The sprinter’s average acceleration is 1.98 m/s²

The given parameters;

  • initial velocity of the sprinter, u = 18 km/h
  • final velocity of the sprinter, v = 27 km/h
  • time of motion of the sprinter, t = 3.5 x 10⁻⁴ h

Convert the velocity of the sprinter to m/s;

initial \ velocity, u = 18 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ h}{3600 \ s} = 5 \ m/s\\\\final \ velocity, v =27 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km} \times \frac{1 \ h}{3600 \ s} = 7.5 \ m/s\\\\

The time of motion is seconds;

t = 3.5 \times 10^{-4} \ h \times \frac{3600 \ s}{1 \ h} = 1.26 \ s

The sprinter’s average acceleration is calculated as follows;

a = \frac{v- u}{t} \\\\a = \frac{7.5 \ m/s \ - \ 5 \ m/s}{1.26 \ s} \\\\a = 1.98 \ m/s^2

Thus, the sprinter’s average acceleration is 1.98 m/s²

A ship, carrying freshwater to a desert island in the caribbean, has a horizontal cross-sectional area of 2800 m2 at the waterli
Alex17521 [72]
<span>Due that we already know the horizontal cross-sectional area of the ship, which is 2800 m2 and we are going to understand that value keeps constant for the whole 9.5 of height of the ship from the waterline till the new waterline after unloading, then we just need to calculate the volume as follows: V = A * H , where V is volume, A is area and H is height V= 2,800 * 9.5 = 26,600 m3 So this volum of 26,600 cubic meters is the volum of freshwater delivered in the island.</span>

How much does 1 liter of water weigh
Zinaida [17]

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

On Earth ...

Weight = (1 kg) x (9.8 m/s^2)

Weight = 9.8 Newtons

How can you tell if an igneous rock has an intrusive or extrusive origin?
wariber [46]

Intrusive igneous rocks cool down from magma slowly because they form underneath the surface, that will make them have large crystals.

Extrusive igneous rocks cool down from lava rapidly because they form at the surface, so that will make them have small crystals.
