When an object in simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, its acceleration is also at a maximum.

Reason: The speed is zero when the simple harmonic motion is at its maximum displacement, however, the acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. The velocity reverses the direction at that point therefore its rate of change is maximum at that moment. thus the acceleration is at its maximum at this point

Hope that helps!

An apple falls out of a tree from a height of 2.3m. what is the impact speed of the apple

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:6.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Apple fall from a height of $h=2.3 m$

We need to find the impact speed of apple which can be given by using

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

h=Displacement

Assuming initial velocity to be zero

substituting the value we get

$v^2-0=2\times 9.8\times 2.3$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 2.3}$

$v=6.71\ m/s$

Car X traveled 3d distance in t time. Car Y traveled 2d distance in t time. Therefore, the speed of car X, is 3d/t, the speed of car Y, is 2d/t. Since speed is the distance taken in a given time.

In figure-2, they are at the same place, we are asked to find car Y's position when car X is at line-A. We can calculate the time car X needs to travel to there. Let's say that car X reaches line-A in t' time.

$V_x .t' = 3d\\ \frac{3d}{t} .t' = 3d\\ t'=t$

Okay, it takes t time for car X to reach line-A. Let's see how far does car Y goes.

$V_y.t = \frac{2d}{t} .t = 2d$

We found that car Y travels 2d distance. So, when car X reaches line-A, car Y is just a d distance behind car X.

An object, initially at rest, moves 250 m in 17 s. What is its acceleration?

mash [69]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 250 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

t = 17 s

Find: a

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

250 m = (0 m/s) (17 s) + ½ a (17 s)²

a = 1.73 m/s²
