Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Acceleration = (30 m/s - 15 m/s) / (36 sec)  = 

                                   (15 m/s) = (36 sec)  =  5/12  m/s²

Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Force =  (15 kg) x (5/12 m/s²)  =<em>  6.25 newtons</em>  (about 1.4 pounds)

The energy of an onject as it is in motion is defined as?
Ivan

The energy of an object as it is in motion is defined as Kinetic energy.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The energy that is attained by an object when it is moving is called as Kinetic energy. It is the amount of energy that is essential for inducing an acceleration in an object and making it to displace from its idle position to the destination. When an object attains the acceleration it can have this kinetic energy until there is a change in the speed of the object with which it moves.

The forms of energy changes and it can take any form like thermal, electrical, electromagnetic,etc. Potential and kinetic energy are the two things under which these forms are energy are grouped. There can be a transferring of Kinetic energy from one object to another. The kinetic energy can also take any form of energy.

What happens when a star comes to an end?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

It depends on the size of the star but I think it's B

Explanation:

If the star is massive, it will eventually explode (supernova) and if it is a star with a high mass, the core of it will form a neutron star and if it is very massive the core will turn into a blackhole

What is the change in velocity of a 15 kg object that experiences a 5 N force for 0.3 seconds?
alukav5142 [94]

Hello!

Δv = 0.1 m/s

Use the equation F = m · a to solve for the acceleration:

5 = 15 · a

a = 1/3

The equation to solve for acceleration can be rewritten to solve for the change in velocity:

Δv / t = a

Δv = at

We are given the acceleration and time, therefore:

Δv = (1/3)(0.3)

Δv = 0.1 m/s

Explain how an electrical wet cell functions.
Fynjy0 [20]
The chemical reaction causes electricity to flow through the terminals to the load attached. Some of the acid in the battery remains on the plates as it flows through. When the battery is recharged the acid is returned to the liquid solution to provide more power later.
