 Find the average acceleration of a northbound subway train that slows down from 12 m/s to 9.6 m/s in 0.8 seconds.​

Answer:

a=-3\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a train, u = 12 m/s

Final speed of a train, v = 9.6 m/s

Time taken, t = 0.8 s

We need to find the average acceleration of the train. We know that the rate of change of velocity is equal to acceleration. So,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{9.6-12}{0.8}\\\\a=-3\ m/s^2

So, the average acceleration of the train is equal to -3\ m/s^2.

Fifteen identical particles have various speeds: one has a speed of 2.00 m/s, two have speeds of 3.00 m/s, three have speeds of
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

a)  V=7.5m/s

b) rms=8.4m/s

c) Generally the most probable speed is 8m/s as it the most posses by particles being the average

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size N=15

  Speed 1 v_1=2m/s\\\\Speed 2 v_2=3m/s\\\\Speed 3 v_2=5m/s\\\\Speed 4 v_4=8m/s\\\\Speed 3 v_5=9m/s\\\\Speed 2 v_6=15m/s\\\\

Generally the equation for Average speed is mathematically given by

 V_{avg}=\frac{\sum(nv)}{N}

Therefore

 V_{avg}=\frac{(2+2(3)+3(5)+4(8)+3(9)+2(15))}{15}

 V=7.5m/s

b)

Generally the equation for RMS speed of the particle is mathematically given by

  rms=\sqrt{\frac{\sum(nv^2)}{N}}

  rms=\sqrt{\frac{2^2+2(3)^2+3(5)^2+4(8)^2+3(9)^2+2(15)^2}{15}}

  rms=\sqrt{69.73}

  rms=8.4m/s

c

Generally the most probable speed is 8m/s as it the most posses by particles being the average

A 1000 kg mass car moved in a straight, horizontal motion, with a speed of 20m / s, when it was involved in an accident. It was
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

average value of the resulting force

Explanation:

The average module value of this resulting force is equivalent to 2.0. 10⁵ N.

The impulse of a force can be calculated by the product of the intensity of the force applied by the time interval in which it is applied -

I = F.Δt

Where,

F = Strength in Newtons

Δt = time interval in seconds

I = Impulse in N.s

The impulse of a force is equivalent to the variation of the amount of movement it causes in the body.

I = ΔQ

The amount of movement is a vector quantity that results from the multiplication of the mass of a body by its speed. Its direction and direction are the same as the velocity vector of the body.  

Q = m-V

As the car goes to rest after the application of force, the amount of final movement of the car is equivalent to zero.

I = 0 - mV

F. Δt = - mV

F. 0,1 = - 1000. 20

F = - 20000/0,1

F = 200,000 N

F = 2,0. 10⁵ N

The net force acting on an object equals the applied force plus the force of friction.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The net force is equal to the applied force minus the force of friction. It is possible for friction to act in the same direction as an applied force, but that would mean there would have to be more than two forces acting on the object.
