Acceleration  of a body is defined as rate of chance in velocity with respect to time and its S.I. Units are meter/sec^{2}/ or m/s^{2}

Magnitude of average acceleration of a body = (final speed - initial speed)/time interval = (v- u)/t

where, final speed =v= 11 m/s; initial speed = u = 6 m/s; and time interval = t = 3 s

Hence acceleration = (11-6)/3 = 5/3 = 1.67 m/s^{2}

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The acceleration of the object is 1.667 m/s2.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given data:

Initial velocity = v1 = 6 m/s

Final velocity = v2 = 11 m/s

Time period = t = 3 s

Solution:

Acceleration = a = ( v2 - v1)/t

By putting values in the above formula:

Acceleration = a = (11 - 6)/3

                        a = 5/3 = 1.6667

Explanation:

Acceleration of an moving object is the change of velocity of an object divided by the total time taken by the object which is time period. So by putting values it comes that acceleration of object is 1.6667 m/s2.

The unit is meter per second square.

Improper temperature control is one of the primary causes of _________.
kogti [31]
Improper temperature control is one of the primary causes of illness or diseases as if the temperature is not set right, it could make bacteria grow or expand which is potentially harmful especially if they are to consume food-- if you food is contaminated with harmful bacteria because of improper temperature control, it could cause the food to be contaminated or spoiled, when consumed, it could led the person to have food poisoning.

If 1/8 remains after 21 years, what is the half-life?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Half life formula

The number of unstable nuclei remaining after time t can be determined according to this equation:

N(t) = N(0) * 0.5^(t/T)

where:

N(t) is the remaining quantity of a substance after time t has elapsed.

N(0) is the initial quantity of this substance.

T is the half-life.

It is also possible to determine the remaining quantity of a substance using a few other parameters:

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-t/τ)

N(t) = N(0) * e^(-λt)

τ is the mean lifetime - the average amount of time a nucleus remains intact.

λ is the decay constant (rate of decay).

All three of the parameters characterizing a substance's radioactivity are related in the following way:

T = ln(2)/λ = ln(2)*τ

How to calculate the half life

Determine the initial amount of a substance. For example, N(0) = 2.5 kg.

Determine the final amount of a substance - for instance, N(t) = 2.1 kg.

Measure how long it took for that amount of material to decay. In our experiment, we observed that it took 5 minutes.

Input these values into our half life calculator. It will compute a result for you instantaneously - in this case, the half life is equal to 19.88 minutes.

If you are not certain that our calculator returned the correct result, you can always check it using the half life formula.

Why is oxygen important for all body cells?
Masja [62]

Answer:

Our body cells require oxygen to release energy.

Explanation:

The oxygen that we take in during respiration is used to break down the food we eat to release energy from it. When we breathe in oxygen, it diffuses into blood from the lung, where it is transported by red blood cells to the entire body to be used to produce energy.
