A ride-sharing car moving along a straight section of road starts from rest, accelerating at 2.00 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 31.0 m/s. Then the vehicle moves for 35.0 s at constant speed until the brakes are applied, stopping the vehicle in a uniform manner in an additional 5.00 s.(a) How long is the ride-sharing car in motion (in s)? (b) What is the average velocity of the ride-sharing car for the motion described?

A) total time = 55.5 seconds

B) average velocity = 25.27 m/s

Explanation:

It starts from rest, so initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

We are given;

acceleration; a = 2 m/s²

Final velocity; v = 31 m/s

From Newton's first law of motion,

v = u + at

So, 31 = 0 + 2t

t = 31/2

t = 15.5 sec

We are told that, after this time of 15.5 sec, the car travels 35 sec at a constant speed and after that it takes 5 sec additional time to stop. Thus;

(a) Total time in which car is in motion = 15.5 + 35 +5 = 55.5 seconds

b)Total distance traveled during first 15.5 sec would be gotten from Newton's second equation of motion which is;

S = ut + ½at²

S1 = 0 + ½(2 * 15.5²)

S1 = 240.25 m

Distance traveled in 35 sec with with velocity of 31 m/sec is;

S2 = velocity x time

S2 = 35 × 31 = 1085 m

Now, for the final stage, final velocity (v) will now be 0 since the car comes to rest while initial velocity(u) will be 31 m/s.

From the first equation of motion,

a = (v - u)/t

a = (0 - 31)/5

a = -6.2 m/s²

So, distance travelled is;

S3 = ut + ½at²

S3 = (31 × 5) + ½(-6.2 × 5²)

S3 = 155 - 77.5

S3 = 77.5 m

So overall total distance = S1 + S2 + S3

Overall total distance = 240.25 + 1085 + 77.5 = 1402.75 m

Average velocity = total distance/total time

Average velocity = 1402.75/55.5 = 25.27 m/s

vestigial organs (like your appendix) are organs that no longer serve a purpose.

cell differentiation  is how generic embryonic  cells  become specialized  cells. this occurs  through a process called gene expression. gene expression is the specific combination of genes that are turned on or off (expressed or repressed), and this is what dictates how a  cell  functions.
