Answer:
D. demand; increased
Explanation:
Demand is how much people want it.
If the distance around the equator is reduced by half, then the radius is also reduced by half.
Since the acceleration due to gravity is proportional to 1/(radius²),
the acceleration changes by a factor of 1/(1/2)² = 1/(1/4) = <em>4 </em>.
The acceleration due to gravity ... and also the weight of everything on Earth ...
becomes <em>4 times what it is now</em>.
Answer:
a) 19440 km/h²
b) 10 sec
Explanation:
v₀ = initial velocity of the car = 45 km/h
v = final velocity achieved by the car = 99 km/h
d = distance traveled by the car while accelerating = 0.2 km
a = acceleration of the car
Using the kinematics equation
v² = v₀² + 2 a d
99² = 45² + 2 a (0.2)
a = 19440 km/h²
b)
t = time required to reach the final velocity
Using the kinematics equation
v = v₀ + a t
99 = 45 + (19440) t
t = 0.00278 h
t = 0.00278 x 3600 sec
t = 10 sec
