Yes, this is a true statement.
gravity is so important.
Answer:
Explanation:
We need only to apply the definition of acceleration, which is:
In our case the final velocity is 
, the initial velocity is 
since it departs from rest, the final time is 
and the initial time we are considering is 
So for our values we have:
Answer:
40 cm
Explanation:
The focus of a spherical convex mirror is the point at which the rays of an object converge in the infinite, it is also the point at which an object must be placed so that its image is formed in the infinite. The distance from the focus to the origin is called the focal length and is called f. It is related to the radius of the mirror, R, according to:
rewriting for R:
.
I don't think that 4m has anything to do with the problem.
anyway. here.
A___________________B_______C
where A is the point that the train was released.
B is where the wheel started to stick
C is where it stopped
From A to B, v=2.5m/s, it takes 2s to go A to B so t=2
AB= v*t = 2.5 * 2 = 5m
The train comes to a stop 7.7 m from the point at which it was released so AC=7.7m
then BC= AC-AB = 7.7-5 = 2.7m
now consider BC
v^2=u^2+2as
where u is initial speed, in this case is 2.5m/s
v is final speed, train stop at C so final speed=0, so v=0
a is acceleration
s is displacement, which is BC=2.7m
substitute all the number into equation, we have
0^2 = 2.5^2 + 2*a*2.7
0 = 6.25 + 5.4a
a = -6.25/5.4 = -1.157
so acceleration is -1.157m/(s^2)
