Explanation:

a = (Vf-Vi)/t

= (10m/s - 15m/s)/2s

a = -5 / 2 m/s^2

• so the dog diaccelerate at the rate of 5/2 m/s^2

hope it helps

Using an example, explain how small atoms are.

Aliun [14]

Unlike a ball, an atom doesn't have a fixed radius. The radius of an atom can only be found by measuring the distance between the nuclei of two touching atoms, and then halving that distance... Does that answer your question?

Find the uniform acceleration that causes a car's velocity to change from 20.0 m/s to 105 m/s in and 12.0 s

Sauron [17]

Answer:

7.08 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 20.0 m/s

v = 105 m/s

t = 12.0 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

105 m/s = a (12.0 s) + 20.0 m/s

a = 7.08 m/s²

Two charged particles, with charges q1=q and q2=4q, are located at a distance d= 2.00cm apart on the x axis. A third charged par

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

X₃₁ = 0.58 m and X₃₂ = -1.38 m

Explanation:

For this exercise we use Newton's second law where the force is the Coulomb force

F₁₃ - F₂₃ = 0

F₁₃ = F₂₃

Since all charges are of the same sign, forces are repulsive

F₁₃ = k q₁ q₃ / r₁₃²

F₂₃ = k q₂ q₃ / r₂₃²

Let's find the distances

r₁₃ = x₃- 0

r₂₃ = 2 –x₃

We substitute

k q q / x₃² = k 4q q / (2-x₃)²

q² (2 - x₃)² = 4 q² x₃²

4- 4x₃ + x₃² = 4 x₃²

5x₃² + 4 x₃ - 4 = 0

We solve the quadratic equation

x₃ = [-4 ±√(16 - 4 5 (-4)) ] / 2 5

x₃ = [-4 ± 9.80] 10

X₃₁ = 0.58 m

X₃₂ = -1.38 m

For this two distance it is given that the two forces are equal
