The motion of an object undergoing constant acceleration can be modeled by the kinematic equations. One such equation is xf=xi+v

it+12at2 where xf is the final position, xi is the initial position, vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time. Let's say a car starts with an initial speed of 15 m/s, and moves between the 1000 m and 5000 m marks on a roadway in a time of 60 s. What is its acceleration?

Answer:

a = 1.72 m/s²

Explanation:

The given kinematic equation is the 2nd equation of motion. The equation is as follows:

xf = xi + (Vi)(t) + (1/2)(a)t²

where,

xf = the final position = 5000 m

xi = the initial position = 1000 m

Vi = the initial velocity = 15 m/s

t = the time taken = 60 s

a = acceleration = ?

Therefore,

5000 m = 1000 m + (15 m/s)(60 s) + (1/2)(a)(60 s)²

5000 m = 1000 m + 900 m + a(1800 s²)

5000 m = 1900 m + a(1800 s²)

5000 m - 1900 m = a(1800 s²)

a(1800 s²) = 3100 m

a = 3100 m/1800 s²

<u>a = 1.72 m/s²</u>

What is defect of vision

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The vision becomes blurred due to the refractive defects of the eye. There are mainly three common refractive defects of vision. These are (i) myopia or near-sightedness, (ii) Hypermetropia or far – sightedness, and (iii) Presbyopia. These defects can be corrected by the use of suitable spherical lenses.

A ball is thrown straight up from ground level. It passes a 2-m-high window. The bottom of the window is 7.5 m off the ground. T

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$u=14.48m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of window $h=2m$

Height of window off the ground $h_g=7.5m$

Time to fall and drop $t=1.3s$

Generally the Newton's equation motion is mathematically given by

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Where

$h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$2=u1.3-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*1.3^2$

$2=u1.3-8.281$

$u=7.91m/s^2$

Generally the Newton's equation motion is mathematically given by

$2as=v^2-u^2$

Where

$-2gh_g=v^2-u^2$

$-2*9.8*7.5=(7.91)^2-u^2$

$-147=62.5681-u^2$

$u=\sqrt{209.5681}$

$u=14.48m/s$

Therefore the ball’s initial speed

$u=14.48m/s$

Help with this question.....

mariarad [96]

Answer:

$g_{moon}=1.67 [m/s^{2} ]$

Explanation:

The weight of some mass is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration. In this way using the following formula we can find the weight.

$w =m*g\\$

where:

w = weight [N]

m = mass = 0.06 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [N/kg]

Therefore:

$w=0.06*10\\w=0.6[N]$

By Hooke's law we know that the force in a spring can be calculated by means of the following expression.

$F=W\\F = k*x$

where:

k = spring constant [N/m]

x = deformed distance = 6 [cm] = 0.06 [m]

We can find the spring constant.

$k= F/x\\k=0.6/0.06\\k=10 [N/m]$

Since we use the same spring on the moon and the same mass, the constant of the spring does not change, the same goes for the mass.

$F_{moon}=k*0.01\\F = 10*0.01\\F=0.1[N]$

Since this force is equal to the weight, we can now determine the gravitational acceleration.

$F=m*g_{moon}\\g=F/m\\g = 0.1/0.06\\g_{moon} = 1.67[m/s^{2} ]$
