Answer: a. -720m/s^2
b. Yes, airbags will deploy
Explanation:
The formula for acceleration is:
= (Final velocity - Initial velocity)/Time
Final velocity = 0m/s
Initial velocity = 36m/s
Time taken = 0.05s
= (Final velocity - Initial velocity)/Time
= (0 - 36)/0.05
= -36/0.05
= -720m/s^2.
Since it's negative, it shows that there was a deceleration.
2. Yes the airbag will deploy since the acceleration gotten is more than -600 m/s^2.
Answer:
C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added
Explanation:
The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.
Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.
- Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
- As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
- They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
- Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
- Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
- This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas
Kinetic energy is energy that is in motion, thats all I remember
So there is a decimal after the last zero and it looks like this 5098000. You have to move the decimal point six back to get in between the five and the zero which looks like this 5.098000
<span>Scientific notation is the way that scientists easily handle very large numbers or very small numbers. For example, instead of writing 0.0000000056, we write 5.6 x 10^<span>9</span>.</span>
Being that we moved the decimal six places back the answer is 5.098 x 10^6
So the result is not biased or affected in some way
