Answer:

Fossils tell us when organisms lived, as well as provide evidence for the progression and evolution of life on earth over millions of years.

Explanation:

As the world changes, plants and animals change with it. Aside from a few living fossils, the species we see today are very different from species that lived in the past. Thus, the fossil record can be used to show that organisms changed to meet new conditions. ... This is the result of evolution of species over time.

an object is moving with initial velocity of 5 m/s. After 10 seconds final velocity is 10 m/s. Calculate its acceleration.

Brut [27]

Answer:

0.5m/s2

Explanation:

acceleration= change in velocity/time taken

= v - u/ t

= 10-5/10

=5/10

= 0.5m/s2

The time, t, required to drive a fixed distance varies inversely as the speed, r. It takes 3 hr at a speed of 14 km/h to driv

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

time taken with speed 23 km/h will be 1.8 hours or 1 hour 48 minutes

Explanation:

Given:

Time is inversely proportional to the speed

mathematically,

t ∝ (1/r)

let the proportionality constant be 'k'

thus,

t = k/r

therefore, for case 1

time = 3 hr

speed = 14 km/hr

3 = k/14

also,

for case 2

let the time be = t

r = 23 km/h

thus,

we have

t = k/23

on dividing equation 2 by 1

we get

$\frac{t}{3}=\frac{k/23}{k/14}$

$t=\frac{14\times3}{23}$

t = 1.8 hr = or 1 hour 48 minutes ( 0.8 hours × 60 minutes/hour = 48 minutes)

An object accelerates from rest and travels 53 m west in 5.2 s. Determine the acceleration

zmey [24]

Answer:

20.4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Distance = 53m

Time = 5.2s

Unknown:

Acceleration = ?

Solution:

This is a linear motion and we use the right motion equation;

S = ut + $\frac{1}{2}$ at²

S is the distance

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

Insert the parameters and solve;

53 = (0x 5.2) + $\frac{1}{2}$ x a x 5.2

53 = 2.6a

a = $\frac{53}{2.6}$ = 20.4m/s²
