Hello!

A car traveling at 10 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 20 seconds. What is it's acceleration ?

We have the following data:

Vi (initial velocity) = 10 m/s (starts)

Vf (final velocity) = 0 m/s (stop)

t (time) = 20 s

a (acceleration) = ? (in m/s²)

<u><em>We apply the data to the formula of the hourly function of the velocity, let us see:</em></u>

V_f = V_i + a*t

0 = 10 + a*20

- 10 = 20\:a

20\:a = - 10

a = \dfrac{-1\diagup\!\!\!\!0}{2\diagup\!\!\!\!0}

\boxed{\boxed{a = - 0.5\:m/s^2}}\Longrightarrow(the\:car\:slows\:down)\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\green{\checkmark}

<u><em>Answer:  </em></u>

<u><em>The acceleration is -0.5 m/s² (decelerate)  </em></u>

Answer:

-0.5 m/s

Explanation:

given:

u (initial velocity) = 10 m/s

v (Final velocity) = 0 m/s (because it is given that it comes to a complete stop)

t (time taken) = 20 s

therefore,

acceleration = v - u / t

a = 0 - 10 / 20  

a = -10 / 20

a =  -1/2

a = -0.5

There is a acceleration of -0.5 m/s

In our Solar System, the inner planets are rocky because Choose one: A. warm temperatures in the inner disk caused the inner pla
xeze [42]

The inner planets are rocky because The warm temperatures in the inner disk caused the inner planetesimals to be formed of mostly rocky material.

What are rocky planets?

  • Rocky planets are the planet in which constituents are mostly silicate rocks or metal. They are also regarded as a planet with a solid surface.
  • The formation of rocky planets is said to have occurred billions of years ago and its process of formation is termed accretion. Through accretion are its constituents formed as the more it goes bigger, the higher the rising temperature and pressure in its core and the elements which have to undergo accreted heat up, melt, and spread. Through this process, heavier elements go deeper into the core of the planet and lighter elements float toward the surface.
  • In the formation of rocky planets, the inner portions of the disk are said to be warm from the protostar thereby resulting in the production of the heavy elements that stay there.
  • Examples of rocky planets are Earth or Mars

Hence, from the above, we can say that,

The warm temperatures in the inner disk caused the inner planetesimals to be formed of mostly rocky material.

Here,

Option A is correct.

4.5 billion km, the average separation between the sun and Neptune (report answer in hours). How long does it take light to trav
Liula [17]

Answer:

t = 4.17 hours

Explanation:

given,

The distance between Sun and Neptune, d = 4.5 billion Km

                                                                         = 4.5 x 10⁹ Km

                                                                          = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m

The velocity of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The velocity is always equal to displacement by the time.

                                           <em>V = d / t    m/s</em>

∴                                           t = d / V

                                               = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m / 3 x 10⁸ m/s

                                               = 15,000 s

                                               = 4.17 h

Hence, the time taken by the light rays to reach the Neptune is, t = 4.17 h
