Answer:
A) The acceleration is zero
<em>B) The total distance is 112 m</em>
Explanation:
<u>Velocity vs Time Graph</u>
It shows the behavior of the velocity as time increases. If the velocity increases, then the acceleration is positive, if the velocity decreases, the acceleration is negative, and if the velocity is constant, then the acceleration is zero.
The graph shows a horizontal line between points A and B. It means the velocity didn't change in that interval. Thus the acceleration in that zone is zero.
A. To calculate the acceleration, we use the formula:

Let's pick the extremes of the region AB: (0,8) and (12,8). The acceleration is:

This confirms the previous conclusion.
B. The distance covered by the body can be calculated as the area behind the graph. Since the velocity behaves differently after t=12 s, we'll split the total area into a rectangle and a triangle.
Area of rectangle= base*height=12 s * 8 m/s = 96 m
Area of triangle= base*height/2 = 4 s * 8 m/s /2= 16 m
The total distance is: 96 m + 16 m = 112 m
<span>This problem is solved by the equation of motion:
x = x0 + v0*t + 1/2*a*t^2,
Here x0 = 0, v0 = 40ft/sec and a = -5 ft/s^2, we need to solve for t:
v = v0 + a*t, solve how long does it take to stop: 0 = v0 + a*t --> a*t = -v0 --> t = -v0/a
-- > 40/5 = 8 seconds to stop.
In this time, the car travels x = 0 + 40*8 + 0.5*-5*8^2 ft ~ 160 ft.
Answer: The car travels 160 ft.</span>
Answer:
Tension is also known as Force...
and Force is mass× acceleration.
so....1000×0.70=700N
Answer:
See answer below
Explanation:
Hi there,
To get started, recall the Center of Mass formula for two masses:
where m is mass and x is displacement <em>from the center of the shape.</em>
Since masses at the center of a geometric shape have a displacement (x) value of 0, as the mass is already of the center, and does not affect Xcm. So, we can disregard the central mass, hence we use the above formula for two masses.
We can arbitrarily define left to be a negative (-) displacement, and vice versa for right direction. We proceed with the formula:
Since we defined left (-) and right (+), we notice the center of mass is (+) value. This makes sense, as there is slightly more mass on the right side. Hence, you should place a support 1/6 of the rod's length away from the rod's center.
Study well and persevere.
thanks,
