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>

What type of heat do we get from sun
seraphim [82]
The type of heat that the Sun emits is called UV (Ultra Violet) rays. This is a natural type of heat, but it can also be dangerous if you expose yourself to too much UV heat, causing "sunburns", or even skin cancer.

Why is the ocean warmer than the air at night
Sliva [168]

You see, during the day the ocean collects heat from the sun. So the air above the ocean get warm at night, but the rest of the air on the land gets cooler because water has the ability to collect energy from the Sun.

What is the difference between a negative feedback system and a positive feedback system?
Anni [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The negative feedback is responsible for maintaining equilibrium (stability) in a system as it lessens effects, which is contrary to positive feedback which increases reaction and moves a system further away from equilibrium (stability), It does so by amplifying the effects of a product or event and occurs when something needs to happen quickly. e.g

  • Insulin lowers down blood sugar levels, so when the body detects that it has too much sugar, the pancreas is prompted to release insulin and only stops when balance is achieved; hence, negative feedback.  
  •  When there is a tear on the skin, a chemical is released. This chemical causes platelets in the blood to activate, hence they release a chemical which signals more platelets to activate, until the wound is clotted, positive feedback.

Normal atmospheric pressure is 1.013 105 Pa. The approach of a storm causes the height of a mercury barometer to drop by 27.1 mm
Burka [1]

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure is 0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa.

Explanation:

Given that,

Atmospheric pressure P_{atm}= 1.013\times10^{5}\ Pa    

drop height h'= 27.1 mm

Density of mercury \rho= 13.59 g/cm^3

We need to calculate the height

Using formula of pressure

p = \rho g h

Put the value into the formula

1.013\times10^{5}=13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times h

h =\dfrac{1.013\times10^{5}}{13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8}

h=0.76\ m

We need to calculate the new height

h''=h - h'

h''=0.76-27.1\times10^{-3}

h''=0.76-0.027

h''=0.733\ m

We need to calculate the atmospheric pressure

Using formula of atmospheric pressure

P=\rho g h

Put the value into the formula

P= 13.59\times10^{3}\times9.8\times0.733

P=0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa

Hence, The atmospheric pressure is 0.97622\times10^{5}\ Pa.
