Acceleration =

           (change of speed)  /  (time for the change).

Change of speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

                          =      ( zero )  -  (40 m/s)

                           =        -40 m/s .

Acceleration =  (-40 m/s) / (5 seconds)

                   =    -8 m/s² .

Answer:c will be answer

Explanation:Because u know F=ma so if we wanna know m then we should move a on left side and it will be in divide with f after moving on left side so

Calculate the force of friction for a 5kg aluminum block being pulled with constant velocity (uniform motion) across a horizonta
Stolb23 [73]
The purpose of this lab is to determine whether the surface of an area would affect the coefficient of Friction. My classmates and I have learned a lot in this lab and that there could have been some errors in our lab because the strength of how a person pulls it might be a slight different than the normal force. I learned from this lab that the <span>surface area would have no effect on the coefficient of friction. </span>

In the film, 2001: A Space Odyssey, astronauts travel through space and experience artificial gravity created by a spinning, cyl
katrin2010 [14]

Artificial gravity is created by rotating the cylinder

So here we can say that the acceleration is due to centripetal acceleration

So here we know that the formula of centripetal acceleration is given by

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

so here we know that

a_c = 9.8 m/s^2

v = 30.9 m/s

now we will plug in all values

9.8 = \frac{30.9^2}{R}

R = \frac{30.9^2}{9.8}

R = 97.43 m

So above is the radius of the cylinder

Now to find the diameter

d = 2R

d = 2*97.43

d = 194.8 m

so its diameter is 194.8 m

A car is moving at a constant speed of 14 m/s when the driver presses down on the gas pedal and accelerates for 14 s with an acc
Vinil7 [7]

acceleration of car is 1.8 m/s^2

time = 14 s

initial speed = 14 m/s

so the final speed is calculated by

v_f = v_i + at

v_f = 14 + 14 * 1.8

v_f = 39.2 m/s

so the total distance moved in this interval of time is

d = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}* t

d = \frac{39.2 + 14}{2}* 14

d = 372.4 m

now the average speed is given as

v = \frac{d}{t}

v = \frac{372.4}{14}

v = 26.6 m/s

so the average speed will be 26.6 m/s

An electron is released from a negatively charged plate 0.5m away.The potential difference between the plates is 25v.
Citrus2011 [14]

Explanation:

In brief, electrons are negative charges and protons are positive charges. An electron is considered the smallest quantity of negative charge and a proton the smallest quantity of positive charge.

Two negative charges repel. Also, two positive charges repel. A positive charge and a negative charge attract each other (all experimentally verified.)

Point Charge: An accumulation of electric charges at a point (a tiny volume in space) is called a point charge.

Note: When an atom loses an electron, the separated electron forms a negative charge, but the remaining that contains one less electron or consequently one more proton becomes a positive charge. A positive charge is not necessarily a single proton. In most cases, a positive charge is an atom that has lost one or more electron(s).
