Pls help A car starts from rest and gains a velocity of 20m/s in 10 seconds calculate its acceleration and the distance covered

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Acceleration \ (a) = 2 \ m/s^{2}}$

$\boxed{\sf Distance \ covered \ (s) = 100 \ m}$

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 20 m/s

Time taken (t) = 10 sec

To Find:

(i) Acceleration (a)

(ii) Distance covered (s)

Explanation:

$\sf (i) \ From \ 1^{st} \ equation \ of \ motion:$

$\sf \implies v = u + at$

$\sf \implies 20 = 0 + a(10)$

$\sf \implies 10a = 20$

$\sf \implies \frac{10a}{10} = \frac{20}{10}$

$\sf \implies a = 2 \: m/ {s}^{2}$

$\sf (ii) \ From \ 2^{nd} \ equation \ of \ motion:$

$\sf \implies s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = (0)(10) + \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times {(10)}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}} \times \cancel{2} \times {(10)}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = {10}^{2}$

$\sf \implies s = 100 \: m$

What are organelles? Describe the role of two organelles within the cell.

zloy xaker [14]

Organelles are small structures found in cells that carry out certain tasks. Two examples of organelles are the Nucleus and the Mitochondria. Think of the nucleus as the brain of its cell, it controls activities and it contains a majority of the cells genetic material. The mitochondria is the part of the cells tasked with cellular respiration, which is the act of taking nutrients from a cell and turning it into energy.

Which is the electric potential energy of a charged particle divided by its charge?Electric fieldelectric field lineelectric pot

Dahasolnce [82]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

electric potential

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Electric potential is the electric potential energy per unit charge.

Mathematically; V =PE/q

Where; PE is the electric potential energy, V is the electric potential and q is the charge.

Electric potential is more commonly known as voltage. If you know the potential at a point, and you then place a charge at that point, the potential energy associated with that charge in that potential is simply the charge multiplied by the potential.

A 1000.kg car moving at north at 100. km/hr brakes to a stop in 50. m within a uniform acceleration. what are magnitude and dire

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Force=7.71KN in the opposite direction

Explanation:

Given the mass of the car(M)=1000Kg

The initial speed of the car(u)=100km/hr

we know that 1km/hr=5/18 m/sec

100km/hr=100*5/18 m/sec=27.77m/sec

the distance travelled before it stops (s)=50m

let the acceleration of the car be a

The final velocity of the car is 0.

we know that $v^{2}-u^{2}=2as$

$0^{2}-27.77^{2}=2(-a)(50)$

a=7.712m/ $sec^{2}$

We know that F=Ma

F=1000* 7.712=7712N=7.71KN

Sort these statements about machines based on whether they are correct or incorrect.

insens350 [35]

as well.

1. Correct

Explanation

An inclined plane is a flat surface which lie at an angle, Its one end is higher than the other this inclined plane is used as an aid for raising or lowering a load. Staircase also work in similar manner

2. Correct

Explanation

yes all simple machine have a fulcrum

3. Incorrect

Explanation

when we swim that time our arms and legs 'push' the water due to which water displaced in backward direction so her we applied a positive work on the water. According to Newton's Third Law,same magnitude of work is done by water in opposite direction to push us back on our arms and legs. therefore water also does positive work on us.

4. incorrect

Explanation

The force exerted by a machine on an object is input force

5. Incorrect

Explanation

when the input force is greater than the output force that time machine have mechanical advantage of less than 1.
