Physics

Answer:

a= - 6.667 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

The initial speed of the box ,u= 20 m/s

The final speed of the box ,v=  0 m/s

The distance cover by box ,s= 30 m

Lets take the acceleration of the box = a

We know that

v²= u ² + 2 a s

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

0²=20² + 2 a x 30

a=- \dfrac{20^2}{2\times 30} \ m/s^2

a= - 6.667 m/s²

Negative sign indicates that velocity and acceleration are in opposite direction.

Therefore the acceleration of the box will be  - 6.667 m/s² .

Why are we mentley unstable to time travle
leva [86]

Answer:

Mental time travel has been studied by psychologists, cognitive neuroscientists, philosophers and in a variety of other academic disciplines. Major areas of interest include the nature of the relationship between memory and foresight, the evolution of the ability (including whether it is uniquely human or shared with other animals), its development in young children, its underlying brain mechanisms, as well as its potential links to consciousness, the self, and free will.
