Answer: 7.0m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity of a body with respect to time.

Mathematically, Acceleration = Change in velocity/time

Change in velocity = Final velocity (v) - Initial velocity(u)

Acceleration = Final velocity - Initial velocity/time taken i.e a = v-u/t

Since the body starts from rest, its initial velocity will be zero i.e u = 0m/s

Final velocity/speed = ?

Acceleration = 2.0m/s²

Time taken = 3.5seconds

Substituting this values into the acceleration formula, we have;

2.0 = v - 0/3.5

7.0 = v

This shows that the final speed of the skater will be 7.0m/s

Okay, so lets look at the equation.

The Skate accelerates at 2.0m/s².  This can confuse some people but basically all you need to do is plug in the seconds.

So lets do 1 second.  It would be 2.0m/1² which is 2.0m.

Lets do 2 seconds.  It would be 2.0m/2² which is 0.5m.

Lets do 3 seconds.  It would be 2.0m/3² which is 0.222m

Lets do 3.5 seconds which is about 0.163m.

Add those together and you get 2.885m.

This may be wrong but this is what I got given what you gave (that its seconds squared).

Determine whether the following statements are true or false and give an explanation or counter example. a. If the acceleration
tester [92]

Answer:

If the acceleration of an object remains​ constant, then its velocity is constant. False

If the acceleration of an object moving along a line is always​ 0, then its velocity is constant. True

It is impossible for the instantaneous velocity at all times aless than or equalstless than or equalsb to equal the average velocity over the interval aless than or equalstless than or equalsb. True

A moving object can have negative acceleration and increasing speed. False

Explanation:

First of all, before we can talk of acceleration, then there must be a change in velocity. If the velocity of a body is constant, then there will not be any acceleration at all.

If the acceleration is zero, then there is no change in velocity, the velocity is constant.

The instantaneous velocity is always changing all through the motion hence it cannot be determined at all times to equal the average velocity.

If the acceleration is negative, it simply means that the velocity is decreasing with time. Hence there can't be a negative acceleration and increasing velocity.

In a Rutherford scattering experiment, an alpha particle is accelerated toward a stationary silver nucleus. If the closest appro
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Initial Kinetic energy of alpha particle is  9.45x10⁻¹³ J .

Explanation:

The distance at which the initial kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the potential energy is known as closest distance. As it is Rutherford scattering, so it is a coulomb potential energy.

Let K be the initial kinetic energy of alpha particle and r be the closest approach distance. So,

Initial Kinetic Energy = Coulomb Potential Energy

K = \frac{k\times2e\times{Ze}}{r }

Here, k is constant, e is charge of electron and Z is the atomic number of silver.

Put 9x10⁹ N m²/C² for k, 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C for e, 47 for Z and 22.9x10⁻¹⁵ m for r in the above equation.

K = \frac{9\times10^{9}\times{1.6}\times10^{-19}\times{1.6}\times10^{-19}\times2\times47}{22.9\times10^{-15} }

K = 9.45x10⁻¹³ J
