Answer:

Vf = 21 m/s

Explanation:

Data:

Initial Velocity (Vo) = 15 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 2.0 m/s²
Time (t) = 3 s
Final Velocity (Vf) = ?

Use formula:

Vf = Vo + a * t

Replace:

Vf = 15 m/s + 2.0 m/s² * 3s

Multiply the acceleration with time:

Vf = 15 m/s + 6 m/s

Solve the sum:

Vf = 21 m/s

The velocity of the car at the end of the 3 second interval is <u>21 meters per second.</u>

What is the speed of a wave with a wavelength of 3 m and a frequency of .1Hz?

Yuri [45]

We know,
Speed = Frequency * Wavelength
Speed = 3 * 0.1 m/s [hertz = 1/sec.]
So, your final answer is 0.3 m/s

Hope this helps!!

What is the density of an object with a mass of 60g and a volume of 2cm3?

zaharov [31]

m= 60g = 60/1000 Kg = 0.06 Kg v = 2cm3 = 2 * (0.01^3) m3 = 2 *10^-6 m3 Density= m/v = 6 * 10^-2 / 2 *10^-6 = 3 *10^4 Kg/m3

If the Velocity of the body<br> is increased to 3v, determine the kinetic energy

Rom4ik [11]

ANSWER; KE=5mv^2 so it is proportional to v^2.

Explanation:So if you triple the velocity you are replacing v with 3v. Then you get (3v)^2=9v^2.

In a lab experiment a light flexible string is wrapped around a solid cylinder with mass M = 9.50 kg and radius R. The cylinder

Lunna [17]

Answer: $3.79 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

Mass $M=9.5 kg$

$m=3 kg$

Net Force is equivalent to $\sum F=ma$

with tension T in the string

For mass $m$

$mg-T=ma$

$T=mg-ma--------1$

For cylinder

$T\cdot R=I\times \alpha$

I for solid cylinder is $\frac{2}{5}MR^2 , and \alpha =\frac{a}{R}$

thus $T=\frac{Ma}{2}----2$

Substitute the value of T we get

$\frac{Ma}{2}=mg-ma$

$a(\frac{M}{2}+m)=mg$

$a=\frac{mg}{\frac{M}{2}+m}$

$a=3.79 m/s^2$
