Compared with the car, the truck will travel four times as far.

The initial velocity of car and truck, u = 0

The acceleration of both the truck and car = a

The length of time for the acceleration = t

Let the time the truck accelerated be 2t

<h3>How to calculate the distance traveled by car and truck?</h3>

The distance traveled by car is calculated as;

s = ut + ¹/₂at²

s₁ = 0(t) + ¹/₂at²

s₁ = ¹/₂at²

The distance traveled by truck

s = ut + ¹/₂at²

s₂ = 0(2t) + ¹/₂a (2t)²

s₂ = ¹/₂a x 4t²

s₂ = 4 (¹/₂at²)

s₂ = 4(s₁)

We can conclude that the Truck distance is four times the car distance.

Therefore, Compared with the car, the truck will travel four times as far.

What is measurements?

Sliva [168]

Answer:

the action of measuring something.

Measurement is a comparison of an unknown quantity with a known fixed quantity of the same kind. The value obtained on measuring a quantity is called its magnitude. Magnitude of a quantity is expressed as numbers in its units.

Hooke's law describes a certain light spring of unstretched length 34.8 cm. When one end is attached to the top of a doorframe a

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

a) $k = 1343.6\,\frac{N}{m}$ , b) $l = 0.501\,m\,(50.1\,cm)$

Explanation:

a) The Hooke's law states that spring force is directly proportional to change in length. That is to say:

$F \propto \Delta l$

In this case, the force is equal to the weight of the object:

$F = m\cdot g$

$F = (8.22\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )$

$F = 80.614\,N$

The spring constant is:

$k = \frac{F}{\Delta l}$

$k = \frac{80.614\,N}{0.408\,m-0.348\,m}$

$k = 1343.6\,\frac{N}{m}$

b) The length of the spring is:

$F = k\cdot (l-l_{o})$

$l = l_{o} + \frac{F}{k}$

$l=0.348\,m+\frac{205\,N}{1343.6\,\frac{N}{m} }$

$l = 0.501\,m\,(50.1\,cm)$

A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0. 158 kg. If 2,510. 0 J of heat is required to heat the substance from 32. 0Â°C

guapka [62]

The specific heat of the unknown substance with a mass of 0.158kg is 0.5478 J/g°C

HOW TO CALCULATE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY:

The specific heat capacity of a substance can be calculated using the following formula:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat absorbed (J)
c = specific heat capacity (4.18 J/g°C)
m = mass of substance
∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to this question, 2,510.0 J of heat is required to heat the 0.158kg substance from 32.0°C to 61.0°C. The specific heat capacity can be calculated:

2510 = 158 × c × (61°C - 32°C)

2510 = 4582c

c = 2510 ÷ 4582

c = 0.5478 J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the unknown substance that has a mass of 0.158 kg is 0.5478 J/g°C.

The velocity of a particle moving along the x-axis varies with time according to v(t) = A + Bt−1 , where A = 2 m/s, B = 0.25 m,

kondaur [170]

Answer:

$a= -2\ m/s^2$

$a=-12.5\ m/s^2$

x=2.17 m

x=8.4 m

Explanation:

Given that

$v=A+Bt^{-1}$

$v=2+0.25t^{-1}$

To find acceleration :

we know that

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-0.5t^{-2}$

$a=-0.5t^{-2}$

Acceleration at t= 2 s

$a=-0.5\times 2^{-2}$

$a= -2\ m/s^2$

Acceleration at t= 5 s

$a=-0.5\times 5^{-2}$

$a=-12.5\ m/s^2$

We know that

$v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$dx=\left(2+\dfrac{1}{4t}\right)dt$

Position at t= 2 s:

$\int_{0}^{x}dx=\int_{1}^{2} \left(2+0.25\dfrac{1}{t}\right)dt$

$x=\left [2t+0.25\ lnt \right ]_{1}^{2}$

x=2+0.25 ln2

x=2.17 m

Position at t= 5 s:

$\int_{0}^{x}dx=\int_{1}^{5} \left(2+0.25\dfrac{1}{t}\right)dt$

$x=\left [2t+0.25\ lnt \right ]_{1}^{5}$

x=8+0.25 ln5

x=8.4 m
