If the acceleration is constant (negative or positive) the instantaneous acceleration cannot be
Average acceleration: [final velocity - initial velocity ] /Δ time
Instantaneous acceleration = d V / dt =slope of the velocity vs t graph
If acceleration is increasing, the slope of the curve at one moment will be higher than the average acceleration.
If acceleration is decreasing, the slope of the curve at one moment will be lower than the average acceleration.
If acceleration is constant, the acceleration at any moment is the same, then only at constant accelerations, the instantaneuos acceleration is the same than the average acceleration.
Constant zero acceleration is a particular case of constant acceleration, so at constant zero acceleration the instantaneous accelerations is the same than the average acceleration: zero. But, it is not true that only at zero acceleration the instantaneous acceleration is equal than the average acceleration.
That is why the only true option and the answer is the option D. only at constant accelerations.
Answer:
Icy roads
Explanation:
There is so little friction you slide on it way more than other roads. :)
<span>To begin, the mouse walks from 5 to 12 cm, for a displacement of 7 cm. Next, it walks 8 cm in the opposite direction, for a total displacement of (7 + [-8]) or (-1) cm. This leaves the mouse on 4 cm, and then it walks from there to the 7cm location, for a displacement of 7-4 or +3 cm. Adding 3cm to -1cm gives a final displacement of +2cm.</span>
Answer:
Change/ Potential
Explanation:
Work is the amount of energy required to perform an action that is for a force to cause a displacement.
From work-energy theorem, work done by body is equal to change in its kinetic energy.
Work of gravity is basically the potential energy stored in the body due to gravity. From the law of conservation of mechanical energy, increased kinetic energy comes from the change of the potential energy of the stone.
Answer: 3.75 joules
Explanation:
Given that:
Mass of acorn = 0.300 kilograms
velocity = 5.oo m/s
Kinetic energy = ?
Since, kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, its value depends on the mass M and velocity V of the acorn.
Thus, Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mv^2
= 1/2 x 0.300kg x (5.00m/s)^2
= 0.5 x 0.3kg x (5.00m/s)^2
= 0.15 x (5.00m/s)^2
= 3.75 joules
Thus, the kinetic energy of the falling acorn is 3.75 joules
