A bus initially moving at 20 m/s with an acceleration of -4m/s² for 5

Physics
1 answer:
Alborosie3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

50m; 0m/s.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 20m/s

Acceleration, a = - 4m/s²

Time, t = 5secs

To find the displacement, we would use the second equation of motion;

S = ut + \frac {1}{2}at^{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

S =20*5 + \frac{1}{2}*(-4)*5^{2}

S =100 + (-2)*25

S =100 - 50

S = 50m

Next, to find the final velocity, we would use the third equation of motion;

V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS

Where;

  • V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.
  • U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.
  • a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

<em>Substituting into the equation, we have;</em>

V^{2} = 20^{2} + 2(-4)*50

V^{2} = 400 - 400

V^{2} = 0

V = 0m/s

<em>Therefore, the displacement of the bus is 50m and its final velocity is 0m/s.</em>

How do mass and speed affect kinetic energy?
Lunna [17]
The mass affects the kinetic energy because the more the mass the more energy is given to the object and the speed<span> affects by making it go faster and longer, so whenever speed goes up so does energy.</span>

When you let the air go out of a balloon the balloon moves or shoots like a rocket. Would this happen if there was no surroundin
Pie

Answer:

The balloon would still move like a rocket

Explanation:

The principle of work of this system is the Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action), object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the balloon as object A and the air inside the balloon as object B. As the air goes out from the balloon, the balloon exerts a force (backward) on the air, and as a result of Newton's 3rd law, the air exerts an equal and opposite force (forward) on the balloon, making it moving forward.

This mechanism is not affected by the presence or absence of surrounding air: in fact, this mechanism also works in free space, where there is no air (and in fact, rockets also moves in space using this system, despite the absence of air).
