Answer:

Acceleration = -3m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 19m/s

Final velocity = 3m/s

Time = 2secs

To find the acceleration;

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time. Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

$Acceleration (a) = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$a = \frac{3 - 9}{2}$

$a = \frac{-6}{2}$

Acceleration = -3m/s²

The value for her acceleration is negative because she is decelerating i.e her final velocity is lower than her initial velocity.

Convert 43 km/h to m/s.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

43km/h to m/s = 11.9444

Explanation:

1 km = 1000 m; 1 hr = 3600 sec. To convert km/hr into m/sec, multiply the number by 5 and then divide it by 18.

Find the rms speed of the molecules of a sample of n2 (diatomic nitrogen) gas at a temperature of 31.5°c.

Artemon [7]

The rms speed can be calculated using the following rule:
rms = sqrt ((3RT) / (M)) where:
R is the gas constant = 8.314 J/mol-K
T is the temperature = 31.5 + 273 = 304.5 degrees kelvin
M is the molar mass = 2*14 = 28 grams = 0.028 kg

Substitute with the givens to get the rms speed as follows:
rms speed = sqrt [(3*8.314*304.5) / (0.028)] = 520.811 m/sec

A mass m attached to a horizontal massless spring with spring constant k, is set into simple harmonic motion. its maximum displa

Lesechka [4]

At the point of maximum displacement (a), the elastic potential energy of the spring is maximum:
$U_i= \frac{1}{2} ka^2$
while the kinetic energy is zero, because at the maximum displacement the mass is stationary, so its velocity is zero:
$K_i =0$
And the total energy of the system is
$E_i = U_i+K= \frac{1}{2}ka^2$

Viceversa, when the mass reaches the equilibrium position, the elastic potential energy is zero because the displacement x is zero:
$U_f = 0$
while the mass is moving at speed v, and therefore the kinetic energy is
$K_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$
And the total energy is
$E_f = U_f + K_f = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

For the law of conservation of energy, the total energy must be conserved, therefore $E_i = E_f$ . So we can write
$\frac{1}{2} ka^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
that we can solve to find an expression for v:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{ka^2}{m} }$

Which change will increase the speed of a sound wave traveling in a solid aluminum rod? changing the rod from a solid to a liqui

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

increasing the temperature of the rod

Explanation:

Sound wave is a longitudinal wave and its speed in a solid rod is given by the formula

$v = \sqrt{\frac{Y}{\rho}}$

here we know that

Y = young's modulus

$\rho$ = density of the medium

so as we increase the temperature of rod the density of the rod will decrease while the elasticity will remain same

So on increasing the temperature we can say that speed will increase due to decrease in the density
