Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

2.4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Time 25s

Final velocity  = 60m/s

Unknown:

Acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of displacement

      Acceleration  = \frac{Final velocity  - Initial velocity}{time}

    Acceleration  = \frac{60 - 0}{25}    = 2.4m/s³

Explanation:

When an electron is displaced in a semiconductor, the hole that's left behind is

A. attracted to the negative terminal of the voltage source.

The electron leaving leaves a net + charge, which is attracted to the negative terminal.

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: Part(a)=0.041 secs, Part(b)=0.041 secs

Explanation: Firstly we assume that only the gravitational acceleration is acting on the basket ball player i.e. there is no air friction

now we know that

a=-9.81 m/s^2  ( negative because it is pulling the player downwards)

we also know that

s=76 cm= 0.76 m ( maximum s)

using kinetic equation

v^2=u^2+2as

where v is final velocity which is zero at max height and u is it initial

hence

u^2=-2(-9.81)*0.76

u=3.8615 m/s\\

now we can find time in the 15 cm ascent

s=ut+0.5at^2

0.15=3.861*t+0.5*9.81t^2\\

using quadratic formula

t=\frac{-3.861+\sqrt{3.86^2-4*0.5*9.81(-0.15)} }{2*0.5*9.81}

t=0.0409 sec

the answer for the part b will be the same

To find the answer for the part b we can find the velocity at 15 cm height similarly using

v^2=u^2+2as

where s=0.76-0.15

as the player has traveled the above distance to reach 15cm to the bottom

v^2=0^2 +2*(9.81)*(0.76-0.15)

v=3.4595

when the player reaches the bottom it has the same velocity with which it started which is 3.861

hence the time required to reach the bottom 15cm is

t=\frac{3.861-3.4595}{9.81}

t=0.0409
