Review Conceptual Example 6 as background for this problem. A car is traveling to the left, which is the negative direction. The

direction of travel remains the same throughout this problem. The car's initial speed is 17.8 m/s, and during a 4.68-second interval, it changes to a final speed of (a)23.5 m/s and (b)15.3 m/s. In each case, find the acceleration (magnitude and algebraic sign).

Answer:

(a) 1.21 m/s² (b) 1.75 m/s²

Explanation:

The initial speed of the car, u = 17.8 m/s

Case 1.

Final speed of the car, v = 23.5 m/s

Time, t = 4.68-s

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

a=\dfrac{23.5 -17.8 }{4.68}\\\\a=1.21\ m/s^2

Case 2.

Final speed of the car, v = 15.3 m/s

a=\dfrac{23.5 -15.3}{4.68}\\\\a=1.75\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

Define 1 unit electricity​
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

A unit is represented in kWH or Kilowatt Hour. This is the actual electricity or energy used. If you use 1000 Watts or 1 Kilowatt of power for 1 hour then you consume 1 unit or 1 Kilowatt-Hour (kWh) of electricity.

A force gives a 5.0 kg object an acceleration of 2.0 m/s 2. The same force would give a 20 kg object an acceleration of _____. 0
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

m = 5 kg

a = 2 m/s²

to find the force that accelerates the 4 kg object @ 2 m/s²

F = ma = 5 kg x 2 m/s² = 10 N

To find what acceleration 10 N would give a 20 kg object

a = F/m = 10 N/20 kg = 0.5 m/s

Explain the role of energy in changes <br> of state.
slava [35]
A liquid requires enthalpy of vaporization to transform into vapor or gas at its boiling point.  Here the element absorbs heat from surroundings or heat source.

This energy is used in breaking the forces of attraction among the atoms and molecules of the element. The molecules get separated to higher distances. The energy is converted in to the kinetic energy of the molecules in gaseous form and into the internal energy in terms of the temperature of the gas.
