A car is traveling at 30m/s it accelerates steadily for 5 s after which it is travelling at 50 m/s calculate its acceleration?

2 answers:

Formula for acceleration: a = v-v0/t
a is acceleration, v is final velocity and v0 is starting velocity, t is time
Now plug it in
a = 50m/s - 30 m/s = 20 m/s/ 5s = 4 m/s^2
The acceleration is 4 m/s^3

For this question , we should apply
a = v - u by t
Given - u = 30m/s
v = 50m/s
t = 5 secs
Solution :
a = v - u by t
a = 50 - 30 by 5
a = 20 by 5
( cut 5 and 20 because 5 x 4 = 20 )
a = 4 m/s^2

.:. The acceleration is 4 m/s^2

What is the magnitude of the dipole moment formed by separating a proton and an electron by 100 pm

amm1812

When two electrical charges, of opposite sign and equal magnitude, are separated by a distance, a dipole is established. The size of a dipole is measured by its dipole moment . Dipole moment is measured in Debye units, which is equal to the distance between the charges multiplied by the charge

Dipolemoment 'D' = e x d where e= charge and d= distance by which charge is separated. 
In this case e = charge on electron = 1.6 x10^-19 C

D = 1.6 x10^-19 C ( 1x10^-10 m) =1.6x10^-29 Cm

A block of aluminium of density 7900 kg/m3 has a volume of 250 cm. Find the mass of the block.

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

mass of block=2.7 gm

Explanation:

concept: Density=mass/volume

given:ρ=2700 kg/m^3 and v=250 cm^3 (in cm^3 not in m^3)

=> v= convert cm^3 to m^3

there fore= 1 cm^3=1 cm*1 cm*1 cm

i.e 1 cm^3=1/100*1/00*1/100 m^3 => 1 cm^3=1/1000000 m^3

ρ=m/v

=>mass=ρ*volume

=>mass=2700*1/10^-6

=>mass=2.7*10^-3 kg =>2.7 gm

football game customarily begins with a coin toss to determine who kicks off. The referee tosses the coin up with an initial spe

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

1.28 m

Explanation:

You are given the initial speed that is 5 m/s. Since the coin is sent upwards, this means that the speed is positive according to the co-ordinate system in the y axis. Additionally, there is the gravity that curbs the coin in the opposite direction making the final speed becomes zero at the highest point, so the gravity takes negative sign.
