Question: A car has an acceleration of 6 m/s². And it is started from the rest. How long will it take to reach a velocity of 48 m/s?

Answer:

Given data:

Acceleration of the car (a) = 6 m/s², 

Initial velocity of the car (u) = 0 m/s (because intially car is at rest) and 

Final velocity of the car (v) = 48 m/s.

According to the equation of the constant acceleration motion,





 


Thus, the time required to obtain 48 m/s velocity is 8 seconds.

Differences between Ideal and Real Fluids

A container, in the shape of a rectangle prism with dimensions l,w and h, is filled with an ideal gas and sealed. The average force exerted by the gas molecules on the bottom of the container is F. There are n moles of gas in the container and the temperature of the gas is T. What is h, the height of the container?

A car accelerates uniformly at a rate of 10m/s² from an initial velocity of 36km/hr for 30s. What is the covered distance during this period?
