Answer:

A: All of the above

Explanation:

The instantaneous speed of an object is simply the current seed of the object at any given time. The SI unit is m/S and it is a vector quantity.

Therefore, according to the given options, they all have SI units that are consistent with distance and time which makes them all an example of instantaneous speed.

What is the difference between gravitational force and the force of gravity

statuscvo [17]

This might help and it might not:

Gravitation is the acting force between two bodies. On the other hand, gravity is the force occurring between an object and the very big object earth. Every object with some mass exerts the gravitational force on every other object having some mass. This force and its strength depend on the masses of the objects under consideration. Gravity helps to keep the planets to move in their orbit around the sun.

Gravitation is the force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe. In our universe, each object attracts each other with a certain amount of force. The large distance of separation is the main reason for its weak nature.

Gravity is the weakest type of fundamental force in nature. Still, it holds together the entire solar systems and galaxies.

Gravity has the existence with unlimited range.

A 10 kg block is attached to a light cord that is wrapped around the pulley of an electric motor, as shown above. If the motor r

Anika [276]

Answer:

156.8 Watts

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 10 kg

Height (h) = 8 m

Time (t) = 5 s

Power (P) =?

Next, we shall determine the energy used by the motor to raise the block. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 10 kg

Height (h) = 8 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

E = mgh

E = 10 × 9. 8 × 8

E = 784 J

Finally, we shall determine the power output of the motor. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Time (t) = 5 s

Energy (E) = 784 J

Power (P) =?

P = E/t

P = 784 / 5

P = 156.8 Watts

Therefore, the power output of the motor is 156.8 Watts

8. A turtle crawls along a straight line, which we will call the x-axis with the positive direction to the right. The equation f

pychu [463]

(a) The turtle's initial velocity is 4 m/s, initial position of the turtle is 5 cm, and initial acceleration is -1.25 m/s².

(b) The time when the velocity of the turtle is zero is 3.2 s.

(d) The time taken for the turtle to travel 30 cm is 0.08 s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the turtle</h3>

The initial velocity of the turtle is calculated as follows;

$v = \frac{dx}{dt} \\\\x = 5 + 4t -0.625t^2\\\\v(t) = 4 - 1.25t\\\\v(0) = 4-0\\\\v(0) = 4 \ m/s$

<h3>Initial acceleration of the turtle</h3>

The initial acceleration of the turtle is calculated as follows;

$a = \frac{dv}{dt} \\\\v(t) = 4 - 1.25t\\\\a = -1.25\ m/s^2$

<h3>Initial position of the turtle</h3>

x(t) = 5 + 4t - 0.625t²

x(0) = 5 cm

<h3>Time when the velocity becomes zero</h3>

v(t) = 4 - 1.25t

0 = 4 - 1.25t

1.25t = 4

t = 4/1.25

t = 3.2 s

<h3>Time taken to return to starting point</h3>

The total distance traveled is calculated as follows

v² = u² + 2ad

0 = (4)² + 2(-1.25)d

0 = 16 - 2.5d

2.5d = 16

d = 16/2.5

d = 6.4 m

Time to travel the given distance;

d = ut + ¹/₂at²

6.4 = (4)t + ¹/₂(-1.25)t²

6.4 = 4t - 0.625t²

0.625t² - 4t + 6.4 = 0

solve the quadratic equation using formula method;

t = 3.2 s

The time travel the distance two times, = 2 x 3.2 s = 6.4 s

<h3>Time taken for the turtle to travel 30 cm</h3>

d = ut + ¹/₂at²

0.3 = (4)t + ¹/₂(-1.25)t²

0.3 = 4t - 0.625t²

0.625t² - 4t + 0.3 = 0

solve the quadratic equation using formula method;

t = 0.08 s
