A rocket sled accelerates from 10 m/s to 40 m/s in 2 seconds. What is the average acceleration of the sled?

Physics
1 answer:
Dafna11 [192]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

15m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 10m/s

Final velocity  = 40m/s

Time taken  = 2s

Unknown:

Average acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time;

 Acceleration  = \frac{Final velocity   -  Initial velocity }{time}  

  Acceleration = \frac{40 - 10}{2}    = 15m/s²

The work done is equal to the change in potential energy which is:
P.E = mgh
P.E = 500 x 9.81 x 15
P.E = 73,575 J

Power = work / time
Power = 73,575 / 20
Power = 3,700 Watts

What type of equilibrium is guaranteed by each condition of equilibrium
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: Conditions for equilibrium require that the sum of all external forces acting on the body is zero (first condition of equilibrium), and the sum of all external torques from external forces is zero (second condition of equilibrium). These two conditions must be simultaneously satisfied in equilibrium

Suppose the wavelength of the light is 450 nm . how much farther is it from the dot on the screen in the center of fringe e to t
lbvjy [14]

Since you are looking at a right fringe, the answer is all the time a multiple of the wavelength for the reason that the light makes constructive intrusion. If you are looking at the center (zeroth) fringe, the difference is (450)(0) = 0. For the first maximum, the difference is 450 nm. For the second, it is 450 x 2 = 900 nm. Basically, for the nth maxima, the difference is 450n.
