Answer:
1) 1.08 m/s^2
Explanation:
Acceleration is equal to the change in velocity divided by the time taken:
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
is the time taken
In this problem, we have:
- initial velocity: u = 0 (you start from rest)
- final velocity: v = 5.4 m/s
- time taken:
Therefore, the acceleration is
2) -0.54 m/s^2
We can calculate the acceleration to slow down using the same formula as before, but this time the data are as follows:
- initial velocity : u = 5.4 m/s
- final velocity : v = 0 (you come to a stop)
- time taken :
using the same formula, we find
And the negative sign means it is a deceleration.
Answer:
3 m/s^2
Explanation:
avg. acceleration= (change velocity)/ time
[v(final)-v(initial)]/(t2-t1)
[(300 m/s)-(0 m/s)]/(100s-0)
(300 m/s)/(100s)
= 3 m/s^2
Answer:
A. 20 N
Explanation:
Weight of the book = mass × acceleration due to gravity
= 2 × 10
= 20 N
Answer:
Walking burns up more energy,1740000J
Explanation:
Given that the displacement is 5.0km, and running at 10km/h and uses, walking at 3km/hr and uses 290watts:
Energy consumption for running is calculated as:
Energy consumption for walking is calculated as:
Walking is a slower process hence the need for more energy over longer periods raltive to running the same distance.
Hence walking burns more energy; 1,740,000J. It burns more because you walk for a greater period of time.
