a cheetah goes from standing still to running at 60 mph in 3 seconds. what is the cheetahs acceleration in standard international units?

Answers

Answer 1
Hang on...

Initial velocity (u) : 0mph = 0m/s (rest)
Final velocity (v) : 60mph = 26.822 m/s
Time taken (t) : 3 seconds

Now,

Acceleration= (v-u)/t

= 26.822 - 0 / 3
= 8.94

Therefore the acceleration is 8.94 m/s^2

Answer 2

The acceleration of the cheetahs in the standard international units would be 8.938 meters/second².

What is acceleration?

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object.

As given in the problem a cheetah goes from standing still to running at 60  miles per hour in 3 seconds

1 mile = 1609 meters

60 miles = 60×1609 meters

               =96540 meters

1 hour = 3600 seconds

       

the initial velocity of the cheetah = 0

the final velocity of the = 96540/3600

                                      =26.8166 meters/seconds

acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) /time period

                    =(26.8166 -0)/3

                    =8.938 meters/second²

Thus, the cheetah's acceleration would be 8.938 meters/second².

Rebecca is pushing her motorcycle down the road to a repair shop with a certain net force. If the net force is doubled, by how much does the acceleration change?

Answers

Answer:

If the net force is doubled the acceleration change in the same proportion, that is to say, it is doubled too.

Explanation:

We have that:

[tex] F = ma [/tex]

From the equation above we see that the acceleration is directly proportional to the force, so hence if the force is doubled:

[tex] F_{1} = ma_{1} [/tex]

[tex] 2F_{1} = ma_{2}  \rightarrow a_{2} = 2\frac{F_{1}}{m} = 2a_{1} [/tex]  

Therefore, If the net force is doubled the acceleration change in the same proportion, that is to say, it is doubled too.

LeBron James runs 260 meters East, then realized he dropped is basketball. He turns around and walks 54 meters West until he finds his ball. It takes him 45 seconds for the full trip. How far away is he from where he started?

Answers

Answer:

206 meters East

Explanation:

Assuming that the starting point of Lebron James 0. He ran from point 0 to 260 meters in the Eastern direction. His displacement is now 260 meters to the East.

He then turned from the Eastern to the Western direction - opposing directions - and then walked 54 meters to find his ball. His displacement from the starting point will now be:

260 - 54 = 206 meters in the Eastern direction.

tK = temperature in Kelvin

t°C = temperature in celcius

A.  50°C;

        tK = 50 + 273  = 323K

B. 10°C;

      tK = 10 + 273 = 283K

A mischievous cat sees a flowerpot sitting at rest on a windowsill. If it takes 1.2 s for the flowerpot to fall from the window, how high up was the window?

Answers

Given that,

Initial speed of a cat is 0 because it was at rest.

If it takes 1.2 s for the flowerpot to fall from the window, we need to find the height reached by the cat.

Using second equation of motion to find it as follows :

[tex]d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]

Put u = 0 and a = g

[tex]d=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\d=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (1.2)^2\\\\d=7.05\ m[/tex]

So, it will move to a height of 7.05 m.

If objects in free fall near the surface of Earth accelerate downward at 9.81 meters per second, why does a feather not accelerate at this rate when dropped near the surface of Earth? A. The feather's mass is too small. B. The air spaces in the feather interfere with gravity. C. Air friction acts on the feather. D. The shape of the feather propels it through the air.​

Answers

Answer:

the answer of this question is B

The reason why the feather does not accelerate at this rate when dropped near the surface of Earth is because of Air friction acts on the feather.

The free-falling of an object is said to have an acceleration of 9.8 m/s/s, downward (on Earth).

The Gravity or its acceleration due to it is regarded as 9.81 meters per second square, on the earth surface, because of the size of Earth and the distance we are on its surface from its center.

In space, gravity are said to be constant.

Conclusively, due to air resistance, acceleration throughout a fall gets less than gravity because it affects the movement of the falling object by slowing it down.

An object has an acceleration of 18.2 m/s/s. If the net force experienced by the object is
decreased by a factor of 3.9, then the new acceleration would be ___m/s/s. Enter a numerical
answer.

Answers

Answer:

46.2m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Acceleration  = 18.2m/s²

Original force  = F

Decrease factor = 3.9

Unknown:

New acceleration = ?

Solution:

Let the original force  = F

            new force  = [tex]\frac{F}{0.39}[/tex]

        Original acceleration = 18.2m/s²

         new acceleration  = ?

According to newton's second law of motion;

       Force = mass x acceleration

  So,

        mass = [tex]\frac{Force}{Acceleration}[/tex]

   So; initial mass = final mass

                [tex]\frac{F }{18.2}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{\frac{F}{0.39} }{acceleration}[/tex]

             [tex]\frac{F}{0.39}[/tex] x 18.2 = F x acceleration

            Acceleration = 46.2m/s²

Stacey sees a person pushing a lawn mower across level ground. She is

walking at constant speed and pushing the mower with constant force.

Could the lawn mower move faster than the person is walking?

Answers

Answer:

No, the lawn mover will maintain the same speed as the person pushing it

Explanation:

To understand this, we need to reflect back to the law of motion, the first law to be précised.

It states that "A body will continue to be at rest or uniform/constant motion unless acted upon by an external force which is greater than the current force"  

So we can see that since the person continues to apply the same force at the same speed, the effect on the mover will be the same.

A person weighing 645 N climbs up a ladder to a height of 4.55 m. What is the
increase in gravitational potential energy?

Answers

Answer:

P.E = 2934.75

Explanation:

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]

Where, P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Given the following data;

Weight =645

Height = 4.55

[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]

But we know that weight = mg = 645N

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] P.E = 645 * 4.55 [/tex]

[tex] P.E = 2934.75 J[/tex]

Potential energy, P.E = 2934.75 Joules.

On a aircraft carrier, a fighter jet goes from rest to a velocity of 250 mph (miles per hour) when it takes off. It does this in 3 seconds. What is it acceleration ?

Answers

Answer:

37.25m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity of an object with respect to time.

Acceleration = velocity/time

Given

Velocity = 250mi/hr

Convert to m/s

1mile = 1609.344m

1hr = 3600s

250mi/hr = 250mi * 1609.344/1 * 3600

250mi/hr = 402366/3600

250mi/hr = 111.76m/s

Time = 3 seconds

Get the acceleration:

Acceleration = 111.76/3

Acceleration = 37.25m/s

Hence the acceleration is 37.25m/s

J.J. Thomson discovered the electron in 1897. In 1904, he proposed a model of an atom, describing that there was an equal distribution of negative and positive charges throughout the atom.

Based on Thomson's model, it was predicted that the particles would fly through the foil with a small amount deflected back. Analyzing the results, Rutherford discovered that more of the particles bounced back than expected.
