A particle travels along a straight line with a velocity 2 v t m s   (12 3 ) / , where t is in seconds. When t s  1 , the particle is located 10m to the left of the origin. Determine the acceleration when t s  4 , the displacement from t s  0 to t s 10 , and the distance the particle travels during this time period. 2 a m s  24 / , s m  880 , d m

a)  a = -24 m / s² , b)   Δx = 1180 m

Explanation:

a) This is a one-dimensional kinematics exercise, let's use the equation

            x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²

in this case give us the initial velocity v₀ = 2 m / s and the location (x = -10m) for t = 1 s, find us the acceleration

             a = (x-x₀- v₀ t) 2 / t²

let's calculate

             a = (-10 -0 - 2 1) 2/1²

             a = -24 m / s²

The sign of acceleration indicates that it is heading to the left; this acceleration is constant throughout the movement

therefore the acceleration for t = 4 s is also a = 24 m / s²

b) The displacement between t = 0 and t = 10 s

for t = 0     it is at x = xo

for t = 10    x = xo + 2 10 - ½ 24 10²

                  x = xo +20 -1200

                  x (10) = xo - 1180

in displacement is

     Δx = x (0) - x (10)

      Δx = 1180 m

it doesn't. it was imagined up in the middle ages.

the answer is false. this is because for ice to melt, it requires latent heat of melting. latent heat means heat energy required to change phase without any increase in temperatures. therefore, the ice will take energy from the environment to melt hence atmospheric temperatures will reduce.
