Answer:

Acceleration, a=-1.5\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial velocity of the car, u = 10 m/s (in right)

Final velocity of the car, v = -5 m/s (in left)  

Time taken, t = 10 s

Let a is the acceleration of the car. It can be calculated using the equation of kinematics. The equation is as :

v=u+at

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}

a=\dfrac{-5-10}{10}    

a=-1.5\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is -1.5\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

A amusement park moves riders in a circle at a rate of 6.0m/s if the radius is 9.0 meters what is the acceleration of the ride
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Centripetal acceleration is (speed-squared) / (radius)

CA = (6 m/s)² / (9 m)

CA = (36 m²/s²) / (9 m)

CA = (36/9) (m²/m·s²)

<em>Centripetal acceleration = 4 m/s²</em>

Answer:

Contemporary light microscopes are able to magnify objects up to about a thousand times. Since most cells are between 1 and 100 μm in diameter, they can be observed by light microscopy, as can some of the larger subcellular organelles, such as nuclei, chloroplasts, and mitochondria.

A cell is the smallest unit of a living thing. A living thing, whether made of one cell (like bacteria) or many cells (like a human), is called an organism. Thus, cells are the basic building blocks of all organisms.

Cells have many structures inside of them called organelles. These organelles are like the organs in a human and they help the cell stay alive. Each organelle has it's own specific function to help the cell survive. The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell directs the cell's activities and stores DNA.

If the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function.
