Answer:

a = (v² – v₀²)/ 2(s – s₀)

Explanation:

v² = v₀² + 2a (s – s₀)

We can make 'a' the subject of the above expression as follow:

v² = v₀² + 2a (s – s₀)

Subtract v₀² from both side

v² – v₀² = v₀² + 2a (s – s₀) – v₀²

v² – v₀² = v₀² – v₀² + 2a (s – s₀)

v² – v₀² = 2a (s – s₀)

Divide both side by (s – s₀)

(v² – v₀²)/ (s – s₀) = 2a

Divide both side by 2

(v² – v₀²)/ (s – s₀) ÷ 2 = a

(v² – v₀²)/ (s – s₀) × 1/2 = a

(v² – v₀²)/ 2(s – s₀) = a

a = (v² – v₀²)/ 2(s – s₀)

A 1500 kg car traveling at 15.0 m/s to the south collides with a 4500 kg truck that is at rest at a stopligt. The car comes to a

Burka [1]

Answer:

5 m/s, moving to the South.

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of car, m = 1500 kg

Initial velocity of car, u = 15 m/s

Mass of truck, M = 4500 kg

Initial velocity of truck, v = 0 m/s (Truck is at rest)

Final velocity of car, U = 0 m/s (Car comes to a stop)

Final velocity of truck = V

Because the collision is elastic, we can apply the principle of conservation of momentum, we have that:

Total initial momentum = Total final momentum

m*u + M*U = m*v + M*V

(1500 * 15) + (4500 * 0) = (1500 * 0) + (4500 * V)

22500 + 0 = 0 + 00V

=> V = 22500/4500

V = 5 m/s

The velocity carries a positive sign, hence, it's moving in the same direction as the car was moving initially.

That is, it's moving to the South.

For a given wave IF frequency doubles the wavelength

motikmotik

Answer:

C is halved

Explanation:

The frequency and the wavelength of a wave are related by the equation:

$v=f\lambda$

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

From the equation above, we see that for a given wave, if the wave is travelling in the same medium (and so, its speed is not changing), then the frequency and the wavelength are inversely proportional to each other.

Therefore, if the frequency doubles, the wavelength will halve in order to keep the speed constant:

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}\\\lambda' = \frac{v}{f'}=\frac{v}{2f}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{v}{f})=\frac{\lambda}{2}$

A 5 kg block is being pushed horizontally across a level surface at a constant velocity. What is the magnitude of the Normal for

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

50 N.

Explanation:

On top of a horizontal surface, the normal force acting on an object is equivalent to the force of gravity acting on the object. That is:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} F_N = F_g & = ma \\ & = mg\end{aligned}$

The mass of the block is 5 kg and the given force due to gravity is 10 N/kg. Substitute and evaluate:

$\displaystyle F_N = F_g = (5\text{ kg})(10 \text{ N/kg}) = 50 \text{ N}$

In conclusion, the normal force acting on the block is 50 N.

Jack is planning an experiment to see how temperature can affect the reproduction rate of a certain species of bacteria. Jack is

stealth61 [152]

<span>The answer is C. temperature, light level, species of bacteria. All three variables are considerations regarding the reproduction rate of the bacteria. The other three answer choices can be eliminated easily because they each contain at least one irrelevant variable. In particular, all three contain a variable that makes reference to Jack's personal characteristics. These do not have any impact on the experiment and readily stand out to disqualify the entire answer choice.</span>
