Answer:

s = 38.7 m

Explanation:

First we calculate the distance covered during uniform motion of reaction time.

s₁ = vt

where,

s₁ = distance covered during uniform motion = ?

v = uniform speed = 11 m/s

t = time = 2.3 s

Therefore,

s₁ = (11 m/s)(2.3 s)

s₁ = 25.3 m

Now, we calculate the distance covered during decelerated motion:

2as₂ = Vf² - Vi²

where,

a = deceleration = -4.5 m/s²

s₂ = distance covered during decelerated motion = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s

Vi = Initial Velocity = 11 m/s

Therefore,

2(-4.5 m/s²)s₂ = (0 m/s)² - (11 m/s)²

s₂ = (-121 m²/s²)/(-9 m/s²)

s₂ = 13.4 m

the total distance will be:

s = s₁ + s₂

s = 25.3 m + 13.4 m

<u>s = 38.7 m</u>

Planets A and B have the same size, mass, and direction of travel, but planet A is traveling through space at half the speed of
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

B. You would weigh the same on both planets because their masses and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Explanation:

Given that Planets A and B have the same size, mass.

Let the masses of the planets A and B are m_A and m_B respectively.

As masses are equal, so m_A=m_B\cdots(i).

Similarly, let the radii of the planets A and B are r_A and r_B respectively.

As radii are equal, so r_A=r_B\cdots(ii).

Let my mass is m.

As the weight of any object on the planet is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the planet on the object.

So, my weight on planet A, w_A= \frac {Gm_Am}{r_A^2}

my weight of planet B, w_B=\frac {Gm_Bm}{r_B^2}

By using equations (i) and (ii),

w_B=\frac {Gm_Am}{r_A^2}=w_A.

So, the weight on both planets is the same because their masses and the distance to their centers of gravity are the same.

Hence, option (B) is correct.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Explanation:

Given:

u = 20 m/s

a = 5 m/s^2

v = 30 m/s

t = ?

Use the first kinematic equation of motion:

v = u + at

t = (v - u)/a = 10/5 = 2 seconds
