A car accelerates from rest at 1.0 m/s2 for 20.0 second along a straight road. It then moves at a constant speed for half an hou

r and then decelerates uniformly to a stop in 30.0 s. Find the total distance covered by the car and the average velocity of the car for the entire trip.

Total distance = 36500 m

The average velocity = 19.73 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

vo=initial velocity=0(from rest)

a=acceleration= 1 m/s²

t₁ = 20 s

t₂ = 0.5 hr = 1800 s

t₃= 30 s

Required

Total distance

Solution

State 1 : acceleration

\tt d=vo.t+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times 20^2\rightarrow vo=0\\\\d=200~m

\tt vt=vo+at\\\\vt=at\rightarrow vo=0\\\\vt=1\times 20\\\\vt=20~m/s

State 2 : constant speed

\tt d=v\times t\\\\d=20\times 1800\\\\d=36000~m

State 3 : deceleration

\tt vt=vo+at\rightarrow vt=0(stop)\\\\vo=-at\\\\20=-a.30~s\\\\a=-\dfrac{2}{3}m/s^2(negative=deceleration)

\tt d=vot+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\d=20.30-\dfrac{1}{2}.\dfrac{2}{3}.30^2\\\\d=300~m

Total distance : state 1+ state 2+state 3

\tt 200 + 36000 + 300=36500~m

the average velocity = total distance : total time

\tt avg~velocity=\dfrac{36500}{20~s+1800~s+30~s}=19.73~m/s

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

3m

Explanation:

If a girl is 5m away from a mirror, she needs to walk a further 3m to be 2m away from her image.

5m-3m = 2m

What is intermolecular forces and how is it related to phases of matter
MakcuM [25]
Intermolecular forces are forces that keep molecules together. For example, the forces between two water molecules. The stronger the intermolecular forces are, the more "solid" is the matter going to be, meaning that the intermolecular forces are the strongest in solids and weakest in gases.
Make sure not to confuse intERmolecular forces (forces between *molecules*) and intRAmolecular forces (forces between *atoms* that make up a molecule).
