I don't know if you need to complete this question or do it otherwise, however, I managed to find on the Internet on several places this completion of your sentence:
<span>Electric current flows through a long rod generating thermal energy at a uniform volumetric rate of q = 2 x 10</span>⁶ W/m³.
I'm not sure whether that is the answer you were looking for, but that's what I found.
Answer:
a) x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
b) x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
Explanation:
Note: The position of the horse is x = 2m. There is a typing error in the question. Otherwise, The solution to cubic equation holds a negative value of time t.
Given:
- v(t) = 10 + 2*t^2 (radar gun)
- x*(t) = 10 + 5t^2 + 3t^3 (our coordinate)
Find:
-The position x of horse as a function of time t in radar system.
-The position of the horse at x = 2m in our coordinate system
Solution:
- The position of horse according to radar gun:
v(t) = dx / dt = 10 + 2*t^2
- Separate variables:
dx = (10 + 2*t^2).dt
- Integrate over interval x = 0 @ t= 0
x(t) = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
- time @ x = 2 :
2 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3
0 = 10t + (2/3)*t^3 + 2
- solve for t:
t = 0.1875 s
- Evaluate x* at t = 0.1875 s
x*(0.1875) = 10 + 5(0.1875)^2 + 3(0.1875)^3
x*(0.1875) = 10.18 m
Scattering occurs when light changes direction after colliding with particles of matter.
