Answer:

1.167 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that a race car is accelerating at 5m/s and then speeds up to a final velocity of 12 m/s if the race car driver finished this let of the race in 6 seconds what was the car's acceleration ?

From the question, the following parameters are given

Initial velocity U = 5 m/s

Final velocity V = 12 m/s

Time t = 6 s

According to the definition of acceleration:

Acceleration = change in velocity per time taken.

I.e

Acceleration =( V - U)/ t

Acceleration =( 12 - 5 )/6

Acceleration = 7/6

Acceleration = 1.167 m/s^2

Therefore, acceleration is 1.167 m/s^2

Answer:

the acceleration of the car is 1.167 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the race car, u = 5 m/s

final velocity of the race car, v = 12 m/s

time to finish the race, t = 6 s

The acceleration of the car is calculated as;

a = (v - u) / t

a = (12 - 5) / (6)

a = 1.167 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the car is 1.167 m/s²

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

470 N.

Explanation:

Using equations of motion:

S = vi*t + 1/2*(a*(t^2))

Given:

S = 0.65 m

t = 1.5 s

vi = 0 m/s

0.65 = 1/2 * (a * (1.5)^2)

a = 1.3/2.25

= 0.578 m/s^2

Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

= 92 * 0.578

= 53.16 N

Total force = 420 + 53.16

= 473.16 N

= 470 N.

What is the minimal mass of helium (density 0.18 kg/m3) needed to lift a balloon carrying two people in a basket, if the total m
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:   
 M[min] = M[basket+people+ balloon, not gas] * ΔR/R[b] 
 Î”R is the difference in density between the gas inside and surrounding the balloon. 
 R[b] is the density of gas inside the baloon.   
 ==================================== 
 Let V be the volume of helium required. 
 Upthrust on helium = Weight of the volume of air displaced = Density of air * g * Volume of helium = 1.225 * g * V   
 U = 1.225gV newtons 
 ---- 
 Weight of Helium = Volume of Helium * Density of Helium * g 
 W[h] = 0.18gV N   
 Net Upward force produced by helium, F = Upthrust - Weight = (1.225-0.18) gV = 1.045gV N  -----

 
 Weight of 260kg = 2549.7 N 
 Then to lift the whole thing, F > 2549.7 
 So minimal F would be 2549.7 
 ---- 
 1.045gV = 2549.7 
 V = 248.8 m^3   
 Mass of helium required = V * Density of Helium = 248.8 * 0.18 = 44.8kg (3sf)   
 =====   
 Let the density of the surroundings be R 
 Then U-W = (1-0.9)RgV = 0.1RgV   
 So 0.1RgV = 2549.7 N 
 V = 2549.7 / 0.1Rg   
 Assuming that R is again 1.255, V = 2071.7 m^3 
 Then mass of hot air required = 230.2 * 0.9R = 2340 kg   
 Notice from this that M = 2549.7/0.9Rg * 0.1R so   
 M[min] = Weight of basket * (difference in density between balloon's gas and surroundings / density of gas in balloon)   
 M[min] = M[basket] * ΔR/R[b]

Plz help me! <br><br> How do electromagnetic fields work?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Electromagnetic field, a property of space caused by the motion of an electric charge. A stationary charge will produce only an electric field in the surrounding space. If the charge is moving, a magnetic field is also produced. An electric field can be produced also by a changing magnetic field.
