Answer:

Instantaneous velocity

Explanation:

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

Average velocity = total displacement divided by total time taken

Position = It shows the location of the object

Instantaneous velocity = It is the velocity of an object at a particular instant.

The term that describes how fast and in what direction an object is moving at a particular moment is "instantaneous velocity". It is basically equal to the derivative of position wrt time.

It has been suggested, and not facetiously, that life might have originated on Mars and been carried to Earth when a meteor hit

damaskus [11]

Answer:

$a=3125000 m/s^2\\a=3.125*10^6 m/s^2$

Acceleration, in m/s, of such a rock fragment = $3.125*10^6m/s^2$

Explanation:

According to Newton's Third Equation of motion

$V_f^2-V_i^2=2as$

Where:

$V_f$ is the final velocity

$V_i$ is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance

In our case:

$V_f=V_{escape}, V_i=0,s=4 m$

So Equation will become:

$V_{escape}^2-V_i^2=2as\\V_{escape}^2-0=2as\\V_{escape}^2=2as\\a=\frac{V_{escape}^2}{2s}\\a=\frac{(5*10^3m)^2}{2*4}\\a=3125000 m/s^2\\a=3.125*10^6 m/s^2$

Acceleration, in m/s, of such a rock fragment = $3.125*10^6m/s^2$

A Neglecting air resistance, a ball projected straight upward so it remains in the air for 10 seconds needs an initial speed of

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time = 10 sec

For first half,

We need to calculate the height

Using equation of motion

$v^2=u^2+2gh$

$h =\dfrac{v^2}{2g}$ ....(I)

For second half,

We need to calculate the time

Using equation of motion

$h =ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2$

$h=0+\dfrac{1}{2}gt_{2}^2$

$t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}$

Put the value of h from equation (I)

$t_{2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times v^2}{g^2}}$

$t_{2}=\dfrac{v}{g}$

According to question,

$t_{1}+t_{2}=10$

$t_{1}=t_{2}$

Put the value of t₁ and t₂

$\dfrac{v}{g}+\dfrac{v}{g}=10$

$\dfrac{2v}{g}=10$

$v=\dfrac{10\times g}{2}$

Here, g = 10

The initial velocity is

$v=\dfrac{10\times10}{2}$

$v=50\ m/s$

Hence, The initial velocity is 50 m/s.

Determine the magnitude of the resultant force acting on a 1.5 −kg particle at the instant t=2 s, if the particle is moving alon

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

F = 63N

Explanation:

M= 1.5kg , t= 2s, r = (2t + 10)m and

Θ = (1.5t² - 6t).

magnitude of the resultant force acting on 1.5kg = ?

Force acting on the mass =

∑Fr =MAr

Fr = m(∇r² - rθ²) ..........equation (i)

∑Fθ = MAθ = M(d²θ/dr + 2dθ/dr) ......... equation (ii)

The horizontal path is defined as

r = (2t + 10)

dr/dt = 2, d²r/dt² = 0

Angle Θ is defined by

θ = (1.5t² - 6t)

dθ/dt = 3t, d²θ/dt² = 3

at t = 2

r = (2t + 10) = (2*(2) +10) = 14

but dr/dt = 2m/s and d²r/dt² = 0m/s

θ = (1.5(2)² - 6(2) ) = -6rads

dθ/dt =3(2) - 6 = 0rads

d²θ/dt = 3rad/s²

substituting equation i into equation ii,

Fr = M(d²r/dt² + rdθ/dt) = 1.5 (0-0)

∑F = m[rd²θ/dt² + 2dr/dt * dθ/dt]

∑F = 1.5(14*3+0) = 63N

F = √(Fr² +FΘ²) = √(0² + 63²) = 63N

Why are the temperatures on each of the other terrestrial planets more extreme than earth?

netineya [11]

Other terrestrial planets have more extreme temperatures mainly because of their atmospheres
Explanation:
for example the atmosphere of Venus is composed mainly of carbon dioxide, this carbon dioxide traps the heat or energy from the sun and makes the planet have higher temperatures. where on mars the atmosphere is very thin so it takes in lots of heat and doesn't keep it in very well so it gets very hot and very cold
