A negative velocity, approaching zero, represents a negative acceleration. True or False

Physics
1 answer:
ruslelena [56]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Lets assume our positive direction to the right (this reasoning works for any direction). A negative velocity would then be then directed to the left. If it varies as such that it aproaches to zero, it means that the variation is directed to the right, and that is where the direction of the acceleration must be pointing. In other words, its losing its velocity, so the acceleration must point opposite to the velocity. Then it means the acceleration is positive.

A student is bicycling north along Main Street to school. Another student is timing the bicycling student in order to determine
MatroZZZ [7]

The average velocity is -4.17 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of a body is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement of the body

t is the time elapsed

For the student in this problem, we have:

Initial position: x_i = 450 m

Final position: x_f = 200 m

So the displacement is

d=x_f -x_i = 200 - 450 = -250 m

The time elapsed is

t = 60 s

Therefore, the average velocity is

v=\frac{-250}{60}=-4.17 m/s

Where the negative sign means the student is moving towards the origin.

What describes Newton’s law of universal gravitation
VikaD [51]

Newton's law of universal gravitation gives the gravitational force between two objects:

F = GMm/r²

F = gravitational force, G = gravitational constant, M & m are the masses of the two objects, r = distance between the objects

After fertilization in the fallopian tube, how many days will the zygote travel before arriving at uterus?.
natta225 [31]

After fertilization in the fallopian tube, It will take 6-12 days for the zygote to travel before arriving at the uterus.

<h3>What is a zygote?</h3>

A zygote is, generally speaking, a cell created by the fusion of two gametes; the growing person is created from such a cell.

It takes the zygote around 6–12 days following fertilization in the fallopian tube for the fertilized egg to travel to the uterus and attach to the uterus, a process known as implantation.

Hence It will take 6-12 days for the zygote to travel before arriving at the uterus.

To learn more about the zygote refer;

If the sun became cooler but kept the same size it would emit
jek_recluse [69]
If the sun would become cooler having constant size, it would emit less ultraviolet light and less visible light than what it currently gives to earth. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Thank you for posting here.
