Answer:

The distance traveled during its acceleration, d = 214.38 m

Explanation:

Given,

The object's acceleration, a = -6.8 m/s²

The initial speed of the object, u = 54 m/s

The final speed of the object, v = 0

The acceleration of the object is given by the formula,

                                      a = (v - u) / t   m/s²

       ∴                              t = (v - u) / a

                                         = (0 - 54) / (-6.8)

                                         = 7.94 s

The average velocity of the object,

                                       V = (54 + 0)/2

                                           = 27 m/s

The displacement of the object,

                                 d = V x t   meter

                                    = 27 x 7.94

                                    = 214.38 m

Hence, the distance the object traveled during that acceleration is, a = 214.38 m

What is difference between non uniform and uniform circular motion?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The object in a uniform motion covers same distances in an equal time period. Objects in a non-uniform motion cover dissimilar distances in an equal time period.

Explanation:

The speed of the object traveling in uniform motion is constant, the actual speed and the average speed of the moving body is same.

Differences between freezing point and melting point (Atleast 5 differences)​
labwork [276]

Answer:

What is freezing point?

A liquid's freezing point is determined at which it turns into a solid. Corresponding to the melting point, the freezing point often rises with increasing pressure. In the case of combinations and for some organic substances, such as lipids, the freezing point is lower than the melting point. The first solid which develops when a combination freezes often differs in composition from the liquid, and the development of the solid alters the composition of the remaining liquid, typically lowering the freezing point gradually. Utilizing successive melting and freezing to gradually separate the components, this approach is used to purify mixtures.

What is melting point?

The temperature at which a purified substance's solid and liquid phases may coexist in equilibrium is referred to as the melting point. A solid's temperature goes up when heat is added to it until the melting point is achieved. The solid will then turn into a liquid with further heating without changing temperature. Additional heat will raise the temperature of the liquid once all of the solid has melted. It is possible to recognize pure compounds and elements by their distinctive melting temperature, which is a characteristic number.

The difference between freezing point and melting point:

  1. While a substance's melting point develops when it transforms from a solid to a liquid, a substance's freezing point happens when a liquid transforms into a solid when the heat from the substance is removed.
  2. When the temperature rises, the melting point can be seen, and when the temperature falls, the freezing point can be seen.
  3. When a solid reaches its melting point, its volume increases; meanwhile, when a liquid reaches its freezing point, its volume decreases.
  4. While a substance's freezing point is not thought of as a distinctive attribute, its melting point is.
  5. While external pressure is a significant component in freezing point, atmospheric pressure is a significant element in melting point.
  6. Heat must be supplied from an outside source in order to reach the melting point for such a state shift. When a material is at its freezing point, heat is needed to remove it from the substance in order to alter its condition.

Which statement best explains the speed of light waves as they travel from gas to solid?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Light waves slow down as they travel from gas to solid.

Explanation:

The speed of light is often quoted with reference to a vacuum. Light travels fastest in a vacuum and in a gas.

When light travels through other media such as solids or liquids, the speed of light is decreased due to absorption and scattering of photons by molecules as well as remissions.

Hence the speed of light decreases from gas to solid.
