Answer:
<em>Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration</em>
Explanation:
<u>Accelerated Motion</u>
Both the velocity and acceleration are vectors because they have magnitude and direction. When the motion is restricted to one dimension, i.e. left-right or up-down, the direction is marked with the sign according to some preset reference.
The locomotive is moving at a certain speed with a (so far) unknown sign but the acceleration has a negative sign. Since the locomotive comes to a complete stop it means the velocity and the acceleration are of opposite signs.
Thus the velocity is positive.
Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration
The answer is B
second law
Answer:
v = 2.94 m/s
Explanation:
When the spring is compressed, its potential energy is equal to (1/2)kx^2, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance compressed. At this point there is no kinetic energy due to there being no movement, meaning the net energy in the system is (1/2)kx^2.
Once the spring leaves the system, it will be moving at a constant velocity v, if friction is ignored. At this time, its kinetic energy will be (1/2)mv^2. It won't have any spring potential energy, making the net energy (1/2)mv^2.
Because of the conservation of energy, these two values can be set equal to each other, since energy will not be gained or lost while the spring is decompressing. That means
(1/2)kx^2 = (1/2)mv^2
kx^2 = mv^2
v^2 = (kx^2)/m
v = sqrt((kx^2)/m)
v = x * sqrt(k/m)
v = 0.122 * sqrt(125/0.215) <--- units converted to m and kg
v = 2.94 m/s
Answer: A and B
Explanation:
A
The wavelength of both transverse and longitudinal waves is measured parallel to the direction of the travel of the wave.
Because wavelength is the distance between the two successful crest or trough.
B)
Amplitude of longitudinal waves is measured at right angles to the direction of the travel of the wave and represents the maximum distance the molecule has moved from its normal position.
Because amplitude is the measure of maximum displacement from the original position
Answer:
D
Explanation:
1.) The reaction is at dynamic equilibrium.
A: Nitrogen and hydrogen combine at the same rate that ammonia breaks down.
2.) Which statement about the reaction is necessarily correct?
A: Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.
3.) Both calcium carbonate and sodium carbonate are being produced.
A: The reaction is reversible.
4.) What is the fastest motion that can be measured in any frame of reference?
A: 300,000 km/s
5.) Two people are on a train that is moving at 10 m/s north. They are walking 1 m/s south relative to the train. Relative to the ground, their motion is 9 m/s north.
Why are we able to use these motions to describe the motion relative to the ground?
A: The people are moving much slower than the speed of light so the ground acts as a frame of reference.
