Answer:

Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2).

A 50 kg bobsled slides down an ice track starting (at zero initial speed) from the top of a(n) 184 m high hill. The acceleration

Feliz [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of ice $m=50\ kg$

Height of hill $h=184\ m$

Neglecting air resistance

As resistance is absent so Energy at top of hill and at the bottom hill is conserved.

Energy at top is equal to Potential Energy

$E_T=mgh=50\times 9.8\times 184$

Energy at bottom is equal to kinetic energy at bottom

$E_B=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E_T=E_B$

$50\times 9.8\times 184=\frac{1}{2}\times 50\times v^2$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 184}$

$v=60.05\ m/s$

Help pls☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️<br> anyone

Most of the question 1 is chopped off so I'll try my best to answer.

1ai) In a telephone, the sound is converted into electrical signals before being sent through the wire before converted back into sound.

1aii) Sound travels by the collision between particles. In solids, the particles are closely packed (as compared to air molecules) and thus collide with their neighbors quickly after being disturbed, allowing for sound to be passed on at a faster rate.

b) Can't help much on this one.
