Answer: 3 m/s^2

Explanation: The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of the velocity:

We know that at the time t = 0 the velocity was 15 m/s

and at the time t = 3s the velocity was 24 m/s

Then the average acceleration may be calculated as the slope of the linear relationship between these two points; this is if the points are (0, 15) and (3, 24)

The slope is : S = (23 - 15)/(3 - 0)m/s^2 = 3m/s^2

So the average acceleration of the motorcycle in this period of time is 3 meters per second squared.

Answer: 3 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of the motorcycle is given by

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v=24 m/s is the final velocity of the motorcycle

u=15 m/s is the initial velocity

t=3 s is the time taken

Substituting these numbers into the equation, we find

a=\frac{24 m/s-15 m/s}{3 s}=\frac{9 m/s}{3s}=3 m/s^2

Why can’t solids flow
Annette [7]

Answer:

basically they have too much mass in them

Explanation:

They are held tightly together by strong forces of attraction. They are held in fixed positions but they do vibrate. Because the particles don't move, solids have a definite shape and volume, and can't flow. Because the particles are already packed closely together, solids can't easily be compressed.

The centripetal acceleration a is 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The speed is constant and computing the speed from the distance and time for one full lap.

Given, distance = 400 mm = 0.4 m,       Time = 100 s.

Computing the v = 0.4 m / 100 s

                         v = 4 \times 10^-3 m/s.

radius of the circular end r = 37 mm = 0.037 m.

            centripetal acceleration a = v^2 / r

                                                        = (4 \times 10^-3)^2 / 0.037

                                                    a = 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.
