The initial velocity of a car that accelerates at a constant rate of 3m/s² for 5 seconds is 12m/s.

CALCULATE INITIAL VELOCITY:

The initial velocity of the car can be calculated by using one of the equation of motion as follows:

V = u + at

Where;

  • V = final velocity (m/s)
  • u = initial velocity (m/s)
  • a = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)
  • t = time (s)

According to this question, a car accelerates at a constant rate of 3 m/s² for 5 seconds. If it reaches a velocity of 27 m/s, its initial velocity is calculated as follows:

u = v - at

u = 27 - 3(5)

u = 27 - 15

u = 12m/s.

Therefore, the initial velocity of a car that accelerates at a constant rate of 3m/s² for 5 seconds is 12m/s.

What is the enthalpy change, ΔH, for this reaction? Show your work.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

B) What is the enthalpy change, ∆H, for this reaction? Show your work to receive full credit (5 points) The enthalpy change is 150. To find it we must subtract energy of products (200) & the energy of reactants (50) so 200 – 50 equals 150.

A 5.00 kilogram mass is traveling at 100. meters per second. Determine the speed of the mass after an impulse with a magnitude o
faltersainse [42]

m = mass = 5 kg

v_{i} = initial velocity = 100 m/s

v_{f} = final velocity = ?

I = impulse = 30 Ns

Using the impulse-change in momentum equation

I = m(v_{f} - v_{i})

30 = 5 (v_{f} - 100)

v_{f} = 106 m/s

A stone is dropped from the

  • Height=h=500m
  • Acceleration=g=10m/s^2
  • Initial velocity=u=0
  • Speed of sound=c=340m/s
  • TIME TAKEN BY STONE TO HIT WATER=t
  • Time taken by sound to hear back=T

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=0t+\dfrac{1}{2}10t^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto 500=5t^2

\\ \sf\longmapsto t^2=100

\\ \sf\longmapsto t=10s

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=cT

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{h}{c}

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{500}{340}

\\ \sf\longmapsto T=1.47\approx 1.5s

Total time:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto T_{net}=t+T=10+1.5=11.5s
