Avelocity vs. time graph for an object is shown. which best describes the acceleration of the object? constant and positive constant and negative changing and positive changing and negative

The correct answer is constant and positive

The velocity is changing with respect to time at constant rate and we know that the change in velocity is known as acceleration so a constant change in velocity with respect to time will give us a constant acceleration. Similarly the velocity is gradually increasing that is why we will take the acceleration as positive .

constant and positive

Explanation:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. It can be measured in meter per second square.

It can be measured from the slope of velocity - time graph.

In the given velocity vs. time graph, the slope is a straight line in the first quadrant. This means the acceleration is uniform (constant) and positive.

Acceleration from the given graph is:

a = change in velocity /time interval = (5-0)m/s/(5-0)s = 1 m/s².

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
