A car is traveling along a straight road at a velocity of 30m/s when its engine cuts off. For the next ten seconds, the car slow

s down, and its average acceleration is a₁. For the next five seconds, the car slows down further, and its average acceleration is a₂. The ratio of the average acceleration values is a₁/a₂=1.5. Find the velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval.​

The velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval is 15a₂ + 30.

<h3>Initial velocity of the car</h3>

v = u + at

after 10 seconds;

v = 30 + 10a₁  --(1)

after 5 seconds

v₂ = v + 5a₂ ---- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together

v₂ = 30 + 10a₁ + 5a₂

but a₁/a₂=1.5

a₁ = 1.5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 10(1.5a₂) + 5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 15a₂ + 5a₂

v₂ = 30 + 20a₂

from equation (2), v₂ = v + 5a₂

v + 5a₂ = 30 + 20a₂

v = 15a₂ + 30

Thus, the velocity of the car at the end of the initial ten-second interval is 15a₂ + 30.

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: In that case, Put something like "My hypothesis is that the car will take (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 1, (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 2, (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 3, and (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 4" Replacing x with random numbers, or number close to the actual found numbers, but honestly as long as the guesses arent outrageous you should get the question right

An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. At one position along its path it has a velocity of 34.3 m
Tomtit [17]

Explanation:

We'll need two equations.

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

where v is the final velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, x is the final position, and x₀ is the initial position.

x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t

where t is time.

Given:

v = 47.5 m/s

v₀ = 34.3 m/s

x - x₀ = 40100 m

Find: a and t

(47.5)² = (34.3)² + 2a(40100)

a = 0.0135 m/s²

40100 = ½ (47.5 + 34.3)t

t = 980 s
