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!

Two blocks of clay, one of mass 1.00 kg and one of mass 7.00 kg, undergo a completely inelastic collision. Before the collision
RideAnS [48]

Answer:8 m/s

Explanation:

Given

m_1=1 kg

m_2=7 kg

kinetic Energy of m_1=32 J

initially m_2 is at rest and let say m_1 is moving with velocity u

kinetic Energy of m_1 is =\frac{m_1u^2}{2}=32

u^2=64

u=8 m/s

In Completely inelastic collision both mass stick together and move with common velocity

Suppose v is the common velocity

m_1u+0=(m_1+m_2)v

v=\frac{1\times 8}{1+7}=1 m/s

therefore Final velocity with which both blocks moves is 1 m/s

The following three hot samples have the same temperature. The same amount of heat is removed from each sample. Which one experi
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Smallest drop: Water

Largest drop: Dirt

Explanation:

The heat needed to change the temperature of a sample is:

Q=cm\Delta T (1)

with Q the heat (added(+) or removed(-)), c specific heat, m the mass and \Delta T the change in temperature of the sample. So, if we solve (1) for

Sample A:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{4186*4.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{16744}

Sample B:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{2700*2.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{5400}

Sample C:

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{cm} =\frac{Q}{1050*9.0}

\Delta T=-\frac{Q}{9450}

Note that the numbers 16744, 5400, 9450 are in the denominator of the expression -\frac{Q}{cm} that gives the drop on temperature. so, if Q is the same for the three samples the smallest denominator gives the largest drop and vice versa.

So, the smallest drop is Sample A and the largest is Sample C.

(Important: The minus sign of \Delta T implies the temperature is dropping)

What is a Non-Example of Newton's 1st law?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Say a 14 year old girl was at a construction site and she was asked to move something like a 10,000 pound brick( one brick). She would be acting on it as the unbalanced force but they would still not change their position.

so to say the girl would be doing everything she could to move that brick but the brick would still be in that same spot so the unbalanced force (the girl) would be acting on the thing that was at rest but it wouldn't move.

so the unbalanced force would not really be acting on the thing at rest; even though the unbalanced force was doing something to the brick.

( just think about it and you will eventually get it...just imagine in your head...)
