Answer:

a = 5 [m/s²].

Explanation:

To solve this equation we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} +a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 25 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 5 [m/s]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 4 [s]

Note: The positive sign for the acceleration in the above equation means that the car is increasing its velocity.

25 = 5 +a*(4)

25 - 5 = 4*a

20 = 4*a

a = 5 [m/s²]

1. ¿Qué presión se ejerce sobre cada una de las cuatro patas de una mesa si su masa es de 20 kg y
mestny [16]
Tenemos.

Masa de la mesa = 20kg
Masa encima = 10kg
Masa total = 30kg
Area de cada pata = 20cm² = 20cm² * 1/10000cm² * 1m² =0,002m²

Presió(P)n que se ejerce sobre cada pata.

P =F/A
P = Masa por gravedad/A Masa = 30kg Gravedad =9,8m/s²
P =(30kg * 9,8m/s²)/0,002m²
P = 294kg * m/s²/0,002m² Pero kg *m/s² = Nw
P = 294Nw0,002m²
P = 147000 Nw/m² Pero Nw/m² = pa
p =1,47 * 10⁵ pa

Respuesta.
La presión que se ejerce sobre cada pata es de 1,47 * 10⁵pa

if you jump from a window that is 2 meters up you will most likely break the bones in your legs when you land however on a tramp
Gemiola [76]
<span>The de-acceleration or negative acceleration of stopping is what damages bones. The ground is rigid and therefore the change in momentum when striking the ground will be large. On the trampoline, the elasticity of the material means that the momentum changes more slowly, resulting in smaller accelerations.</span>

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of 6.65×106 m/???? away from the Earth emits light with a wavelength of 5.13×10−
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is 5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m.

Explanation:

Given that,

The actual wavelength of the hydrogen atom, \lambda_a=5.13\times 10^{-7}\ m

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of, v=6.65\times 10^6\ m/s

We need to find the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom. The speed of galaxy is given by :

v=c\times \dfrac{\lambda_o-\lambda_a}{\lambda_a}

\lambda_o is the observed wavelength

\lambda_o=\dfrac{v\lambda_a}{c}+\lambda_a\\\\\lambda_o=\dfrac{6.65\times 10^6\times 5.13\times 10^{-7}}{3\times 10^8}+5.13\times 10^{-7}\\\\\lambda_o=5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m

So, the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is 5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m. Hence, this is the required solution.
