Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change).
Change in speed = (15 - 30) = -15 km/hr
Time for the change = 4 sec
Acceleration = (-15 km/hr) / (4 sec) = -3.75 km/hr per second .
Is that a lot ? Not much ?
Let's convert it to a unit that we can think about:
(-15 km/hr) x (1,000 m/km) x (1 hr / 3,600 sec) =
(-15 x 1,000) / (3,600) = -(4 and 1/6) m/sec .
So the acceleration of the bus is -(4 and 1/6) m/sec² .
The negative sign means that it slowed down.
(4 and 1/6) m/sec² is about 42% of the acceleration of gravity ...
the acceleration the bus would have if it drove off of a cliff.
When the car or the bus you're riding in slows down at that rate,
you feel 42% of your weight pulling you forward against your
seat belt. That's quite a drastic acceleration !
Carbon is the basis of all organic molecules
Answer:
They are the same (assuming there is no air friction)
Explanation:
Take a look at the picture.
When the first ball (the one thrown upward) gets to the point marked as A, the speed will has the exact same value V but the velocity will now point downward (just like the second ball).
So if you think about it, the first ball, from point A to the ground, will behave exactly like the second ball (same initial speed, same height).
That is why the speeds will be the same when they reach the ground.
Answer:
The sequence is A,B,H,B,F
Explanation:
- The Standard International unit is Kilogram (kg) and the mass of a body can also be expressed in gram (g).
- Heat is a form of energy and the unit for energy is joule (J), thus the unit of heat is also joule (J).
- Density is mass per unit volume where the unit of mass is gram (g) and the unit of volume can be taken as milli-liter (mL). Thus g/mL is the unit of density.
- The unit of energy is joule (J).
- Molarity is number of solute in mol dissolved in 1 liter of solution. Thus mol/L is the the unit of molarity.
