Answer:

The acceleration is 8 m/s²

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity, u = 2 m/s

The final velocity, v = 6 m/s

The distance the acceleration took place, s = 2 m

The acceleration, a, can be found from the following kinematic equation;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

By substituting the values, we have;

6² = 2² + 2 × a × 2

6² - 2² = 2 × a × 2

32 = 4·a

a = 32/4 = 8 m/s²

The acceleration, a, of the given motion = 8 m/s².

Robin Hood wishes to split an arrow already in the bull's-eye of a target 40 m away.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

5.843 m

Explanation:

suppose that the arrow leave the bow with a horizontal speed , towards he bull's eye.

lets consider that horizontal motion

distance = speed * time

time = 40/ 37 = 1.081 s

arrow doesnot have a initial vertical velocity component. but it has a vertical motion due to gravity , which may cause a miss of the target.

applying motion equation

(assume g = 10 m/s²)

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}*gt^{2} \\= 0+\frac{1}{2}*10*1.081^{2}\\= 5.843 m$

Arrow misses the target by 5.843m ig the arrow us split horizontally

I cant solve this problem, and our teacher said that this would be in the test we'll have tomorrow, can someone help me?

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

d = 11.1 m

Explanation:

Since the inclined plane is frictionless, this is just a simple application of the conservation law of energy:

$\frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} = mgh$

Let d be the displacement along the inclined plane. Note that the height h in terms of d and the angle is as follows:

$\sin(15) = \frac{h}{d} \\ or \: h = d \sin(15)$

Plugging this into the energy conservation equation and cancelling m, we get

${v}^{2} = 2gd \sin(15)$

Solving for d,

$d = \frac{ {v}^{2} }{2g \sin(15) } = \frac{ {(7.5 \: \frac{m}{s}) }^{2} }{2(9.8 \: \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} })(0.259)} \\ = 11.1 \: m$

Benjamina started her walk from the front door of her ground floor apartment. She walked 6 meters to the corner of the building

Cloud [144]

The distance is the total distance she walked which is 16 meters adding the 6 meters to the corner and 10 meters to her friend's apartment. Her displacement is the distance from her original starting point so you set up a triangle with side lengths of 6 and 10 and solve for the hypotenuse which gives you a displacement of 11.66 meters.

6. What is the change in temperature of a metal rod that is 55.0 cm long, decreases length by 0.20 cm, and that has a coefficien

MrMuchimi

Explanation:

We have,

Length of a metal rod is 55 cm or 0.55 m

Change in length is 0.2 cm or 0.002 m

It is required to find the change in temperature of a metal rod. The coefficient of linear expansion is given by :

$\alpha =\dfrac{\Delta L}{L_0\Delta T}$
