Answer:-

-1 m/s^2

Explanation:

The average acceleration is given by dividing the change in velocity by change in time;

a_f=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}

=\frac{(0-11.2)}{(11.2-0)}=-1 m/s^2

the point to be noted here is if the velocity is to the left we substitute it with a negative sign and if it is to the right we substitute it with a positive sign.

How long does it take an object to travel 375 m at a rate of 25 m/s?
Leni [432]

Answer:

15s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance traveled  = 375m

Speed = 25m/s

Unknown:

Time taken = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we make time the subject of the speed equation.

    Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}  

  Time  = \frac{distance}{speed}  

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

  Time  = \frac{375}{25}   = 15s

he tune-up specifications of a car call for the spark plugs to be tightened to a torque of 47 N⋅m . You plan to tighten the plug
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

207.4 N

Explanation:

The torque \tau  on a body is

\tau = r* F  where r is the radius vector from the point of rotation to the point at which force F is applied.

The product of r and F is equal to the product of magnitude of r and F multiplied by the sine of angle between both vectors.

Therefore, torque is also given by

\tau = rF\sin \theta

Where \theta is the angle between r and F.

Use the expression of torque.

Substitute L for r in the equation \tau = rF\sin \theta

\tau = LF\sin \theta

Where L is the length of the wrench.

Making F the subject

F = \frac{\tau }{{L\sin \theta }}

Force required to pull the wrench is given as,

F = \frac{\tau }{{L\sin \theta }}

Substitute 47{\rm{ N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}  for \tau, 25 cm for L, and 115o for \theta  

\begin{array}{c}\\F = \frac{{47{\rm{ N}} \cdot {\rm{m}}}}{{\left( {25{\rm{ cm}}} \right)\sin {{115}^{\rm{o}}}}}\left( {\frac{{1{\rm{ cm}}}}{{{{10}^{ - 2}}{\rm{ m}}}}} \right)\\\\ = 207.435{\rm{ N}}\\\\ \approx 207.4{\rm{ N}}\\\end{array}

The conversion of sugar to energy in the presence of oxygen is
Ahat [919]

Answer:

A. respiration.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be defined as a series of metabolic reactions that typically occur in cells so as to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). During cellular respiration, high energy intermediates are created that can then be oxidized to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Therefore, the intermediary products are produced at the glycolysis and citric acid cycle stage.

Additionally, mitochondria provides all the energy required in the cell by transforming energy forms through series of chemical reactions; breaking down of glucose into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) used for providing energy for cellular activities in the body of living organisms.

Basically, oxygen goes into the body of a living organism such as plants, humans and animals when they breathe while glucose is absorbed by the body when they eat.

Hence, the conversion of sugar to energy in the presence of oxygen is respiration.
