The equation we can use here is:

v^2 = v0^2 + 2 a d

where v is final velocity, v0 is intial velocity, a is acceleration and d is distance

 

14^2 = 8^2 + 2 a (44)

The acceleration of the car travelling in a straight line is \fbox{\begin\\1.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}\end{minispace}}.

Further Explanation:

A car travelling in a straight line with a constant uniform acceleration will always follow the Newton’s law of motion.

Given:

The initial velocity of the car is 8\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}.

The final velocity of the car is 14\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}.

The total distance covered by the car is 44\,{\text{m}}.

Concept:

The car is following the Newton’s law of motion. As per the Newton's laws of motion, the motion of a body is governed by the three equations of motion.

To calculate the uniform acceleration of car when initial velocity, final velocity, and distance covered by car given, the equation of motion we can use here is:

\fbox{\begin\\v^2 = {u^2} + 2as\end{minispace}}

Rearrange the above equation for value of acceleration :

a=\dfrac{{{v^2}-{u^2}}}{{2s}}

Here, s is the distance covered by car, u is the given initial velocity of the car, v is the given final velocity of the car and a is the acceleration of the car.

Substitute 14\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}} for v, 8\,{{\text{m}} \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {{\text{m}} {\text{s}}}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} {\text{s}}} for u and 44\,{\text{m}} for s in the above equation.

\begin{aligned}a&=\dfrac{{{{\left({14\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}}\right)}^2}-{{\left({8\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{\text{s}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{\text{s}}}}\right)}^2}}}{{2\times44}}\\&=1.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the acceleration of the car travelling in a straight line is \fbox{\begin\\1.5\,{{\text{m}}\mathord{\left/{\vphantom{{\text{m}}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}}\right.\kern-\nulldelimiterspace}{{{\text{s}}^{\text{2}}}}}\end{minispace}}.

We have three identical metallic spheres A, B, C. Initially sphere A is charged with charge Q, while B and C are neutral. First,
larisa [96]

Answer:

The final charges of each sphere are:   q_A = 3/8 Q , q_B = 3/8 Q ,               q_C = 3/4 Q

Explanation:

This problem asks for the final charge of each sphere, for this we must use that the charge is distributed evenly over a metal surface.

Let's start Sphere A makes contact with sphere B, whereby each one ends with half of the initial charge, at this point

                q_A = Q / 2

                q_B = Q / 2

Now sphere A touches sphere C, ending with half the charge

                q_A = ½ (Q / 2) = ¼ Q

                q_B = ¼ Q

Now the sphere A that has Q / 4 of the initial charge is put in contact with the sphere B that has Q / 2 of the initial charge, the total charge is the sum of the charge

                  q = Q / 4 + Q / 2 = ¾ Q

This is the charge distributed between the two spheres, sphere A is 3/8 Q and sphere B is 3/8 Q

                  q_A = 3/8 Q

                  q_B = 3/8 Q

The final charges of each sphere are:

                q_A = 3/8 Q

                q_B = 3/8 Q

                q_C = 3/4 Q

Help. I need to find the degree using the sine law.
Marina CMI [18]
Use pythagorean theorem
a ^{2}  + b {}^{2}  = c {}^{2}
to find the opposite side, which is 7.3

so then you can just use inverse sinA=7.3/10 which equals 46.9 degrees
