8)Acceleration of the car is 11.17 m/s².

9) Acceleration of skater is 0.57 m/s².

10) The deceleration is 1.8 m/s².

11) The average acceleration of the sprinter is 2 m/s².

12) The velocity of the stroller after 4.75 minutes is 171 m/s.

13) The skier will be moving as 11 m/s speed.

14) 0.56 seconds is required by the rattle snake to reach the speed of 28 m/s from rest.

Answer:

Explanation:

8) Acceleration of the car is determined by finding the ratio of change in velocity to the time taken for the change in velocity. As here the initial velocity is 18.5 m/s and the final velocity is 46.1 m/s, then in 2.47 seconds, the acceleration is

Acceleration = (46.1-18.5)/2.47 = 11.17 m/s².

Acceleration of the car is 11.17 m/s².

9)Similarly, the acceleration of the skater with initial velocity zero to final velocity as 5.7 m/s in 10 seconds is

Acceleration = (5.7-0)/10=0.57 m/s².

So acceleration of skater is 0.57 m/s².

10) In this case, the shuttle bus is stopping so its speed is decreasing from high value to low value. This kind of acceleration related to the decrease in velocity is termed as deceleration as the value of acceleration will be coming as negative.

Acceleration = (0-9)/5=-1.8 m/s².

So the deceleration is 1.8 m/s².

11) Average acceleration of sprinter = (Final velocity-Initial velocity)/Time

Average acceleration = (7.5-5)/1.25=2 m/s².

So the average acceleration of the sprinter is 2 m/s².

12)Since the acceleration of the stroller is given as 0.6 m/s². And the initial velocity is given as zero. So for the time of 4.75 minutes, the velocity will be equal to the final velocity.

As per equations of motion,

v = u +at

As u =0, a = 0.6 m/s² and t = 4.75 ×60 s = 285 s

So v = 0.6×285 = 171 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the stroller after 4.75 minutes is 171 m/s.

13) Similarly, in this case, u = 0, a = 2.2 m/s² and t = 5 s

Then v = u+at=0+(2.2×5)=11 m/s

So the skier will be moving as 11 m/s speed.

14) Here a = 50 m/s² and v = 28 m/s with u = 0 so time taken to reach the speed of 28 m/s is

v = u +at = 0+ (50 t)

28 = 50 t

t = 28/50 = 0.56 s

So 0.56 seconds is required by the rattle snake to reach the speed of 28 m/s from rest.

What is the definition of a biased person
Maru [420]

Answer:

A biased person favors one side or issue over another.

Explanation:

For example say there is a soccer game going on Blue Team VS Red Team,

and the ref wants the Blue Team to win, so he helps the Blue Team win the calling fouls for them or not calling foals for the Red Team.

He is being biased.

Which scientist determined that the further a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to orbit the sun? ~ I think it might b
lozanna [386]

That was Johannes Kepler. 

He couldn't say why that should happen.  But he was able to show that
if we <em><u>assume</u></em> the the sun is in the center of the solar system, and <em><u>assume</u></em>
that the planets revolve around the sun in elliptical orbits, and <em><u>assume</u></em> that
the farther a planet is from the sun the longer it takes to orbit the sun, then
<em>that matches everything that we see the planets actually doing in the sky</em>.

Then Isaac Newton came along, and wrote down a short, simple formula
for the force of gravity.  And then he showed that <u>IF</u> his formula for gravity
is correct, then the planets MUST do everything that we see them actually
doing in the sky, and they MUST behave according to Kepler's laws.

(a) The Eskimo pushes the same 50.0-kg sled over level ground with a force of 1.75 102 N exerted horizontally, moving it a dista
vivado [14]

Answer: 0.306

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following

mass of sled (m) = 50 kg

force (f) = 1.75 x 10^2 N = 175 N

distance (s) = 6 m

net work done on the sled = 1.50 x 10 ^2 N = 150 N

acceleration due to gravity (g)  = 9.8 m/s^2

coefficient of friction = μ

lets first calculate the frictional force (ff)

ff =  μ x m x g = μ  x 50 x 9.8 = 490 μ

work done on the slide by the applied force (W1)=  f x s = 175 x 6 = 1050 j

work done on the slide by frictional force (W2) = ff x s = 490 μ x 6 = 2940μ j

now the net work done is the work done by the frictional force subtracted from the work done by the applied force

net work done = W1 - W2

150 = 1050 -  2940μ

2940μ = 1050 - 150

μ = 900 / 2940

μ = 0.306

3. In what circumstance will a flash of lightning travel through the sky and<br> touch the ground?
alexgriva [62]

Answer: The answer is both. Cloud-to-ground lightning comes from the sky down, but the part you see comes from the ground up. A typical cloud-to-ground flash lowers a path of negative electricity (that we cannot see) towards the ground in a series of spurts.
