<h3>Answer:  22.5 m/s</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

acceleration = ( finalVelocity - initialVelocity )/(change in time)

1.5 = (60 - x)/(25)

1.5*25 = 60-x

37.5 = 60-x

x = 60-37.5

x = 22.5

The initial velocity is 22.5 m/s

Starting from rest, a runner accelerates to 10 m/s in 5 s. What is the acceleration of the runner?
ELEN [110]
A=vf-vi / time

* vi here is zero as the runner started from rest*
so
a= 10-0/5 which equals 2 m/s^2

Consider a coccus and a rod of equal volume. Which is more likely to survive in a dry environment? Explain your answer Which wou
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Coccus  is suitable for dry environment and a rod is better adapted for moist environment.

Explanation:

The probability of Coccus would be  better suitable for a environment which is dry. A sphere posses less surface area for the volume, as such,  moisture which is  lost through osmosis  is less in dry environment conditions.

During a moist environment, the ratio of the surface area to volume of a rod shaped bacterium is high, which allow higher efficiency to transfer water and solutes into and outside of the cell, and to make possible for a cell which is in rod shaped, have a metabolic rate higher.

The relationship between body mass body weight and body density
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The formula for calculating Density is:

= Mass / Volume

From this formula, we can say that the relationship between Mass and Density is a direct one. In other words, if mass is increasing - all else being equal - then density will increase as well.

If mass however was decreasing, density would have to decrease as well.

For example, assume 3 bricks have masses of 5kg, 10kg and 15kg. Also assume that the bricks all have the same volume of 5 m³.

Density of 5kg brick = 5 / 5 = 1 kg/m³

Density of 10kg brick = 10 / 5 = 2kg / m³

Density of 15kg brick = 15 / 5 = 3 kg /m³

<em>Notice how density increases as mass increases and decreases when mass decreases. </em>

A cart moves along a track at a velocity of 3.5 cm/s. When a force is applied to the cart, its velocity increases to 8.2 cm/s. I
Lorico [155]

Answer:

3.13cm/s²

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity u = 3.5cm/s

Final velocity v = 8.2cm/s

Time t = 1.5secs

Required

Acceleration of the cart a

To get that, we will use the equation of motion

v = u+at

Substitute the given parameters

8.2 = 3.5+1.5a

1.5a = 8.2-3.5

1.5a = 4.7

a = 4.7/1.5

a = 3.13cm/s²

Hence the acceleration to the cart is 3.13cm/s²
