A car starts from rest and goes down a slope with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s^2. After 5 seconds, the car reaches the bottom of the hill. What is its speed at the bottom Of the hill, in meters per second?

Question: A car starts from rest and goes down a slope with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s^2. After 5 seconds, the car reaches the bottom of the hill. What is its speed at the bottom Of the hill, in meters per second?

Answer:
Given data:
Car starts from rest so the initial velocity of tge car (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration of the car (a) = 5 m/s²
Time required to reach at bottom (t) = 5 seconds

According to the uniform acceleration motion,
v = u + at
Here, v is the velocity of the car at the bottom

v = 0 + 5(5)
v= 25 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the car at the bottom is 25 m/s.

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?
