If your automobile runs out of fuel while driving, the engine

stops. You don't come to an abrupt stop due to the concept of

inertia.

<h3>What is Inertia?</h3>

This is referred to a resistance in an object due to its change in

velocity. The object doesn't come to a sudden state of rest.

When the fuel runs out and the engine stops, there is no abrupt

stop as a result of the inertia(resistance) to the change in

velocity.

A slingshot fires a pebble from the top of a building at a speed of 17.5 m/s. The building is 31.5 m tall. Ignoring air resistan

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The speed with which the pebble strikes the ground is 30.4m/s

Explanation:

Initial velocity (u) = 17.5m/s, height (h) = 31.5m, acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8m/s^2

V^2 = u^2 + 2gh = 17.5^2 + 2×9.8×31.5 = 306.25 + 617.4 = 923.65

V^2 = 923.65

V = √923.65 = 30.4m/s

A remote Internet Web page may sometimes reach your computer by going through a geostationary satellite orbiting approximately 3

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

0.24 seconds

Explanation:

The signal will reach the computer at light speed = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

Distance between the satellite and the computer = $3.6\times 10^7m$

Since, the bodies have no acceleration relative to each other we use the following formula

Time = Distance / Time

$\text{Time}=\frac{3.6\times 10^7}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \text{Time}=0.12\ s$

One way delay would be at least 0.12 seconds.

But when you click on a link to open a website this signal has to be first sent to the satellite then the satellite would have to send the required signal back to the computer.

Hence, the minimum time delay would be 0.12+0.12 = 0.24 seconds

A 150 kg car hits a wall with 45 N of force, what was its acceleration?

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

a = 0.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Given: 45 N, 150 kg

To find: a

Formula: $a = \frac{F}{m}$

Solution: To find a, divide the force by the weight

A = F ÷ m

= 45 ÷ 150

= 0.3 m/s²

Newtons are derived units, equal to 1 kg-m/s². In other words, a single Newton is equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram one meter per second squared.
