  • Initial velocity=20m/s
  • Final velocity=0m/s(As the car stops)
  • Acceleration=-8m/s^2
  • Distance=s=26m

We need to verify the thrid equation of kinematics here

\\ \tt\longmapsto v^2-u^2=2as

\\ \tt\longmapsto 20^2=2(-8)s

\\ \tt\longmapsto 400=-16s

\\ \tt\longmapsto s=|400/-16|

\\ \tt\longmapsto s=25m

The squirrel has a good luck ,Car gets stopped just 1m away from the squirrel .

Explanation:

<u>According</u><u> to</u><u> the</u><u> Question</u>

A squirrel runs out in front of a car moving at +20m/s ( initial speed u) . The driver slams on the brakes and begins decreasing at -8m/s² ( here the acceleration is acting in opposite directions of motion a )

When Squirrel was 26 metres ( Distance from the car initially )

Using Kinematic Equation

  • v² = u² + 2as

On substituting the value we obtain

➥ 0² = 20² + 2 × -8 × s

➥ 0 = 400 - 16 × s

➥ -400 = -16 × s

➥ 400/16 = s

➥ 25 = s

So, the squirrel is 25 metres from the car .

Consider a car that travels between points A and B. The car's average speed can be greater than the magnitude of its average vel
ryzh [129]

Answer: A.True

Explanation: simply put the magnitude of the speed is a function of Distance while the magnitude of velocity is a function of Displacement. Displacement is the average Distance moved in different directions which will be smaller in magnitude compared to the Total Distance used the calculating the magnitude of speed.

When an object moves in a circular path, it accelerates toward the center of the circle as a result of ______.
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration

Explanation:

An object moving around a xirxular path maintains its route as a result of centripetal force. However, its acceleration is caused by centripetal acceleration. Despite centripetal acceleration not being among the choices, it is the right answer.

Centripetal acceleration helps an object that navigates around a circular path to accelerate while centripetal force enables the movement of an object around a circular path to move inwards. Momentum, given as one of the choices is product of mass and velocity while friction is the force opposing movement of an object around a surface.

At what speed do a bicycle and its rider, with a combined mass of 100 kg , have the same momentum as a 1600 kg car traveling at
noname [10]
Given:\\m_b=100kg\\m_c=1600kg\\v_c=5.2 \frac{m}{s} \\p_b=p_c\\\\Find:\\v_b=?\\\\Solution:\\\\p_b=p_c\\\\p=mv\\\\m_bv_b=m_cv_c\Rightarrow v_b= \frac{m_cv_c}{m_b} \\\\v_b= \frac{1600kg\cdot5.2 \frac{m}{s}  }{100kg} =83.2 \frac{m}{s}

A cyclist going downhill is accelerating at 1.2 m/s2. If the final velocity of the cyclist is 16 m/s after 10 seconds, what is t
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

Explanation:

What is acceleration?

It is the change in velocity with respect to time, or the rate of change of velocity.

We can write this as:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}

Where

a is the acceleration

v is velocity

t is time

\Delta  is "change in"

For this problem , we are given

a = 1.2

t = 10

Putting into formula, we get:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}\\1.2=\frac{\Delta v}{10}\\\Delta v = 1.2*10\\\Delta v = 12

So, the change in velocity is 12 m/s

The change in velocity can also be written as:

\Delta v = Final  \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity

It is given Final Velocity = 16, so we put it into formula and find Initial Velocity. Shown Below:

\Delta v = Final  \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity\\12=16-Initial \ Velocity\\Initial \ Velocity = 16 - 12 = 4

hence,

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s
