First, create an illustration of the motion of the two cars as shown in the attached picture. The essential equations used is
For constant acceleration:
a = v,final - v,initial /t
The solutions is as follows:
a = v,final - v,initial /t
3.8 = (v - 0)/2.8 s
v = 10.64 m/s After 2.8 seconds, the speed of the blue car is 10.64 m/s.
Answer:
c. because A will land first becuase its heavier :)
Explanation:
Answer: Things continue doing what they are doing unless a force is applied to it. Objects have a natural tendency to resist change. This is INERTIA. Heavier objects (objects with more mass) are more difficult to move and stop. Heavier objects (greater mass) resist change more than lighter objects, so true
Explanation:
Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop. The Cadillac has more of a tendency to stay stationary (or continue moving), and resist a change in motion than a bicycle.
This one is simple :)
use the equation F = ma and then re-arrange for a.
a = F / m
But there is a trick, so be careful. the question gives you wind resistance. Simply subtract the wind resistance from the thrust of the rocket to get the net force upward.
So,
