Answer:
The acceleration of the car, a = -3.75 m/s²
Explanation:
Given data,
The initial velocity of the airplane, u = 75 m/s
The final velocity of the plane, v = 0 m/s
The time period of motion, t = 20 s
Using the I equations of motion
v = u + at
a = (v - u) / t
= (0 - 75) / 20
= -3.75 m/s²
The negative sign indicates that the plane is decelerating
Hence, the acceleration of the car, a = -3.75 m/s²
Answer:
1. The final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s
2. The distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m
Explanation:
1. Determination of the final velocity
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²
Time (t) = 5 s
Final velocity (v) =?
The final velocity of the truck can be obtained as follow:
v = u + at
v = 0 + (3 × 5)
v = 0 + 15
v = 15 m/s
Therefore, the final velocity of the truck is 15 m/s
2. Determination of the distance travelled
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 3 m/s²
Time (t) = 5 s
Distance (s) =?
The distance travelled by the truck can be obtained as follow:
s = ut + ½at²
s = (0 × 5) + (½ × 3 × 5²)
s = 0 + (½ × 3 × 25)
s = 0 + 37.5
s = 37.5 m
Therefore, the distance travelled by the truck is 37.5 m
The correct choice is D .
Solid elements are rigid elements. For example an element iron is in solid form. You can touch it and it’s hard.
