[Assume g = 10m/s?] If a girl is running along a straight road with a uniform velocity 1.5 m/s, find her acceleration. (Ans: 0)

a.​

DerKrebs [107]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Her acceleration is 0 m/s²

Explanation:

We note that the motion of the girl is on a straight road, therefore;

The vertical acceleration (e.g. due to gravity, <em>g)</em> on the horizontal motion = 0

The horizontal acceleration, a = (Change in velocity, Δv)/(Change in time, Δt)

For uniform velocity, the change in velocity, Δv = 0

Therefore, fore any change in time, Δt, we have;

a = Δv/Δt

Her acceleration, a = 0/Δt = 0

Her acceleration, a = 0 m/s²

If Neptune’s mass were reduced, what could be done to maintain the same force of gravitational attraction between Neptune and th
Alenkinab [10]
Make Neptune closer to the sun because then it would have a stronger gravitation pull. Because the closer the objects are, they will have a stronger gravitaional force and when the object has more mass, the gravity is also stronger. So, if the mass is reduced, the gravity force would be reduced, but if you bring neptune closer, the gravity force would increase

How large an expansion gap should be left between steel railroad rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 40.0°C greater th
ella [17]

Answer:

19.68 × 10⁻³ m

Explanation:

Given;

Original Length, L₁ = 41.0 m

Temperature Change, ΔT = 40.0°C

Thermal Linear expansion of steel is given to be, ∝_{steel} = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C

   Generally, Linear expansivity is expressed as;

                               ∝ = ΔL / L₁ΔT

Where

∝ is the Linear expansivity

ΔL is the change in length, L₂ - L₁

L₂ is the final length

L₁ is the original length

ΔT is the change in temperature θ₂ - θ₁ (Final Temperature - Initial Temperature)              

From equation of linear expansivity

                         ΔL = ∝_{steel}L₁ΔT

                         ΔL = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C × 41.0 m × 40.0 °C

                         ΔL = 19.68 × 10⁻³ m

                         ΔL = 19.68 mm
