No, speed is not a vector. it is scalar.
because it doesn't need direction but need magnitude.
Answer:
i)-6.25m/s
ii)18 metres
iii)26.5 m/s or 95.4 km/hr
Explanation:
Firstly convert 90km/hr to m/s
90 × 1000/3600 = 25m/s
(i) Apply v^2 = u^2 + 2As...where v(0m/s) is the final speed and u(25m/s) is initial speed and also s is the distance moved through(50 metres)
0 = (25)^2 + 2A(50)
0 = 625 + 100A....then moved the other value to one
-625 = 100A
Hence A = -6.25m/s^2(where the negative just tells us that its deceleration)
(ii) Firstly convert 54km/hr to m/s
In which this is 54 × 1000/3600 = 15m/s
then apply the same formula as that in (i)
0 = (15)^2 + 2(-6.25)s
-225 = -12.5s
Hence the stopping distance = 18metres
(iii) Apply the same formula and always remember that the deceleration values is the same throughout this question
0 = u^2 + 2(-6.25)(56)
u^2 = 700
Hence the speed that the car was travelling at is the,square root of 700 = 26.5m/s
In km/hr....26.5 × 3600/1000 = 95.4 km/hr
Answer:
(a) The constants required describing the rod's density are B=2.6 and C=1.325.
(b) The mass of the road can be found using 
Explanation:
(a) Since the density variation is linear and the coordinate x begins at the low-density end of the rod, we have a density given by
recalling that the coordinate x is measured in centimeters.
(b) The mass of the rod can be found by having into account the density, which is x-dependent, and the volume differential for the rod:
,
hence, the mass of the rod is 126.6 g.
