Answer:

Explanation:

Although we do have an equation for this in terms of one-dimensional motion, it's easy enough just to use the mathematical definition of acceleration:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}$ which says, in words, the acceleration of an object is equal to the objects final velocity minus its initial velocity, divided by the change in time. Since everything is given in m and s, our answer will be in m/s/s:

$a=\frac{16.0-4.0}{4.0}$ and

$a=\frac{12.0}{4.0}$ so

a = 3.0 m/s/s

Calculate the speed of a car that travels 250 miles in 4.0 hours. (remember your unit)

MrRa [10]

250/4= 62.5 mph

to find the mph of a car, you need to divide the number of miles traveled by the hours that it took to travel that many miles

It took 500 newtons of force to push a car 4 meters. How much work was done?

Which situation is the best analogy for the doppler effect?

Rudiy27

The best scenario to describe the doppler effect would be listening to the siren of a passing ambulance or fire truck

then it is coming towards you, the pitch is higher, it gets higher as it approaches and peaks as it gets right in front of you. then it drop at once when it passes you and continues to drop till it fades away. this is a classic descrption of the doppler effect

You are at the edge of a diving board that is 9 meters above the water. If you weigh 500 Newtons, what is your potential energy?

Semenov [28]

Answer:

4500 J

Explanation:

First, let's define some equations and derivations.

Our potential energy formula is:

$\displaystyle U = mgh$

Where m is mass (in kg), g is the gravitational constant (in m/s²), and h is height (in m).

We also know that mg is equal to the weight of an object (in N), from Newton's 2nd Law of Motion: F = ma (Force is equal to [constant] mass times acceleration).

Therefore, we can simply substitute force into the equation:

$\displaystyle U = Fh$

Where F is the force (in N) and h is still height (in m).

Now we can calculate the amount of potential energy in our system, measured in joules.

Substitute in the given variables, F = 500 N and h = 9 m:

$\displaystyle U = (500 \ N)(9 \ m)$

Using simple Pre-Algebra rules, we find that:

$\displaystyle U = 4500 \ J$

This tells us that the we have 4500 joules of potential energy when I am 9 meters above the water on the edge of the diving board.

Finish A 16 N force is applied to an object and 96 J of work is done. How far was the object moved?

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 6 \ meters}}$

Explanation:

Work is the product of force and distance.

$W=F*d$

We know that 96 Joules of work were done and a 16 Newton force was applied to the object.

W= 96 J
F= 16 N

Substitute the values into the formula.

$96 \ J= 16 \ N * d$

First, let's convert the units. This will make cancelling units easier later in the problem. 1 Joule (J) is equal to 1 Newton meter (N*m), so the work of 96 Joules equals 96 Newton meters.

$96 \ N*m= 16 \ N * d$

Now, solve for distance by isolating the variable, d. It is being multiplied by 16 Newtons and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 16 N.

$\frac {96 \ N*m}{16 \ N}= \frac{16 \ N *d}{16 \ N}$

$\frac {96 \ N*m}{16 \ N}=d$

The units of Newtons cancel.

$\frac {96}{16} \ m = d$

$6 \ m = d$

The object moved a distance of 6 meters.
