Answer:

The answer to your question is: -6m/s²

Explanation:

Data

vo = 30 m/s

vf = 12 m/s

t = 3 s

a = ?

Formula

vf = vo + at

a = (vt - vo) / t

Process

                a = (12 - 30) / 3                substitution

                a = -18 / 3                         simplify

                a = -6 m/s²                        result, is negative because the car

                                                          is slowing down.

The correct answer is B.
In a velocity vs time graph, a line going up means an increase in velocity, or speed, which correlates to positive acceleration. Negative acceleration means slowing down.

If m=120kg and a=15m/s2, what is the force
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

F= 1800N

Explanation:

the equation for force is F= ma

so plug in the numbers: F= (120)(15)

solve this to get F= 1800N

tip: don't forget to add the units when writing your answer :)

The old rubber boot has two leaks. The top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. What is the velocity of the water coming
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Leak 1 = 3.43 m/s

Leak 2 = 2.42 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. 

Let height H = 0.3m and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

From the figure, the angle of the leak 1 will be approximately equal to 45 degrees. While the leak two can be at 90 degrees.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity, we can calculate the velocity of leak 1 and 2
