GiveN:
- Initial velocity = 9.8 m/s²
- Accleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s²
- Time taken = 1 s
To FinD:
- Final velocity of the ball?
Step-by-step Explanation:
Using the first Equation of motion,
⇒ v = u + gt
⇒ v = 9.8 + -9.8(1)
⇒ v = 0 m/s
The final velocity is hence <u>0</u><u> </u><u>m</u><u>/</u><u>s</u><u>.</u>
<h3>
Note:</h3>
- While solving questions of under gravity motions using equations of motion, remember the sign convection to avoid mistakes.
- You can consider positive above the ground and negative for towards it.
Answer:
speed = 7.9 m/s
Explanation:
speed = total distance / time taken
speed = 300 / 38
speed = 7.89473684 m/s
to the nearest tenth
speed = 7.9 m/s
The electrostatic force between two charges q1 and q2 is given by
where
is the Coulomb's constant and r is the distance between the two charges.
If we use F=19.2 N and q1=q2=-3.0 C, we can find the value of r, the distance between the two charges by re-arranging the previous formula:
Answer:
Explanation:
Δ
- Δ
is the difference in velocity before and after a given time. 
is the acceleration of the object during this time. 
is time
is another way to write this equation.
- The Δ symbol represents "the difference between the initial and final values of a magnitude or vector", so Δ
- I rearranged this equation to solve for , but this is a step that you don't need to take, it's just good to get in the habit of doing this.
- Plug in the given values. Note that our final velocity is
, because the car travels until at <em>rest</em>.
![a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}\\a=\frac{(0)-[(17.1\frac{miles}{hour} )(\frac{hour}{3600s})(\frac{1609.34m}{mile})]}{9.7s}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%3D%5Cfrac%7Bv_f-v_i%7D%7Bt%7D%5C%5Ca%3D%5Cfrac%7B%280%29-%5B%2817.1%5Cfrac%7Bmiles%7D%7Bhour%7D%20%29%28%5Cfrac%7Bhour%7D%7B3600s%7D%29%28%5Cfrac%7B1609.34m%7D%7Bmile%7D%29%5D%7D%7B9.7s%7D)
- Our initial velocity is in mph, something not in standard units, so if not changed, you will get an incorrect answer. What you need to do is cancel out the units your prior value had using division and multiplication, and at the same time multiply and divide the correct numbers and units into your equation. Or look up a converter.
![a=\frac{(0)-[(17.1\frac{miles}{hour} )(\frac{hour}{3600s})(\frac{1609.34m}{mile})]}{9.7s}\\a=\frac{0m/s-7.6m/s}{9.7s} \\a=\frac{-7.6m/s}{9.7s}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%3D%5Cfrac%7B%280%29-%5B%2817.1%5Cfrac%7Bmiles%7D%7Bhour%7D%20%29%28%5Cfrac%7Bhour%7D%7B3600s%7D%29%28%5Cfrac%7B1609.34m%7D%7Bmile%7D%29%5D%7D%7B9.7s%7D%5C%5Ca%3D%5Cfrac%7B0m%2Fs-7.6m%2Fs%7D%7B9.7s%7D%20%5C%5Ca%3D%5Cfrac%7B-7.6m%2Fs%7D%7B9.7s%7D)
- if you converted correctly, your answer for
will be ≅ 
. - Now divide. Notice that the units for acceleration are
or <em>meters per second, per second</em>.
- Our final answer is <em>negative </em>because the car is <em>slowing down</em>. Do not square this answer as the square symbol only applies to the units, not the magnitude.
