Answer:

The speed of the car before it began to skid is 47.56 m/s.

Explanation:

We can use kinematics to solve this problem.

We are given three known variables:

Δx = 290 m
a = -3.90 m/s²
v = 0 m/s (final velocity is 0 m/s because the car skids to a stop).

We can use this kinematic equation to solve for the initial velocity, v₀.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known variables into the equation.

(0)² = v₀² + 2(-3.9)(290)
0 = v₀² - 2262
2262 = v₀²
v₀ = 47.56 m/s

The speed of the car before it began to skid is 47.46 m/s.

The engine of a locomotive exerts a constant force of 8.1*10^5 N to accelerate a train to 68 km/h. Determine the time (in min) t

Bumek [7]

Answer:443.1 s

Explanation:

Given

Engine of a locomotive exerts a force of $8.1\times 10^5 N$

Mass of train $=1.9\times 10^7$

Final speed (v) $=68 km/h \approx 18.88 m/s$

F=ma

so $acceleration(a) =\frac{F}{m}=\frac{8.1\times 10^5}{1.9\times 10^7}$

$a=0.042631 m/s^2$

and acceleration is

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$0.042631=\frac{18.88-0}{t}$

$t=443.089 \approx 443.1 s$

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

a. 1100 meters.

b. Between B and C

c.1. Between point D and E

c2. Between point D and E

d. 3.7 m/s.

Explanation:

The girl travels the distance of 1100 meters from starting to the end. There is no motion occurs between B and C due to no change of distance value from 200 meters. Between point D and E, the girls covers 500 meters long distance and also covers fastest distance between point D and E because between point D and E, the girl covers 500 meters distance in 30 seconds which is the highest of all. The average speed of the girls is 3.7 meter/seconds if we divide total distance i.e. 1100 meters by time which is 300 seconds.
