A great, helpful, useful definition of acceleration is
<em>A = (change in speed) / (time for the change)</em> . <== you should memorize this
This simple tool will directly solve all 3 problems.
The REASON for assigning these problems for homework is NOT to find the answers. It's to help YOU find out whether you know this definition, to let you go back and review it if you don't, and to give you a chance to practice using it if you do. Noticed that if you get the answers from somebody else, you lose all of these benefits.
The only wrinkle anywhere here is in #3, because when you use this definition, the unit of time has to be the same in both the numerator and the denominator.
So for #3, you have to EITHER change the km/hr to km/sec, OR change the 4sec to a fraction of an hour, before you plug anything into the definition.
Answer:
180 N
Explanation:
Use Newton's second law, F = ma.
m = 4.5 kg; a = 40 m/s/s
F = (4.5)(40) = 180 N
The gravitational potential energy
gpe = mgh

Answer:
Check the attached image
Explanation:
To solve the problem for time you will have to use the formula for time, t = d/s which means time equals distance divided by speed.
