Answer:

-2.83 m/s²

Explanation:

Initial velocity (u) = 34 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 17 m/s
Time taken (t) = 6 seconds

❖ Acceleration is defined as the rate of change in velocity with time.

→ a = (v - u)/t

v denotes final velocity
a denotes acceleration
u denotes initial velocity
t denotes time

→ a = (17 - 34)/6 m/s²

→ a = -17/6 m/s²

<h3>→ Acceleration = -2.83 m/s²</h3>

(Minus sign implies that the velocity is decreasing.)

A block is pulled along a horizontal surface at a constant speed by a force (14.1i 0 j 5.1k). The direction k is perpendicular t

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$W =84.6\ Nm$

Explanation:

given,

F = 14.1 i + 0 j + 5.1 k

displacement = 6 m

Assuming block is moving in x- direction

we know,

dW = F dx

$\int dW = F\int dx$

$W = F\int_0^6 dx$

$W = F[x]_0^6$

$W = 14.1 \times 6$

$W =84.6\ Nm$

hence, work done by the force is equal to $W =84.6\ Nm$

<span>Multiplexing is the process of combining numerous signal of data or sound on to a single carrier like an optical fiber by using different wavelengths. The type of multiplexing that is defined by wavelength instead of frequency is CWDM which is also known as Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing.</span>

Answer:

Suppose two objects of different masses are moving with different velocities in the same direction on a straght-line before collision. After collision, they stick together and move with common (the same) velocity
