A car traveling at 37m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 15 seconds. What is it’s acceleration

Physics

LuckyWell [14K]3 years ago

<u>Answer</u>

The acceleration is

a=-2.5ms^{-2} to the nearest tenth

<u>Explanation</u>

Since the car was travelling at 37ms^{-1} before it starts to decelerate, the initial velocity is

u=37ms^{-1}.

The final velocity is v=0ms^{-1}, because the car came to a stop.

The time taken is t=15s.

Using the Newton's equation of linear motion,

v=u +at, we find the acceleration by substituting the known values.


This implies that,

0=37 +a(15)

This gives us,

0-37=15a


\Rightarrow -37=15a


We divide both sides by 15 to get,

a=-\frac{37}{15}ms^{-2}

or

a=-2.46667ms^{-2}

If the world was not tilted, what would happen to the people living on Earth
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Image result for If the world was not tilted, what would happen to the people living on Earth

If the Earth weren't tilted on its axis, there would be no seasons. And humanity would suffer. When a Mars-size object collided with Earth 4.5 billion years ago, it knocked off a chunk that would become the moon. It also tilted Earth sideways a bit, so that our planet now orbits the sun on a slant

The lons entering the mass spectrometer have the same charges. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 8.20 kV
Ratling [72]

The calculated magnitude is  6.73 x 10³ V/m.

AMU is described as being one-twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom (12C). C makes up more than 98% of the carbon that can be found in nature, making it the most prevalent isotope. The magnitude of the field is the change in potential across a small distance in the indicated direction divided by that distance.

Potential difference = 8.20 kV= 8.20 x 10³ V

radius= 19.4/100=0.194 m

total distance that is circumference of the circle= 2πr =2 x 3.14 x 0.194

                                                                               = 1.218 m

therefore Magnitude= 8.20 x 10³ / 1.218

                                  =6.73 x 10³ V/m
