Which statements describe acceleration? Check all that apply.

Physics
1 answer:
Ad libitum [116K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Negative acceleration occurs when an object slows down in the positive direction.

Negative acceleration occurs when an object speeds up in the negative direction.

Positive acceleration occurs when an object speeds up in the positive direction.

Positive acceleration occurs when an object slows down in the negative direction.

Explanation:

Basically same sign is speeding up and different sign is slowing down

A car cruises at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour. How much time will it take to go 600 miles?
Len [333]
Speed is constant. 50 miles = 1 hour. 600/50 = 12. 1hr(12) = 12 hours.

A student is bicycling north along Main Street to school. Another student is timing the bicycling student in order to determine
MatroZZZ [7]

The average velocity is -4.17 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of a body is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the displacement of the body

t is the time elapsed

For the student in this problem, we have:

Initial position: x_i = 450 m

Final position: x_f = 200 m

So the displacement is

d=x_f -x_i = 200 - 450 = -250 m

The time elapsed is

t = 60 s

Therefore, the average velocity is

v=\frac{-250}{60}=-4.17 m/s

Where the negative sign means the student is moving towards the origin.

A mountain-climber friend with a mass of 74 kg ponders the idea of attaching a helium-filled balloon to himself to effectively r
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

V=16.65 m^3

Explanation:

The volume of the balloon can be find compared the force in each cases so:

reduce 25% from 74kg

R=\frac{25}{100}*74kg=18.5kg

So the net force uproad on the balloon is

F_b=18.5kg*g

Now the density of the both gases air and helium are different however the volume is the same change offcorss the mass so:

P_h=\frac{m}{V}=0.179 kg/m^3

P_A=1.29 kg/m^3

F_b=F_A-F_H

F_b=m_a*g-m_h*g

m=P/V

18.5kg*g=(1.29kg/m^3-0.179kg/m^3*)V*g

V=\frac{18.5kg}{(1.29-0.179)kg/m^3}

V=16.65 m^3

Suppose a car of mass m is moving at a constant speed v of
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The angle of banked curve that makes the reliance on friction unnecessary is

\arcsin(v^2/(gR))

Explanation:

In order the car to stay on the curve without friction, the net force in the direction of radius should be equal or smaller than the centripetal force. Otherwise the car could slide off the curve.

The only force in the direction of radius is the sine component of the weight of the car

w_r = mg\sin(\theta)

The cosine component is equivalent to the normal force, which we will not be using since friction is unnecessary.

Newton’s Second Law states that

F_{net} = ma = mg\sin(\theta)\\\sin(\theta) = a/g

Also, the car is making a circular motion:

a = \frac{v^2}{R}

Combining the equations:

\sin(\theta) = \frac{a}{g} = \frac{v^2/R}{g} = \frac{v^2}{gR}

Finally the angle is

\arcsin(v^2/(gR))
