In which one of the following situations does a car have a WESTWARD acceleration? The car travels westward and slows down. The c
1 answer:
Explanation:
Let east direction is negative and west direction is positive. The acceleration of an object is given by :
Where
v is the final speed
u is the initial speed
t is the time taken
As the car decelerates, the final speed of the car is less as compared to the initial speed. As a result, its acceleration is negative. It means the car travels eastward and slows down. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:
a) 37.8 W
b) 2 Nm
Explanation:
180 g = 0.18 kg
We can also convert 180 revolution per minute to standard angular velocity unit knowing that each revolution is 2π and 1 minute equals to 60 seconds
180 rpm = 180*2π/60 = 18.85 rad/s
We can use the heat specific equation to find the rate of heat exchange of the steel drill and block:
Since the entire mechanical work is used up in producing heat, we can conclude that the rate of work is also 37.8 J/s, or 37.8 W
The torque T required to drill can be calculated using the work equation
Answer:
Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g
Explanation:
For an isolated system as given the energy lost and gains in the system will be zero therefore sum of all transfer of energy will be zero,as the temperature will also remain same
A specific heat formula is given as
Energy Change = Mass of liquid x Specific Heat Capacity x Change in temperature
Q = m×c×ΔT
Heat gain by aluminium + heat lost by copper = 0 (1)
For Aluminium:
Q =
Q = m x 17.94 joule
For Copper:
Q= 4996.53 Joule
from eq 1
m x 17.94 = 4996.53
Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g
