Light travels in a straight line at a constant speed of 300000 m/s. What is the acceleration of light?

Physics
1 answer:
mafiozo [28]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

As light travels in a straight line at a constant speed, it's acceleration is <u>0 m/s²</u>.

There is no rate of change of speed, so there is no acceleration.

  • <u>0 m/s²</u> is the right answer.

A reconnaissance plane flies 605 km away from
kolezko [41]

Answer:

                      v_{avg}  = 355 m/s  

Explanation:

Distance = 605 km

Initial speed = v_{i} = 284 m/s

Final velocity = v_{f} = 426 m/s

Average speed = ?

There is two method two find average speed. In first method, using 3rd equation of motion, we find acceleration.

                        2as = v_{f}^{2}+v_{i}^{2}

Then using first equation of motion, we find time

                        v_{f} = v_{i}+at

Then using the formula of average velocity, we find average velocity

                         v_{avg}=\frac{total-distance}{total-time}

Second method is very simple

                                  v_{avg}=\frac{v_{f}+v_{i} }{2}

                                   v_{avg}=\frac{426+284}{2}

                                   v_{avg}  = 355 m/s

What constant acceleration (in ft/s2) is required to increase the speed of a car from 27 mi/h to 50 mi/h in 5 seconds
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

6.746 ft/s^2

Explanation:

v(t)=50

v(0)=27

t=5/3600 = 1/720 hours

v(t)-v(0)= a(t-0)

50-27= a(1/720)

a= 23*720= 16560 mi/h^2

16560mi/h^2 * 5280/3600^2 (ft/s^2) =6.746 ft/s^2

If tides occur twice a day in most places. How much time is there between a morning high tide and the next high tide?
algol13

About 12 hours is the time between a morning high tide and the next high tide

Explanation:

The Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal bulges  

The “periodic rise and fall” of the surface water levels of the ocean is called tides. The gravitational action and interaction on the earth by the sun and the moon causes these tides. Different regions of the World experiences different patterns of tides like the diurnal, semi-diurnal etc.

When there is one high and one low tide occurring on a lunar day, then it is diurnal pattern. Semi-diurnal pattern occurs when there are two equal high and low tides on a single lunar day.

Since the Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal “bulges” on each lunar day, the coastal areas can experience two high and two low tides in every 24 hours plus 50 minutes.

Accordingly the time between two high tides would be 12 hours plus 25 minutes. Similarly, the time gap between a high to low tide would be 6 hours plus 12.5 minutes.
