A car sets off from the traffic lights. It reaches a speed of 27 m/s in 18 seconds. What is its acceleration?

Physics

Katarina [22]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1.6875m/s²

Explanation:

acceleration =  \frac{final \: velocity \:  -  \: initial \: velocity}{time \: taken}

<em> </em><em>a </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>unknown.</em>

<em>v </em><em>(</em><em>final </em><em>velocity)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>7</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s</em>

<em>u </em><em>(</em><em>initial </em><em>velocity</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s </em><em>(</em><em>as </em><em>the </em><em>car</em><em> </em><em>was </em><em>stationary </em><em>in </em><em>the </em><em>traffic </em><em>lights)</em><em>.</em>

<em>t </em><em>(</em><em>time </em><em>taken)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>8</em><em>s</em>

<em>a =  \frac{27 - 0}{16}</em>

<em>acceleration</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>1.6875</em><em>m</em><em>/</em><em>s²</em>

hope it helps. :)

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

a. Technician A

Explanation:

Technician A says that a MAF sensor is a high-authority sensor and is responsible for determining the fuel needs of the engine based on the measured amount of air entering the engine. Technician B says that a cold wire MAF sensor uses the electronics in the sensor itself to heat a wire 20°C below the temperature of the air entering the engine. Who is right

MAF wich stands for  mass airflow sensor determines the mass of air flowing into the engine's air intake system. ... , the wire cools When air flows past the wire, decreasing its resistance, thereby more current flows through the circuit. When the MAf goes bad, it can not sense the amount of air intake into the engine.

My mass is 65 kg and on Earth this equals a weight of 640 N, but on the moon where gravity is 1.7 m/s² my
Helen [10]

Your weight on the moon given the data from the question is 110.5 N

<h3>Definition of mass and weight </h3>

Mass is simply defined as the quantity of matter present in an object. The mass of an object is constant irrespective of the location of the object.

Weight is simply defined as the gravitational pull on an object. The weight of an object varies from place to place due to gravity.

<h3>Relationship between mass and weight </h3>

Mass and weight are related according to the following equation

Weight (W) = mass (m) × Acceleration due to gravity (g)

<h3>How to determine the weight on the moon</h3>
  • Mass (m) = 65 Kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity on the moon (g) = 1.7 m/s²
  • Weight (W) =?

W = mg

W = 65 × 1.7

W = 110.5 N

A lead ball is dropped into a lake from a diving board 5.0 m above the water. After entering the water, it sinks to the bottom w
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

|D_{depth} |=19.697m

Explanation:

To find Depth D of lake we must need to find the time taken to hit the water.So we use equation of simple motion as:

Δx=vit+(1/2)at²

x_{f}-x_{i}=v_{i}t+(1/2)at^{2}\\  -5.0m=(o)t+(1/2)(-9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}\\ -4.9t^{2}=-5.0\\ t^{2}=5/4.9\\t=\sqrt{1.02} \\t=1.01s

As we have find the time taken now we need to find the final velocity vf from below equation as

v_{f}=v_{i}+at\\v_{f}=0+(-9.8m/s^{2} )(1.01s) \\v_{f}=-9.898m/s

So the depth of lake is given by:

first we need to find total time as

t=3.0-1.01 =1.99 s

|D_{depth} |=|vt|\\|D_{depth} |=|(-9.898m/s)(1.99s)|\\|D_{depth} |=19.697m

What is the advantage in solving motion problems using energy conservation principles instead of free body diagrams
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

However, the disadvantages are:

1. Many atimes for some motion prolems, free-body diagrams has to be drawn many times so to have enough equations to solve for the unknowns. This is not the same with energy conservation principles.

2. In situations where we need to find the internal forces acting on an object, we can't truly solve such problems using free-body diagram as it captures external forces. This is not the same with energy conservation principles.

Explanation:

Often times the ideal method to use in solving motion problem related questions are mostly debated.

Energy conservation principles applies to isolated systems are useful when object changes their positions in moving upward or downward converts its potential energy due to gravity for kinetic energy, or the other way round. When energy in a system or motion remains constant that is energy is neither created nor destroyed, it can therefore be easier to calculate other unknown paramters like in the motion problem velocity, distance bearing it in mind that energy can only change from one type to another.

On the other hand, free body diagram which is a visual representation of all the forces acting on an object including their directions has so many advantages in solving motion related problems which include finding relationship between force and motion in identifying the force acting on a body.
