Answer:

<em>not move as the forces have an equal strength acting at opposite directions, these forces cancel each other out, hence why the object cant move</em>

Answer:

10389.6 J

Explanation:

Power is the rate of doing work with respect to time, its S.I unit is in watts but it can also be expressed in J/s. Power is calculated using the formula:

$Power=\frac{energy}{time}$

Power is also the rate at which energy is used per second.

Energy is the capacity to do work and it is measured in joules (J).

Power = current × voltage = 7.4 A × 3 V = 22.2 W

$Energy=power*time\\\\time=7.8\ min=7.8*60\ s=468\ s\\\\Energy=22.2*468\\\\Energy=10389.6\ J$

On a straight road, a car speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s over a 5 second interval and a truck slows at a const

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the car speeds up at a constant rate, we can use the kinematic equation for distance (assuming that the initial position is x=0, and choosing t₀ =0), as follows:

$x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} (1)$

Since the car starts from rest, v₀ =0.
We know the value of t = 5 sec., but we need to find the value of a.
Applying the definition of acceleration, as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, and remembering that v₀ = 0 and t₀ =0, we can solve for a, as follows:

$a_{c} =\frac{v_{fc}}{t} = \frac{20m/s}{5s} = 4 m/s2 (2)$

Replacing a and t in (1):

$x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 4 m/s2*(5s)^{2} = 50.0 m. (3)$

Now, if the truck slows down at a constant rate also, we can use (1) again, noting that v₀ is not equal to zero anymore.
Since we have the values of vf (it's zero because the truck stops), v₀, and t, we can find the new value of a, as follows:

$a_{t} =\frac{-v_{to}}{t} = \frac{-20m/s}{10s} = -2 m/s2 (4)$
