Gain in velocity = 60 - 30 = 30 m/s.

Time taken for this gain = 5 seconds

Average acceleration = 30 / 5 = 6 m/s/s.

So, 6 metres per second squared.

A racecar driver on a flat racetrack steps on the gas, changing her velocity from 10 m/sec to 30 m/sec in 5 seconds. What is the
erastova [34]

Answer:

4m/s2

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

U (initial velocity) = 10m/s

V (final velocity) = 30m/s

t (time) = 5secs

a (acceleration) =?

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. It is represented mathematically as:

a = (V - U)/t

Now, with this equation i.e

a = (V - U)/t, we can calculate the acceleration of the race car as follow:

a = (V - U)/t

a = (30 - 10)/5

a = 20/5

a = 4m/s2

Therefore, the acceleration of the race car is 4m/s2

g The current in a series circuit is 15.0 A. When an additional 8.00-% resistor is inserted in series, the current drops to 12.0
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the original resistance be R and voltage be V

Applying ohm's law

V / R = 15

V = 15 R

In second case

V / (R+8 ) = 12

V = 12 R + 96

15 R = 12 R + 96

3R = 96

R = 32 ohm .
