A physics student skis down a hill, accelerating at a constant
ikadub [295]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

225 meters

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of an object in motion.

In our case we are given;

Acceleration, a = 2.0 m/s²

Time, t = 15 s

We are required to find the length of the slope;

Assuming the student started at rest, then the initial velocity, V₀ is Zero.

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the final velocity, Vf</h3>

Using the equation of linear motion;

Vf = V₀ + at

Therefore;

Vf = 0 + (2 × 15)

    = 30 m/s

Thus, the final velocity of the student is 30 m/s

<h3>Step 2: Calculate the length (displacement) of the slope </h3>

Using the other equation of linear motion;

S = 0.5 at + V₀t

We can calculate the length, S of the slope

That is;

S = (0.5 × 2 × 15² ) - (0 × 15)

= 225 m

Therefore, the length of the slope is 225 m

What is called gravitational potential energy?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Potential gravitational energy is the energy that the body has due to the Earth's gravitational attraction. In this way, the potential gravitational energy depends on the position of the body in relation to a reference level.

A race car makes one lap around a track of radius 50 m in 9.0 s. What is the average velocity? *
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Given that,

Radius of track, r = 50 m

time , t = 9 s

velocity, v = ?

Distance covered by car in one lap around a track is equal to the circumference of the track.

C = 2 π r = 2 * 3.14 * 50

C = 314.159 m

Distance covered by car, s = 314.159 m

Velocity = distance/ time

V = 314.159 / 9

V = 34.9 m/s

The average velocity of car is 34.9 m/s.

Define the relationship between force acceleration and mass
goblinko [34]
Force is mass times acceleration. This means an object with a larger mass needs a stronger force to be moved along at the same acceleration as an object with a small mass
