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>

Lerok [7]

Answer:

m = 236212 [kg]

Explanation:

The potential energy can be determined by means of the product of mass by gravity by height. In this way, we have the following equation.

P=m*g*h\\

where:

P = potential energy = 3360000000 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 1450 [m]

Now, we can clear the mass from the equation above:

3360000000=m*9.81*1450\\m = 236212 [kg]

I don't know if you need to complete this question or do it otherwise, however, I managed to find on the Internet on several places this completion of your sentence:
<span>Electric current flows through a long rod generating thermal energy at a uniform volumetric rate of q = 2 x 10</span>⁶ W/m³. 
I'm not sure whether that is the answer you were looking for, but that's what I found.

Distinguish between directly proportional and inversely proportional with an example of each
RideAnS [48]

Consider two variables said to be "inversely proportional" to each other. If all other variables are held constant, the magnitude or absolute value of one inversely proportional variable decreases if the other variable increases, while their product (the constant of proportionality k) is always the same.

Which chart correctly describes the properties of electric and magnetic fields?
Serjik [45]
<span>Both electric and magnetic fields exert body forces, meaning they act from a distance. The like charges and poles in both repel; positive charge repels positive and the north pole repels the north pole. For both, the opposite poles/charges attract. Finally, only magnetic fields have poles, and there are two poles, namely the south and north, so they are dipolar. The diagram that represents all of this information correctly is the third.</span>
