What constant acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 20 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 3 seconds

Physics
1 answer:
sdas [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity

a = (51 - 20) / 3 = 10⅓ mi/hr/s

which should probably be converted to standard units.

10⅓ mi/hr/s(5280 ft/mi) / 3600 s/hr) = 15.15555... ≈ 15.2 ft/s²

which is roughly half the acceleration of gravity.

A ball of mass m is thrown straight upward from ground level at speed v0. At the same instant, at a distance D above the ground,
Alla [95]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the balls collide after time t .

distance covered by falling ball

s₁ = v₀ t + 1/2 g t²

distance covered by rising ball

s₂ = v₀ t - 1/2 g t²

Given ,

s₁ + s₂ = D

D = v₀ t + 1/2 g t² + v₀ t - 1/2 g t²

= 2v₀ t

t = D / 2v₀

s₂ = v₀ t - 1/2 g t²

= v₀ x D / 2v₀ - (1/2) x  g x D² / 4v₀²

= D / 2 - gD² / 8 v₀²

A pump uses a piston of 15 cm diameter that moves at 2.0 cm/s as it pushes a fluid through a pipe. what is the speed of the flui
Nitella [24]
The important point here is that volumetric flow rate in the pump and the pipe is the same.

Q = AV, where Q = Volumetric flow  rate, A = Cross sectional area, V = velocity

Q (pump) = (π*15^2)/4*2 = 353.43 cm^3/s
Q (pipe) = (π*(3/10)^2)/4*V = 0.071V

Q (pump) = Q (pipe)
0.071V = 353.43 => V = 5000 cm/s

Therefore, the flow  of water in the pipe is 5000 cm/s.

The current in a toaster is 20 amps, and its voltage is 200 volts. What is the resistance in the toaster?
alukav5142 [94]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. 

V = IR
200 = 20R
R = 10 ohms</span>
