A car that is standing still accelerates up a hill with a slope of 6.4% at an average acceleration of 2.93 ft/s^2. The hill is 1
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

213 s

Explanation:

Slope is the ratio of change in vertical distance to change in horizontal distance.

Slope = vertical height / horizontal height

Therefore:

6.4% = vertical height / 12.42

vertical height = 6.4% * 12.42

vertical height = 0.8 miles

The distance travelled by the car (s) is:

s² = 0.8² + 12.42²

s² = 154.9

s = 12.45 miles

Acceleration (a) =  2.93 ft/s^2 = 0.00055 mile/s²

initial velocity (u) = 0, final velocity = 203 mph

Using:

s = ut + 0.5at²

12.45 = 0.5(0.00055)t²

t =213 s

A cat jumps from 2.5-meter-tall bookshelf to a 1.3-meter-tall countertop. If the cat
UkoKoshka [18]

The change in Potential energy of the cat is 176.4 J.

<h3 /><h3>Potential Energy:</h3>

This is the energy due to the position of a body. The S.I unit is Joules (J)

The formula for change in potential energy.

<h3 /><h3>Formula:</h3>
  • ΔP.E = mg(H-h).............. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • ΔP.E = Change in potential energy
  • m = mass of the cat
  • g = acceleration due to gravity
  • H = First height
  • h = second height.

From the question,

<h3>Given:</h3>
  • m = 15 kg
  • H = 2.5 m
  • h = 1.3 m
  • g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • ΔP.E = 15×9.8(2.5-1.3)
  • ΔP.E = 15×9.8×1.2
  • ΔP.E = 176.4 J.

Hence, The change in Potential energy of the cat is 176.4 J

You are coasting on your 12-kg bicycle at 13 m/s and a 5.0-g bug splatters on your helmet. The bug was initially moving at 1.5 m
Brut [27]

Answer:

a) Pi,c = 1066 kgm/s

b) Pi,b = 0.0075 kgm/s  

c) ΔV = - 0.0007 m/s

d) ΔV = - 0.0008 m/s

Explanation:

Given:-

- The mass of the bicycle, mc = 12 kg

- The mass of passenger, mp = 70 kg

- The mass of the bug, mb = 5.0 g

- The initial speed of the bicycle, vpi = 13 m/s

- The initial speed of the bug, vbi = 1.5 m/s

Find:-

a.What is the initial momentum of you plus your bicycle?

b.What is the initial momentum of the bug?

c.What is your change in velocity due to the collision the bug?

d.What would the change in velocity have been if the bug were traveling in the opposite direction?

Solution:-

- First we will set our one dimensional coordinate system, taking right to be positive in the direction of bicycle.

- The initial linear momentum (Pi,c) of the passenger and the bicycle would be:

                       Pi,c = vpi* ( mc + mp)

                       Pi,c = 13* ( 12+ 70 )

                       Pi,c = 1066 kgm/s  

- The initial linear momentum (Pi,b) of the bug would be:

                       Pi,b = vbi*mb

                       Pi,b = 0.005*1.5

                       Pi,b = 0.0075 kgm/s  

- We will consider the bicycle, the passenger and the bug as a system in isolation on which no external unbalanced forces are acting. This validates the use of linear conservation of momentum.

- The bicycle, passenger and bug all travel in the (+x) direction after the bug splatters on the helmet.

                       Pi = Pf

                       Pi,c + Pi,b = V*(mb + mc + mp)

Where,    V : The velocity of the (bicycle, passenger and bug) after collision.

                      1066 + 0.0075 = V*( 0.005 + 12 + 70 )

                      V = 1066.0075 / 82.005

                      V = 12.9993 m/s

- The change in velocity is Δv = 13 - 12.9993 =  - 0.00070 m/s      

- If the bug travels in the opposite direction then the sign of the initial momentum of the bug changes from (+) to (-).

- We will apply the linear conservation of momentum similarly.

                      Pi = Pf

                      Pi,c + Pi,b = V*(mb + mc + mp)        

                      1066 - 0.0075 = V*( 0.005 + 12 + 70 )

                      V = 1065.9925 / 82.005

                      V = 12.99911 m/s

- The change in velocity is Δv = 13 - 12.99911 =  -0.00088 m/s
