<u>We are given:</u><u>_______________________________________________</u>

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

acceleration (a) = 0.8 m/s²

time interval (t) = 8 seconds

final velocity (v) = v m/s

distance travelled (s) = s m

<u>Solving for the final velocity:</u><u>___________________________________</u>

We know that:

v = u + at [first equation of motion]

v = 0 + (0.8)(8) [replacing the variables]

v = 6.4 m/s

Hence, the final velocity is 6.4 m/s

<u>Solving for the distance travelled:</u><u>_______________________________</u>

We know that:

s = ut + 1/2(at²) [second equation of motion]

s = (0)(8) + 1/2(0.8)(8)(8) [replacing the variables]

s = 1/2(6.4*8)

s = 25.6 m

Hence, the distance travelled is 25.6 m

Without friction, what is the mass of an ball accelerating at 1.8 m/sec2 to which an

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the object can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a} \\$

f is the force

a is the acceleration

From the question we have

$m = \frac{42}{1.8} = 23.3333... \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Suppose a car travels 106 km at a speed of 28 m/s and uses 1.9 gals of gasoline in the process. Only 30% of the gasoline goes in

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the force is 968 N

b) For a constant speed of 30 m/s, the magnitude of the force is 1,037 N

Explanation:

<em>NOTE: The question b) will be changed in other to give a meaningful answer, because it is the same speed as the original (the gallons would be 1.9, as in the original).</em>

Information given:

d = 106 km = 106,000 m

v1 = 28 m/s

G = 1.9 gal

η = 0.3

Eff = 1.2 x 10^8 J/gal

a) We can express the energy used as the work done. This work has the following expression:

$W=F\cdot d$

Then, we can derive the magnitude of the force as:

$F=\frac{W}{d}=\frac{\eta\cdot (G\cdot Eff)}{d}=\frac{0.3*1.9*(1.8*10^8)}{106*10^3} =968\,N$

b) We will calculate the force for a speed of 30 m/s.

If the force is proportional to the speed, we have:

$F_2=F_1(\frac{v_2}{v_1} )=968(\frac{30}{28} )=968*1.0714=1,037\,N$

Think about lifestyle choices that you make on a daily basis. Choose at least four lifestyle choices which you could change to i

eimsori [14]

A.The four lifestyle choices which I could change are:
1. The amount of physical exercise I engage in on a daily basis.
2, The number of hours I sleep.
3. The quantity of junk foods I consume daily and
4. Cultivation of the habit of spending time alone daily.
B. My days are always very busy, so I do not engage at all in physical exercise. Adding at least a thirty minute of physical exercise to my daily tasks will improve my health considerable. Due to the nature of my day, I usually eat on the move, thus I eat junk foods everyday. Eating healthy and balanced diet will go a long way in improving my health. I sleep for three hours only everyday, from 2 am to 5 am.This is because I have to leave my house very early in the morning and I don't usually get to sleep until 2 am in the morning. Spending more hours sleeping will improve my overall health. I want to start spending at least 30 minutes alone on a daily basis in order to meditate and to reflect over the events of the day. This will be a great boost to my mental health.

If this resolving power is diffraction-limited, to what effective diameter of your eye's optical system does this correspond? us

"This resolving power" was obviously stated earlier, somewhere before the point where you started copying. With no resolving power specified, there's actually no question, and so no answer.
