First you must convert Km/hr to m/s. 90 km/hr equals 25m/s (this can be done through a conversion table by plugging in the conversion values). Then you need to see what was given:
vi (initial velocity)= 0m/s
vf (final velocity= 25m/s (90km/hr)
t (time)= 10s

Next you should find an equation that requires only the values you know and gives you the value you're looking for. Sometimes that requires two equations to be used, but in this case you only need one. The best equation for this would be a=(vf-vi)/t. Finally, plug in your values (a=(25-0)/10) to get your answer which would be 2.5m/s^2. Hope this helped!

What is difference between non uniform and uniform circular motion?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The object in a uniform motion covers same distances in an equal time period. Objects in a non-uniform motion cover dissimilar distances in an equal time period.

Explanation:

The speed of the object traveling in uniform motion is constant, the actual speed and the average speed of the moving body is same.

A ball rolls forward in the grass slowing down as it rolls?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Yes it does, uh huh.  It slows down as it rolls.  That's a fact.

In order for the ball to roll forward, it has to push grass out of the way.  That takes energy.  To bend each blade of grass out of its way, the ball has to use a tiny bit of the kinetic energy that it has, so it gradually runs out of kinetic energy.  When its kinetic energy is all gone, it stops moving.

What is the relationship between the applied force of a hanging mass on a spring and the spring force of the spring?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.

Explanation:

The relationship between these two forces can be found with Newton's second law.

        F_{e} - W = m a

        K x - m g = m a

We see that elastic force and weight are related to the acceleration of the System.

If a harmonic movement is desired, an extra force that increases the elastic force is applied, but to begin the movement this force is eliminated, in general , if the relationship between this external and elastic force is desired, the only requirement is that it be small for harmonic movement to occur
