.

A 1250 kg car is pulling a 325 kb trailer. The car and trailer have an acceleration of 2,15m/sec2 together. Determine the net fo
xenn [34]

To solve this problem we will apply the definition of Newton's second law, which says that force is equivalent to body mass by acceleration. In this case the mass of the trailer is 325Kg and its acceleration is 2.15m / s ^ 2, so we will proceed to replace and multiply these values to find the net force on this object.

F= ma

F= (325 kg)(2.15 m/s^2)

F= 698.75N

Under the reference system in which the direction of travel is the positive direction, the direction of the force will be positive.

Un móvil se desplaza con movimiento uniforme con una rapidez de 36 Km/h ¿Cuál es la distancia recorrida al cabo de 0,5 horas?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Distancia = 17,5 kilómetros.

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Velocidad = 36 km/h

Tiempo = 0.5 horas

Para encontrar la distancia recorrida;

Distancia = velocidad * tiempo

Distancia = 35 * 0.5

Distancia = 17,5 kilómetros.

Por tanto, la distancia recorrida por el automóvil es de 17,5 kilómetros.
