Here ya go (: In physics, you find displacement by calculating the distance between an object’s initial position and its final position. In physics terms, you often see displacement referred to as the variable s. The official displacement formula is as follows: s = sf – si.

According to Dalton’s atomic theory
NARA [144]
Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms and their properties. ... The first part of his theory states that all matter is made of atoms, which are indivisible. The second part of the theory says all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.

A physics student skis down a hill, accelerating at a constant
ikadub [295]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

225 meters

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of an object in motion.

In our case we are given;

Acceleration, a = 2.0 m/s²

Time, t = 15 s

We are required to find the length of the slope;

Assuming the student started at rest, then the initial velocity, V₀ is Zero.

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the final velocity, Vf</h3>

Using the equation of linear motion;

Vf = V₀ + at

Therefore;

Vf = 0 + (2 × 15)

    = 30 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the student is 30 m/s

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the length (displacement) of the slope </h3>

Using the other equation of linear motion;

S = 0.5 at + V₀t

We can calculate the length, S of the slope

That is;

S = (0.5 × 2 × 15² ) - (0 × 15)

= 225 m

Therefore, the length of the slope is 225 m

Narysuj wykres zależności v(t) jeśli w chwili początkowej t=0 V=10m/s w każdej sekundzie szybkość zmniejsza się o 1m/s . Po jaki
irina1246 [14]

1) See graph in attachment

2) 10 s

3) 50 m

Explanation:

1)

In this problem, we have an object initially moving with a velocity of

v = 10 m/s

when the time is

t = 0 s

Then, we are told that the speed of the object is decreasing by 1 m/s every  second. This means that on a velocity-time graph, the motion will be represented by a straight line, starting from v = 10 when t = 0, and decreasing by 1 m/s every second.

The result can be found in the graph in attachment.

Moreover, we can also infer that the motion of the object is accelerated (because velocity is changing), and that the acceleration is constant and it is equal to

a=1 m/s^2

which is equivalent to the gradient of the line in the velocity-time graph.

2)

In this part, we want to find after what time the body will stop its motion.

To do that, we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

In this problem:

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity of the body

a=-1 m/s^2 is the acceleration

v = 0 m/s, because we want to find the time T at which the body will stop

Re-arranging the equation, we find:

T=-\frac{u}{a}=-\frac{10}{-1}=10 s

3)

In order to find the total distance covered by the body during its accelerated motion, we have to use another suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

In this problem:

u = 10 m/s is the initial velocity

a=-1 m/s^2 is the acceleration

t = 10 s is the time it takes for the body to stop (found in part 2)

Solving for s, we find the distance covered:

s=(10)(10)+\frac{1}{2}(-1)(10)^2=50 m
