What relationship exists between speed, velocity, and acceleration

1 answer:

6 0

Velocity is speed and the direction of the speed. Acceleration is the rate at which Velocity is changing, and the direction in which it's changing.

11. A cyclist accelerates from 0 m/s to 10 m/s in 3 seconds. What is his acceleration ? Is this acceleration higher than that of

Marat540 [252]

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

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

t = time taken

the acceleration of the cyclist is

$\frac{10 - 0}{3} = 3.333333....$

approximately 3.33 m/s^2

the acceleration of the car is

$\frac{40 - 0 }{8} = 5.0$

5.0 m/s^2

$5.0 > 3.33 \\ so \: the \: answer \: is \: no$

Giving quadrilateral a(2,-1 ) b ( 1,3) c(6,5) d(7,1) you want to prove that it is a parallelogram by showing opposite sides are

solong [7]

Answer:

Opposite sides are congruent (AB = DC).

Opposite angels are congruent (D = B).

Consecutive angles are supplementary (A + D = 180°).

If one angle is right, then all angles are right.

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

Each diagonal of a parallelogram separates it into two congruent triangles.

A car is traveling at 15 m/sm/s . Part A How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.21 m/s

Explanation:

Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.

Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.

Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.

Let v₂ represent the final velocity.

Next, the data obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s

Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E

Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E

Final velocity (v₂) =?

Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)

KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²

E /15² = 2E/v₂²

E/225 = 2E/v₂²

Cross multiply

E × v₂² = 225 × 2E

E × v₂² = 450E

Divide both side by E

v₂² = 450E /E

v₂² = 450

Take the square root of both side.

v₂ = √450

v₂ = 21.21 m/s

Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

A pair of slits separated by 1 mm, are illuminated with monochromatic light of wavelength 411 nm. The light falls on a screen 1.

Ilya [14]

Answer:

$t = 0.192 \mu m$

Explanation:

Path difference due to a transparent slab is given as

$\Delta x = (\mu - 1) t$

here we know that

$\mu = 1.79$

now total shift in the bright fringe is given as

$Shift = \frac{D(\mu - 1)t}{d}$

Also we know that the fringe width of maximum intensity is given as

$\delta x = \frac{\lambda D}{d}$

now we have

$\frac{D}{d} = \frac{\delta x}{\lambda}$

now the shift is given as

$Shift = \frac{(\mu - 1) t \delta x}{\lambda}$

given that the shift is

$Shift = 0.37 \delta x$

here we have

$0.37 \delta x = \frac{(\mu - 1) t \delta x}{\lambda}$

now plug in all values in it

$0.37 = \frac{(1.79 - 1) t}{411 \times 10^{-9}}$

$t = 0.192 \times 10^{-6} m$

$t = 0.192 \mu m$
