The answer id 4 m/s/s this is because 12/3 = 4 and an easy way to get the units is put the two together

Acceleration = m/s (Meters per second)
Time = s (Seconds)

m/s/s = Meters per second/ Per second

b) 4m/s/s

This is because you divide the speed you reach, by the time it takes to get to that speed:

12m/s ÷ 3s = 4m/s/s

The units come from what you divide, meters per second ÷ seconds this can be written as m/s/s or ms-²

A brick in the shape of a cube with sides 10 cm has a density of 2500 kg/m^3. What is its weight? a.) 250 N
Arisa [49]

Answer:

c.) 25 N

Explanation:

 We find the volume of the brick, knowing that the volume of a cube is given by the formula:

l=0,1 metros \\V=l^{3}\\V=(0,1\: \: m)^{3}=0,001\: \: m^{3}

being l the side of the cube, which in this case is 10 cm or 0,1 m. Now we find the mass of the object, knowing the density and the Volume of the cube:

m=V*d\\m=(0,001 \:\:m^{3})(2500 \: \: \frac{Kg}{m^{3}})=2,5 \:\: Kg

We find the weight by multiplying the mass of the object with the gravity constant.

W=m*g=(2.5 \:Kg)*(9,81 \:m/s^{2} )=24,5 N\approx25\: N

How does uncertainty relate to measurements and calculations made during an investigation?
DerKrebs [107]
Uncertainty means that your result may be very random, so you can't trust the first or second or so observation, making several samples critical for accuracy. <span />

Why is it important to develop alternative energy sources
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The alternative energy sources are defined as those resources that are used in place of the natural and non-renewable resources. This resources plays an important role in the conservation of natural resources.

The fossil fuels are the resources on which the people are directly dependent. Burning up of these fossils leads to the emission of carbon, which has a direct impact on earth. A small increase in the amount of carbon dioxide can lead to the increase in the surface temperature of earth.

In addition to this, these fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum, oil and natural gases are found to be present in a limited proportion, and it is a very expensive process to obtain these resources, so sustainable development method must be adopted in order to save this natural resources for the future generation.

Some of the examples of alternative resources that are widely used in place of fossil fuels are wind energy, solar energy, tidal energy, biomass energy and bio-fuels.

Thus, it is very important to develop and use alternative resources.
