A rocket sled accelerates from 10 m/s to 40 m/s in 2 seconds. What is the average acceleration of the sled?

Physics
1 answer:
Andreas93 [3]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

15m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 10m/s

Final velocity  = 40m/s

Time taken  = 2s

Unknown:

Average acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time;

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

  Acceleration = \frac{40 - 10}{2}    = 15m/s²

If a 1 kg book has 46 Joules of gravitational potential energy how high is the shelf it is on?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

4.7m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the book  = 1kg

Gravitational potential energy  = 46J

Unknown:

Height of the shelf  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy is due to the position of a body above the ground.

        Gravitational potential energy  = mgh

m is the mass,

g is the acceleration due gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height which is unknown

                       46  = 1 x 9.8 x h

                       h  = 4.7m

If two balls collide with each other, they will move apart at the same speed if
denis-greek [22]
A.
if you have seen a newton's cradle this will make sense.

in order for both of them to travel at the same speed, the balls need to have the same mass and the speed to begin with tocontinue to travel at the same speed because mass can affect the impact of the force on the balls by each other, causing each ball to have different speeds.

What displacement in cm would occur with a 75 N/m spring if you placed a 300 N weight on the spring?
ollegr [7]

Surface tension=75N/m

Weight=300N

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Surface\:Tension=\dfrac{Weight}{Displacement}

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=\dfrac{Weight}{Surface\:Tension}

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=\dfrac{300}{75}

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=4m

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=400cm
