A cheetah can go from the state of rest to running at 20m/s in just two seconds. What is the Cheetahs average acceleration

Physics

acceleration = change in velocity/change in time

so...

a = 20 m/s / 2 seconds

a = 10


hope that helps :)

Write a question about how changing temperature affects gas
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

"How does the volume of a gas kept at constant pressure change as its temperature is increased?"

Explanation:

One possible question can be:

"How does the volume of a gas kept at constant pressure change as its temperature is increased?"

The answer to this question is contained in Charle's law, which states that for a gas at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature:

V\propto T

Or also written as

\frac{V}{T}=const.

By looking at this equation, we can find immediately the answer to our question: as the (absolute) temperature of the gas increases, the volume increases as well, by the same proportion.

As your skateboard coasts uphill, your speed changes from 3 m/s to 1 m/s in
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

a=-0.33\ m/s^2

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion</u>

The acceleration of a moving body is defined as the relation of change of speed (or velocity in vector form) with the time taken. The formula is given by

\displaystyle a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}

Or, equivalently

\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}

Where vf and vo are the final and initial speeds respectively. The problem gives us these values: v0 = 3 m/s, vf = 1 m/s, t = 3 seconds. Computing a

\displaystyle a=\frac{1-3}{3}=-0.33\ m/s^2

The negative sing of a indicates there is deceleration or decreasing speed

The average speed of a nitrogen molecule in air is about 6.70×102 m/s, and its mass is 4.68×10-26 kg.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

a)   a = 3.06 10¹⁵ m / s , b)    F= 1.43  10⁻¹⁰ N, c)    F_total = 14.32 10⁻²⁶ N

Explanation:

This exercise will average solve using the moment relationship.

a ) let's use the relationship between momentum and momentum

          I = ∫ F dt = Δp

          F t = m v_{f} - m v₀

          F = m (v_{f} -v₀o) / t

 in the exercise indicates that the speed module is the same, but in the opposite direction

          F = m (-2v) / t

if we use Newton's second law

          F = m a

we substitute

            - 2 mv / t = m a

            a = - 2 v / t

let's calculate

            a = - 2 4.59 10²/3 10⁻¹³

            a = 3.06 10¹⁵ m / s

b)      F= m a

        F= 4.68 10⁻²⁶ 3.06 10¹⁵

        F= 1.43  10⁻¹⁰ N

c) if we hit the wall for 1015 each exerts a force F

            F_total = n F

            F_total = n m a

            F_total = 10¹⁵  4.68 10⁻²⁶ 3.06 10¹⁵

            F_total = 14.32 10⁻²⁶ N

A _____ has to do with the direction of a force​
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The "solid force"? ... The direction of the force always seems to be coming out of the solid surface. A direction which is perpendicular to the plane of a surface is said to be normal. The force that a solid surface exerts on anything in the normal direction is called the normal force.

A man pushes a shopping cart across a level floor. What force resists the effort force? A) gravity B) friction C) the normal for
Kipish [7]

Answer:

B) Friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.

For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:

F_f = \mu_k mg

where

\mu_k is the coefficient of kinetic friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.

In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is

F_f = \mu_s mg

where \mu_s is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
