A car travelling 10m/s increases its speed to 20m/s over a time of 4s. What is the acceleration of the car? A car is traveling a

t a speed of 15m/s. It experiences an acceleration of -3m/s^2, that lasts for 4 seconds. What is the final velocity of the car? I need an expanation on HOW to solve this.

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity with respect to time.

Acceleration = change in velocity/Time

Acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity/Time

Given initial velocity = 10m/s

Final velocity = 20m/s

Time taken = 4s

Acceleration = 20-10/4

Acceleration = 10/4

Acceleration =2.5m/s²

For the second part of the question:

Given parameters

initial velocity = 15m/s

acceleration = -3m/s²

time = 4seconds

a = v-u/t

-3 = v-15/4

cross multiply

-12 = v-15

add 15 from both sides

-12+15 = v-15+15

3 = v

<em>Hence the final velocity of the car is 3m/s</em>

Vector A⃗ points in the negative y direction and has a magnitude of 5 km. Vector B⃗ has a magnitude of 15 km and points in the p
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

magnitude of A − B =  15.81 km

Explanation:

Vector A points in the negative y-direction and has a magnitude of 5 km. Vector B points in the positive x-direction and has a  magnitude of 15 km.

According to Cartesian coordinate system, the resultant will start either from tail of A and ends at head of B and vice-versa.

A(0,-5)

B(15,0)

A - B = (-15 i - 5 j )

Magnitude of the vector is given by

|A - B| = \sqrt{(-15)^{2}+(-5)^{2}}

|A - B| = \sqrt{250}

|A - B| = 15.81 km

An initially motionless test car is accelerated to 115 km/h in 8.58 s before striking a simulated deer. The car is in contact wi
hoa [83]

Answer:

a)       a = 3.72 m / s², b)    a = -18.75 m / s²

Explanation:

a) Let's use kinematics to find the acceleration before the collision

             v = v₀ + at

as part of rest the v₀ = 0

             a = v / t

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              v = 115 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s)

              v = 31.94 m / s

              v₂ = 60 km / h = 16.66 m / s

l

et's calculate

             a = 31.94 / 8.58

             a = 3.72 m / s²

b) For the operational average during the collision let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

            I = Δp

            F Δt = m v_f - m v₀

            F = \frac{m ( v_f - v_o)}{t}

            F = m [16.66 - 31.94] / 0.815

            F = m (-18.75)

Having the force let's use Newton's second law

            F = m a

            -18.75 m = m a

             a = -18.75 m / s²

Why do areas with low altitude have warmer air than areas with high altitude
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).
