A car of mass 1200 kg is being towed horizontally on the end of a horizontal cable the car accelerates uniformly from rest to a speed of 15ms-1 in a distance of 75m show that the accleration of t?
Motion formulas
vfinal = vinitial + acceleration * time
vf = vi + a * t
vf - vi = a * t
t = (vf - vi ) ÷ a
average velocity = (vi + vf) ÷ 2
distance = average velocity * time
d = (vi + vf) ÷ 2t
t = 2d ÷ (vi + vf)
Set the 2 equations equal to t, equal to each other.
(vf - vi ) ÷ a = 2d ÷ (vi + vf)
This would look better as a proportion, but wiki doesn't copy symbols!
Cross multiply and divide
(vf - vi ) * (vi + vf) = 2*a*d
vf2 - vi2 = 2*a*d
vf2 = vi2 +2*a*d
Your question:
Mass = 1200Kg
Distance = 75m
vi = 0 m/s
change in velocity = (vf - vi) = 15m/s - 0 /s = 15m/s
(vf - vi) = 15m/s
vf2 = vi2 + 2*a*d
vi2 = 0
vf2 = 2*a*d
152 = 2*a*75 a = 1.5 m/s
vf = vi + at
t = (vf - vi)÷ a
t = 15m/s ÷ 1.5 m/s2 = 10 seconds
Force = mass * acceleration F = 1200kg * 1.5 m/s2 =
F = 1800 Newtons

When does a mass accelerate uniformly?
A mass accelerates uniformly when a constant force is applied to it, resulting in a constant rate of change in velocity over time. This occurs in scenarios where there is no opposing force or acceleration due to factors such as friction, air resistance, or gravity.

A vehicle accelerates uniformly from a speed of 4.0ms to a speed of 12ms in 6.0s. What is the vehicles acceleration?
4/3 ms-2.
An object uniformly accelerates over a distance of 100 m in 20 seconds. What is the acceleration?
an object uniformly accerlerates over a distance of 100 m in 20 seconds. calculate the acceleration.
A race car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to a speed of 40 ms in 8.0 seconds how far will the car travel during the 8 seconds?
160 m
What answer of A car accelerates uniformly from rest after five seconds its final velocity is twenty meter per second its acceleration during third second will be?
So it's acceleration is 4m/s2. So at any point because it says uniformly, it will be accelerating at 4m/s2 each second
What is uniformly accelerating linear motion?
Motion implies momentum, which implies velocity. Linear implies a straight line. Accelerating implies changing velocity. And uniform implies constancy. So, when an object moves in a straight line and accelerates at a constant rate, you have uniformly accelerating linear motion.
Is projectile motion is an example of uniformly accelerated motion in two dimensions?
Yes, projectile motion is an example of uniformly accelerated motion in two dimensions. This is because the acceleration due to gravity acts vertically downwards throughout the motion, causing the object to accelerate at a constant rate in the vertical direction while moving horizontally at a constant velocity.
Difference between isotropic antenna and omnidirectional antenna?
The isotropicantenna by definition has a radiation pattern that is a perfect sphere. The omni driectional antenna is characterized by a radiation pattern resembling a doughnut.
A driver of a car traveling at 52 km per hour applies brakes and accelerates uniformly in opposite directionthe car stops in 5 seconds. how far will it travel before stopping?
0.07km
The primary document that you use in Excel to store and work with data and which is formatted as a pattern of uniformly space horizontal and vertical lines?
It would be worksheet, which would be contained in a workbook.
A race car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at a rate of 4.90 meters per second what is the cars speed after it has traveled 200 meters?
Acceleration cannot be measured in metres per second. There is, therefore a fundamental problem with the question.
