A car slows down from speed of 72

Physics
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]2 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 72km/hr

Final velocity  = 0km/hr

Time taken  = 25s

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, convert km/hr to m/s;

           1000m = 1km

           3600s = 1hr

  72km/hr;

          1km/hr  = 0.278m/s

         72km/hr = 0.278 x 72  = 20.02m/s

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the time taken;

       Acceleration = \frac{final velocity - initial velocity }{time}  

       Acceleration  = \frac{0 - 20.02}{25}   = -0.8m/s

The car  is actually decelerating at a rate of 0.8m/s

If a force of 19 N is applied to a crate to push it 23 m, how much work is done on the crate by the force?
swat32

Answer:

437 Joules

Explanation:

Use the formula for work directly

(work) = (force) x (displacement)

to get

(work) = (19 N) x (23 m) = 437 Joules

Suppose a tank filled with water has a liquid column with a height of 10 meters. If the area is 2 square meters (2 m²), what's t
Vesna [10]

Answer:

196000 N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Height (h) = 10 m

Area (A) = 2 m²

Force (F) =.?

Next, we shall determine the pressure in the tank.

This can be obtained as follow:

P = dgh

Where

P is the pressure.

d is the density of the liquid.

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is the height.

Height (h) = 10 m

Density (d) of water = 1000 kg/m³

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Pressure (P) =...?

P = dgh

P = 1000 × 9.8 × 10

P = 98000 N/m²

Therefore, the pressure acting on the tank is 98000 N/m²

Finally, we shall determine the force of gravity acting on the column of water as follow:

Area (A) = 2 m²

Pressure (P) = 98000 N/m²

Force (F) =.?

Pressure (P) = Force (F) /Area (A)

P = F /A

98000 = F/ 2

Cross multiply

F = 98000 × 2

F = 196000 N

Therefore, the force of gravity acting on the column of water is 196000 N

the sample of an ideal gas is in a tank of constant volume the sample absorbs heat energy so that its temperature changes from 3
valkas [14]

Answer:

Explanation

Given that

Temperature changes from

Initial temperature T1 = 300K

Final temperature T2 = 600K

v1 = average speed of gas molecule before absorption of heat

v2 = average speed of gas molecule after absorption of heat

Ratio v2/v1 =?

Related to average speed,

Vrms = √(3RT/M)

We will take 3, T and M as constant,

Then,

Vrms ∝ √T

Then,

Vrms / √T = k

So,

V1 / √T1 = V2 / √T2

Cross multiply

V1 • √T2 = V2 • √T1

Make V2 / V1 subject of formula

V2 / V1 = √T2 / √ T1

V2 / V1 = √600 / √300

We know from indices that

√a / √b = √(a/b)

Then,

V2 / V1 = √(600 / 300)

V2 / V1 = √2

Then, The ratio v2 / v1 is √2

So, if T is double, then, V increases by a factor of √2
