You are driving in such a way that the car is accelerating at a constant rate in the positive direction. When you pass the first sign, you are traveling at 4 m/s. When you pass the second sign 50 m down the road, you note that the seconds indicator of your clock reads 45 seconds. You also note that your velocity is now 9 m/s. Required:
a. What is your acceleration?
b. What was the clock’s seconds indicator reading when you passed the first sign?

The diagram shows four locations in the electric field of a positive point charge m. at which location is the electric potential the greatest.

An engine undergoes a cycle as shown in the diagram. during a complete cycle the work done by the gas is 28.5×103 j and the energy transferred thermally out is 99.4×103 j. there are 1.5×1024 gas molecules and they have three active degrees of freedom. 6. (6 pts) during which process(es) is energy transferred thermally into the gas? a. 1→2 b. 2→3 c. 4→1 d. 1→2 and 4→1 e. none of the above

Aparticle's position is given by x = 3.00 - 9.00t + 3t2, in which x is in meters and t is in seconds. (a) what is its velocity at t = 1 s? (b) is it moving in the positive or negative direction of x just then? (c) what is its speed just then? (d) is the speed increasing or decreasing just then? (try answering the next two questions without further calculation.) (e) is there ever an instant when the velocity is zero? if so, give the time t; if not, answer "0". (f) is there a time after t = 3 s when the particle is moving in the negative direction of x? if so, give the time t; if not, answer "0".
