ioda2 years ago
4 0

answer:

2.5 m/s²

Explanation:

120 km/h = 120 ÷ 3.6 = 100/3 ≈ 33 m/s

a = (v2 - v1)/∆t = (33m/s - 0)/ 13s = 33/13 m/s²≈ 2.5 m/s²

The following quantities describe location or its change:position, distance, and a displacement. Which are vectors?
-Dominant- [34]

As per the question there are three physical quantities named as position,distance and displacement.

Before coming into a conclusion first we have to understand a vector and a scalar.

A scalar quantity is a quantity which has only magnitude for it's complete specifications.

A vector is a quantity which has magnitude as well as direction and at the same time it is in accordance with the paraellogram law of vector addition.

Out of the three options displacement and position are vector quantities.It is because it is the minimum distance between two points .It has magnitude as well as direction.

Distance can not be considered as a vector quantity as it has only magnitude.There is no specific directions of distance travelled.

Position vector is a vector which provides location of an object in a plane or space.It is nothing else except the point which has x,y,z coordinates with origin is taken as the reference point.

Hence position and displacement are vectors

The temperature of 2.0 g of helium is increased at constant volume by ΔT. What mass of oxygen can have its temperature increased
gavmur [86]

Answer:

m = 9.6 g

Explanation:

Thermal energy given to helium gas at constant volume is given as

Q = nC_v \Delta T

so here we have

C_v = \frac{3}{2}R

n = moles

n = \frac{2}{4} = 0.5

so we have

Q = \frac{3}{2}R(0.5)\Delta T

now we know that

for oxygen gas we have

C_v = \frac{5}{2}R

for same amount of heat we have

Q = nC_v \Delta T'

\frac{3}{2}R(0.5)\Delta T = \frac{m}{32} (\frac{5R}{2}) \Delta T

m = \frac{0.75 \times 32}{2.5}

m = 9.6 g

A ball is thrown straight up at 20 m. What is the balls velocity as it hits the ground?
deff fn [24]

Answer:

<em>The velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

Explanation:

Velocity: Velocity of a body can be defined as the rate of change of displacement of the body. The S.I unit of velocity is m/s. velocity is expressed in one of newtons equation of motion, and is given below.

v² = u² + 2gs.......................... Equation 1

Where v = the final velocity of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, s = the height of the ball

<em>Given: s = 20 m, u = 0 m/s</em>

<em>Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>v² = 0 + 2×9.8×20</em>

<em>v² = 392</em>

<em>v = √392</em>

<em>v = 19.799 m/s.</em>

<em>Therefore the velocity of the ball as it hit the ground = 19.799 m/s</em>

The force of gravity on a 1 kg object on the Earth's surface is approximately 9.8 N. For the same object in low-earth orbit arou
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

g = 8.61 m/s²

Explanation:

distance of the International Space Station form earth is 200 Km

mass of the object = 1 Kg

acceleration due to gravity on earth = 9.8 m/s²

mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg

acceleration due to gravity = ?

r = 6400 + 200 = 6800 Km = 6.8 x 10⁶ n

using formula

 g = \dfrac{GM}{r^2}

 g = \dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.972\times 10^24}{(6.8\times 10^6)^2}

        g = 8.61 m/s²

A ball is thrown at an angle of 38° to the horizontal. What happens to the
finlep [7]

Answer:

Vy = V0 sin 38       where Vy is the initial vertical velocity

The ball will accelerate downwards (until it lands)

Note the signs involved   if Vy is positive then g must be negative

The acceleration is constant until the ball lands

t (upwards) = (0 - Vy) / -g      = Vy / g      final velocity = 0

t(downwards = (-Vy - 0) / -g = Vy / g      final velocity = -Vy

time upwards = time downwards     (conservation laws)
