How long does it take for a train to increase its velocity from 10m/s to 40m/s if it accelerates at 3 m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

Vi = 10 m/s

Vf = 40 m/s

a = 3 m/s^2

Formula

a = (vf - vi) /t              Substitute the givens into this formuls

Solution

3 = (40 - 10) / t          Multiply both sides by t

3*t = t(40 - 10)/t        Combine. Cancel t's on the right

3*t = 30                     Divide by 3

3t/3 = 30 / 3

Answer: t = 10 seconds.

An experiment is performed to determine how bats capture insects in the dark. A pair of microphones are set up on either end of
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Doppler's effect here .

original frequency = 79.79 kHz

apparent frequency due to movement of source ( bat ) = 81.63 Hz

Let the velocity of bat be v .

expression for apparent frequency can be given as follows

n = \frac{n_0V}{V-v}

n is apparent frequency , n₀ is original frequency , V is velocity of light and v is velocity of source of sound

Putting the values

81.63 = \frac{79.79\times 340}{340-v}

340-v = 332.33

v = 7.67 m /s

velocity of bat is 7.67 m /s .

A 4-kilogram ball moving at 8 m/sec to the right collides with a 1-kilogram ball at rest. After the collision,
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
Conservation of momentum: total momentum before = total momentum after

Momentum = mass x velocity

So before the collision:
4kg x 8m/s = 32
1kg x 0m/s = 0
32+0=32

Therefore after the collision
4kg x 4.8m/s = 19.2
1kg x βm/s = β
19.2 + β = 32

Therefore β = 12.8 m/s

A wheel has a radius of 5.9 m. How far (path length) does a point on the circumference travel if the wheel is rotated through an
posledela

Answer:

(a). The path length is 3.09 m at 30°.

(b). The path length is 188.4 m at 30 rad.

(c). The path length is 1111.5 m at 30 rev.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius = 5.9 m

(a). Angle \theta=30°

We need to calculate the angle in radian

\theta=30\times\dfrac{\pi}{180}

\theta=0.523\ rad

We need to calculate the path length

Using formula of path length

Path\ length =angle\times radius

Path\ length=0.523\times5.9

Path\ length =3.09\ m

(b). Angle = 30 rad

We need to calculate the path length

Path\ length=30\times5.9

Path\ length=177\ m

(c). Angle = 30 rev

We need to calculate the angle in rad

\theta=30\times2\pi

\theta=188.4\ rad

We need to calculate the path length

Path\ length=188.4\times5.9

Path\ length =1111.56\ m

Hence, (a). The path length is 3.09 m at 30°.

(b). The path length is 188.4 m at 30 rad.

(c). The path length is 1111.5 m at 30 rev.
