Answer:

Explanation:

The decibel or decibel, is a unit that relates two values of sound pressure, and electrical power. the base unit is the bel, but given the amplitude but for practicality, a submultiple, the decibel, is used. It is a scalar expression .

Zero belios is the reference value used as a base, hence a bel is equivalent to 10 decibels and means that there is a power increase of 10 times over the reference value.

A lemon with mass 0.3 kg falls out of a tree from a height of 1.8 m. How much mechanical energy does the lemon have just before

Zina [86]

Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. It can either be kinetics or potential. In this problem you know it starting position so you can calculate it's potential energy (PE):

<span>PE=mass∗gravity∗height=0.3kg∗9.8m/s2∗1.8m=?

</span>The answer will typically be given in joules:

1J=kg∗m2s2 Could be wrong... But I believe it is 5.3...? as a final product.

Calculate the acceleration using the formula acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time.

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

10 km/hr/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

For the car in this problem:

u = 0

$v=60 km/h$

t = 6 s

Substituting in the equation,

$a=\frac{60 km/h-0}{6s}=10 km/h/s$

What is the acceleration of the the object during the first 4 seconds?

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second

Explanation:

What this formula is telling us is that if we know the acceleration of an object, and the ... we can plug in our acceleration of 12.5 m/s2 for a, and 4 seconds for t.

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second
