Answer:

final velocity = 0

because the train stoped

so,

acceleration = (v - u) ÷ t
acceleration = (0 - 22) ÷ 135
acceleration = -22 ÷ 135

acceleration = -0.162 m/s²

True or false? All waves need a medium in order to travel

Art [367]

That's false. Mechanical waves (like sound and ocean waves) do
need a medium to travel in, but electromagnetic waves (like radio
and light) don't.

Which of the following would have more momentum than fiona, a 313kg hippo, running at 8m/s?

kap26 [50]

Let's calculate the momentum of Fiona, given by the product between its mass and its speed:
$p=mv=(313 kg)(8 m/s)=2504 kg m/s$

Now let's compare it with the momentum of the other animals:
a) the mass of the sea turtle is missing, so we cannot calculate its momentum.
b) the momentum of the dolphin is
$p=mv=(150 kg)(18 m/s)=2700 kg m/s$
c) the momentum of the horse is
$p=mv=(380 kg)(4 m/s)=1520 kg m/s$
d) the momentum of the lion is
$p=mv=(190 kg)(11 m/s)=2090 m/s$

And we can see that the correct answer is b), because the momentum of the dolphin is greater than the momentum of Fiona.

The info below shows three kettles with their powers and the time they take to boil 500cm3 of water. If electricity costs 9p per

Hitman42 [59]

The cost of boiling 500cm3 of water using the 3kW kettle is 1.35 P.

<h3>Cost of electricity for 3 kW kettle</h3>

The cost is calculated as follows;

1 unit = 9p /kWh

Total energy consumed by 3 kW kettle, E = P x t

where;

P is power (kW)
t is time in (hr)

E = 3 kW x (3 mins/60 mins/hr)

E = 0.15 kWh

Energy cost = 9 p/kWh x 0.15 kWh = 1.35 P

Thus, the cost of boiling 500cm3 of water using the 3kW kettle is 1.35 P.

PLEASE HELP.You hit a hockey puck across an empty hockey rink. At first the puck moves quickly, but then it slows and comes to a

Hi there!

Two possible answers are air resistance and friction.

Friction is caused by the rubbing of the surface of the ground and the surface of the object. Although ice doesn't have much friction, it can still cause friction.

Air resistance is caused by friction between the air and the object. As the object moves along a surface, it collides into many air particles; thus, it slows down.

Hope this helps.
Have an awesome day! :)
