How can i tell on a position-time graph if it is speed or acceleration

1 answer:

6 0

You didn't say what "it" is.

On a position/time graph, the slope of the graph at any point is the speed
at that time.

If you want acceleration, then what you'd have to do is to measure the slope
at every point on the position/time graph, then use that information to draw
a speed/time graph. The slope at every point on the speed/time graph is
the acceleration at that time.

How the Law of Conservation of Matter is supported by the experimental demonstrations?

Delvig [45]

The law of conservation of matter states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another. To state an example where this is shown, let's say a piece of paper is burning. Not having a scientific background, you would say that the matter is being destroyed. But in reality, the paper is simple being transformed to ash, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Overall, the total mass would still remain the same.

A quarter is flipped from a height of 1.45 m above the ground. How much time will it take to reach the ground if the person flip

Artemon [7]

It will take the quarter 0.151 seconds to reach the ground.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Height = 1.45 meters

Initial velocity = 10.32 m/s

We know that acceleration due to gravity (a) for an object is equal to 9.8 meter per seconds square.

To find how much time it will take the quarter to reach the ground, we would use the second equation of motion.

Mathematically, the second equation of motion is given by the formula;

$S = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Where:

S is the height or distance covered.

u is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

$1.45 = 10.32(t) + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)t^2\\\\1.45 = 10.32t + 4.9t^2\\\\4.9t^2 + 10.32t - 1.45 = 0$

The standard form of a quadratic equation is:

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

a = 4.9, b = 10.32 and c = 1.45

We would solve the above quadratic equation by using the quadratic equation formula;

$x = \frac{-b\; \pm \;\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting the values, we have;

$t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;\sqrt{10.32^2\; - \;4(4.9)(1.45)}}{2(4.9)}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;\sqrt{106.5024\; - \;28.42}}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;\sqrt{78.0824}}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; \pm \;8.84}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{-10.32\; + \;8.84}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{1.48}{9.8}$

<em>Time, t = 0.151 seconds.</em>

Therefore, it will take the quarter 0.151 seconds to reach the ground.

Which one of the following is a measurement of energy used?

Leokris [45]

The correct answer to the question is D) 6 joules.

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, four measurements are given i.e 24 m/s, 60 mg, 15 L and 6 J.

We are asked to determine the measurement which corresponds to energy.

Energy is measured in various units like joule, erg, electron volt etc.

Joule is the unit of energy in S.I system.

Hence, the correct measurement which corresponds to energy is 6 joules.

All other measurements like 24 m/s, 60 mg and 15 L are not the measurements of energy. These are the measurements of speed, mass and volume respectively.

A car tire is filled with air at pressure 325000 pa at 303 K. When the tire cools,its pressure reduces to 299000 Pa. What is the

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

new temperature of the tire will be 278.76 K

Explanation:

when the temperature increases, the particles will have greater kinetic energy and also the pressure will be increase for the gas particles.

so when the temperature increases, pressure will also increase and vice versa

T is directly proportional to P

T1 = initial temperature= 303 k

P1= Initial pressure = 325000 pa

T2= Final temperature= ?

P2= Final pressure = 299000 pa

mathematically

P1/T1= P2/T2

T2= P2 x T1/P1

T2 = 299000 x 303/ 325000= 278.76 k
