How do you determine the acceleration of an object?

Physics
1 answer:
IgorC [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Divide the change in velocity by the time interval

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

mathematically it is the change in velocity divided by the time taken for that change.

i.e Divide the change in velocity by the time interval.

The graph below shows the speed of a car as it drives along a racetrack.
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Average speed = distance/time

From 1 to 9 seconds:

Distance covered = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8 km

Time = 9 - 1 = 8 sec

Average speed = 0.8 km / 8 sec

Average speed = 0.1 km/s .

The average speed for the whole test is 1.6 km / 20 sec = 0.08 km/sec. A graph of speed vs time would average out as a horizontal line at 0.08 km/sec from 1 sec to 21 sec. The area under it would be (0.08 km/s) x (20 sec) = 1.6 km.

Surprise surprise ! The area under a speed/time graph is the distance covered during that time !

In closing, I want to express my gratitude for the gracious bounty of 3 points with which I have been showered. Moreover, the green breadcrust and tepid cloudy water have also been refreshing.

A box full of charged plastic balls sits on a table. The electric force exerted on a ball near one upper corner of the box has c
tatuchka [14]

We have that the values for F north, F east, F up are

  • F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}
  • F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}
  • F_E=2*10^{-6}

From the Question we are told that

electric force F_1 = 1.2 x 10^{-3} N(N)

electric force , F_2=5.7 x 10^{-4} N(E)

electric force , F_3=2.2 x 10^{-4} N (U)

charge on this ball one q_1= 110 nC.

charge on this ball two q_2= -50 nC.

Generally the equation for the F north  is mathematically given as

F_N=\frac{F_1}{q_1}\\\\F_N=\frac{ 1.2 * 10^{-3} )}{110}

F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}

For F East

F_E=\frac{F_2}{q_1}\\\\F_E=\frac{5.7 x 10^-4 }{110}

F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}

For F UP

F_U=\frac{F_3}{q_1}\\\\F_U=\frac{2.2 x 10^-4 }{110}

F_E=2*10^{-6}

two ships leave a port at the same time. The first ship sails on a bearing of 40 degrees at 18 knots and the second at a bearing
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The distance between the ships is 87.84 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle of first ship= 40°

Speed of first ship = 18 knots

Angle of second ship= 130°

Speed of second ship = 26 knots

We need to calculate the resultant velocity

Using cosine rule

v=\sqrt{v_{1}^2+v_{2}^2-2v_{1}v_{2}\cos\theta}

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{18^2+26^2-2\times18\times26\times\cos90}

v=\sqrt{18^2+26^2}

v=\sqrt{324+676}

v=10\sqrt{10}

We need to calculate the distance between the ships

d =v\times t

Put the value into the formula

d=10\sqrt{10}\times1.5\times1.852

d=87.84\ km

Hence, The distance between the ships is 87.84 km.

A body of mass 2.7 kg makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but w
kramer

Answer:

a)

1.35 kg

b)

2.67 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

a)

m_{1} = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

m_{2} = mass of second body = ?

v_{1i} = initial velocity of the first body before collision = v

v_{2i} = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

v_{1f} = final velocity of the first body after collision =

using conservation of momentum equation

m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) v + m_{2} (0) = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} ) + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) (\frac{2v}{3} ) = m_{2} v_{2f}\\v_{2f} = \frac{1.8v}{m_{2}}

Using conservation of kinetic energy

m_{1} v_{1i}^{2}+ m_{2} v_{2i}^{2} = m_{1} v_{1f}^{2} + m_{2} v_{2f}^{2} \\(2.7) v^{2} + m_{2} (0)^{2} = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} )^{2} + m_{2} (\frac{1.8v}{m_{2}})^{2} \\(2.7) = (0.3) + \frac{3.24}{m_{2}}\\m_{2} = 1.35

b)

m_{1} = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

m_{2} = mass of second body = 1.35 kg

v_{1i} = initial velocity of the first body before collision = 4 ms⁻¹

v_{2i} = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

Speed of the center of mass of two-body system is given as

v_{cm} = \frac{(m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i})}{(m_{1} + m_{2})}\\v_{cm} = \frac{((2.7) (4) + (1.35) (0))}{(2.7 + 1.35)}\\\\v_{cm} = 2.67 ms⁻¹
