QUESTION 2 DOK 3 A Thompson's gazelle has a maximum acceleration of 4.5 m/s2 At this acceleration, how much time is required for

it to reach a speed of 40 km/h?​
Physics

Answer:

2.47 s

Explanation:

Convert the final velocity to m/s.

  • 40 km/h → 11.1111 m/s

We have the acceleration of the gazelle, 4.5 m/s².

We can assume the gazelle starts at an initial velocity of 0 m/s in order to determine how much time it requires to reach a final velocity of 11.1111 m/s.

We want to find the time t.

Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables.

  • v = v₀ + at

Substitute the known values into the equation.

  • 11.1111 = 0 + (4.5)t
  • 11.1111 = 4.5t
  • t = 2.469133333

The Thompson's gazelle requires a time of 2.47 s to reach a speed of 40 km/h (11.1111 m/s).

What do the arrows in this photograph represent
babunello [35]

Answer: D. An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: When you sit in your chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. Another example would be a person pushing against a wall (action force), and the wall exerts an equal and opposite force against the person.

Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the initial velocity of the object is greater?
DIA [1.3K]
Yes. Even greater. Air resistance or drag becomes harder the faster an object goes. This is why when cars reach their max speed they don't accelerate as fast, because they are pushing harder against the wind. If I take a tennis ball and shoot it down a bottomless pit, a 400 kph, the drag will slow the ball down till it reaches terminal velocity.

Natali [406]

centripetal acceleration is given by formula

a_c = \omega^2*R

given that

a_c = 34.1 m/s^2

R  =  5.91 m

now we have

\omega^2 R = 34.1

\omega^2 * 5.91 = 34.1

\omega^2 = 5.77

\omega = 2.4 rad/s

so the ratationa frequency is given by

\omega = 2 \pi f

2.4 = 2 \pi f

f = \frac{2.4}{2\pi}

f = 0.38 Hz

does increasing the frequency of a wave also increase its wavelength if not how are these quantities related​
Aleks [24]

Answer: Increasing the frequency does not increase the wavelength. They are inversely related.

Explanation:

As wavelength increases, frequency decreases. If you look at a transverse wave and it has a long wavelength, there only a few waves produce. Which means there is less frequency produced. So as wavelength increases, frequency decreases. The other way around can work to. As frequency increases, wavelength decreases. They are inversely related.
