As they are Alkali metals (group 1), they are extremely reactive in both air and water so must be stored in kerosine to stop them from reacting with the air or water.

Find the distance traveled by a particle with position (x, y) as t varies in the given time interval. x = 2 sin2(t), y = 2 cos2(
Tanya [424]

The distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval is 0.28 m.

<h3>Position of the particle at time, t = 0</h3>

The position of the particle at the given time is calculated as follows;

x = 2 sin2(t)

y = 2 cos2(t)

x(0) = 2 sin2(0) = 0

y(0) = 2 cos2(0) = 2(1) = 2

<h3>Position of the particle at time, t = 4</h3>

x = 2 sin2(t)

y = 2 cos2(t)

x(4) = 2 sin2(4) = 0.28

y(4) = 2 cos2(4) = 2(1) = 1.98

<h3>Distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval</h3>

d = √[(x₄ - x₀)² + (y₄ - y₀)²]

d =  √[(0.28 - 0)² + (1.98 - 2)²]

d = 0.28 m

Thus, the distance traveled by the particle at the given time interval is 0.28 m.

A 3.0kg weight W is initially at rest on incline AB, which is raised 40° above the horizontal. The effective coefficient is
lakkis [162]

(a) The acceleration of the system is determined as 1.58 m/s².

(b) The relative weight of P is pounds is determined as 0.14 lb.

<h3>Acceleration of the system</h3>

The acceleration of the system is calculated as follows;

W - T = m₂a --- (1)

T = m₁a ----(2)

μmgsinθ - m₁a = m₂a

(0.3 x 3 x 9.8 x sin40) - (0.4 + 0.2)a = 3a

5.67 - 0.6a = 3a

5.67 = 3.6a

a = 5.67/3.6

a = 1.58 m/s²

<h3> Relative Weight of P</h3>

W = ma

W = 0.4 x 1.58

W = 0.632 N = 0.14 lb
