The cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration exerted by an object is the measure of change in speed or velocity of that object with respect to time. So the initial and final velocities play a major role in determining the acceleration of the cyclist. As here the initial velocity of the cyclist is the speed at rest and that is given as 0 m/s. Then after 3 seconds, the velocity of the cyclist changes to 9 m/s.

Then acceleration = change in velocity/Time.

Acceleration = \frac{Change in velocity}{Time taken}

Acceleration = (9-0)/3=9/3=3 m/s².

So the cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 9 m/s in 3 seconds with an acceleration of 3 m/s².

Let the resistance of an electrical component remain constant while the potential difference across the two ends of the componen
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The current through it will also decrease to half of its former value because according to Ohm's law the current flowing through a resistor is directly proportional to the potential difference applied across its ends provided that the temperature and some other necessary conditions remain constant.

This is mathematically represented as follows;

V=IR.........(1)

The current is thus given as

I=\frac{V}{R}..............(2)

if R is constant and V is reduced to half, then we have the following;

I=\frac{V/2}{R}

Simplifying further we obtain

I=\frac{V}{2R}...........(3)

Equation (3) shows that the current I is also reduced to half.

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Acceleration of Sea Lion is 4.41 g

This is 49% of maximum jet acceleration given as a = 9g

Explanation:

As we know that the radius of the circular loop is given as

R = 0.37 m

The speed of the fish is given as

v = 4 m/s

Now the centripetal acceleration of the sea lion is given as

a_c = \frac{v^2}{R}

a_c = \frac{4^2}{0.37}

a_c = 43.2 m/s^2

as we know that

g = 9.8 m/s^2

so we have

a = 4.41 g

Now Percentage of this acceleration wrt maximum jet acceleration is given as

P = \frac{4.41 g}{9g} \times 100

P = 49%

Can someone please help? Thank u!
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

B. 7.5 m/s^2

Explanation:

To find acceleration you need to subtract the final velocity by the starting velocity then divide that by the time

a= v-v/t

a= 60-0/8

a= 60/8

a=7.5 m/s^2
