Answer:

<em>Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration</em>

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion</u>

Both the velocity and acceleration are vectors because they have magnitude and direction. When the motion is restricted to one dimension, i.e. left-right or up-down, the direction is marked with the sign according to some preset reference.

The locomotive is moving at a certain speed with a (so far) unknown sign but the acceleration has a negative sign. Since the locomotive comes to a complete stop it means the velocity and the acceleration are of opposite signs.

Thus the velocity is positive.

Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration

What are the forces that act on the ball?​
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

This slide shows the three forces that act on a baseball in flight. The forces are the weight, drag, and lift. Lift and drag are actually two components of a single aerodynamic force acting on the ball. Drag acts in a direction opposite to the motion, and lift acts perpendicular to the motion

Suppose the three resistors in the picture represents a 240 W
Airida [17]

A fuse is an electrical safety device which should not blow, which should overheat and melts if current is too high. Its placed in the live wire before the switch. This prevents overheating and catching fire. A fuse have a specific current value for example - 3000 amps. So when choosing a suitable fuse you must use the above minimum value but less than maximum value. For example in a circuit there is 1000W flowing, you should choose more than 1000 amps fuse not less or else, it will melt.

What frequency fapproach is heard by a passenger on a train moving at a speed of 18.0 m/s relative to the ground in a direction
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The frequency is 302.05 Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 18.0 m/s

Suppose a train is traveling at 30.0 m/s relative to the ground in still air. The frequency of the note emitted by the train whistle is 262 Hz .

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

f'=f(\dfrac{v+v_{p}}{v-v_{s}})

Where, f = frequency

v = speed of sound

v_{p} = speed of passenger

v_{s} = speed of source

Put the value into the formula

f'=262\times(\dfrac{344+18}{344-30})

f'=302.05\ Hz

Hence, The frequency is 302.05 Hz.
