David is driving a steady 30.0 m/s when he passes Tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. Tina begins to accelerate at a steady
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let after time t , Tina catches up David .

Distance travelled by them are equal ,

Distance travelled by Tina

s = ut + 1/2 a t²

= .5 x 2.10 t²

= 1.05 t²

Distance travelled by David

= 30 t ( because of uniform velocity )

1.05 t² = 30t

t = 28.57 s

Distance travelled by Tina

= 1/2 a t²

= .5 x 2.10 x 28.57²

= 857 m approx.

What momentum of a 50kilogram ice skater gliding across the ice at a speed of 5m/s?
Ivenika [448]
Momentum (P) = Mass (kg) * Velocity (m/s)

P = M * V
P = 50 * 5
P = 250

So momentum is 250 kgm/s

7) A crazy cat (yes, this is redundant) is running along the roof of a 60 m tall building. The cat is moving at a constant veloc
gregori [183]

Answer:

The distance from the base of the building to the landing site is 154 m.

The total flight time is 3.5 s.

At the moment of impact, the velocity vector of the cat is v = (44 m/s, -34.3 m/s) and its magnitude is 55.8 m/s.

Explanation:

The equations for the position and velocity vectors of the cat are as follows:

r = (x0 + v0x · t, y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

v = (v0x, v0y + g · t)

Where:

r = position vector of the cat at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity.

t = time.

y0 = initial vertical position.

v0y = initial vertical velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward position as positive).

v = velocity vector of the cat at time t.

Please, see the attached figure for a better understanding of the problem. Notice that the origin of the frame of reference is located at the launching point so that x0 and y0 = 0. In a horizontal launch, initially there is no vertical velocity, then, v0y = 0.

When the cat reaches the ground, the position vector of the cat will be r1 (see figure). The vertical component of r1 is -60 m and the horizontal component will be the horizontal distance traveled by the cat (r1x). Then, using the equation of the y-component of the position vector, we can obtain the time of flight and with that time we can obtain the horizontal distance traveled by the cat:

r1y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²

-60 m = 0 m + 0 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

- 60 m = -4.9 m/s² · t²

-60 m / - 4.9 m/s² = t²

t = 3.5 s

The cat reaches the ground in 3.5 s

Now, we can calculate the horizontal component of r1:

r1x = x0 + v0 · t

r1x = 0 m + 44 m/s · 3.5 s

r1x = 154 m

The distance from the base of the building to the landing site is 154 m.

The total flight time was already calculated and is 3.5 s.

The velocity vector of the cat when it reaches the ground will be:

v = (v0x, v0y + g · t)

v = (44 m/s, 0 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 3.5 s)

v = (44 m/s, -34.3 m/s)

The magintude of the vector "v" is calculated as follows:

|v| = \sqrt{(44 m/s)^{2}+(-34.3 m/s)^{2}} = 55.8 m/s

At the moment of impact, the velocity vector of the cat is v = (44 m/s, -34.3 m/s) and its magnitude is 55.8 m/s.

the half-life of carbon-14 is 5,730 years. After 11,460 year, how much of original carbon-14 remains?
Inessa [10]

Via the half-life equation:

A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h}}

Where the time elapse is 11,460 year and the half-life is 5,730 years.

A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{11460}{5730} \\\\A_{final}=A_{initial}\frac{1}{4} \\\\A_{final}=\frac{1}{4}A_{initial}

Therefore after 11,460 years the amount of carbon-14 is one fourth (1/4) of the original amount.

The wave function of a particle is exp(i(kx-omegat)), where x is distance, t is time, and k and co are positive real numbers. Th
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Momentum, p=\hbar k

Explanation:

The wave function of a particle is given by :

y=exp[i(kx-\omega t)]...............(1)

Where

x is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

k is the propagation constant

\omega is the angular frequency

The relation between the momentum and wavelength is given by :

p=\dfrac{h}{\lambda}............(2)

From equation (1),

k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi}{k}

Use above equation in equation (2) as :

p=\dfrac{h k}{2\pi }

Since, \dfrac{h}{2\pi}=\hbar

p=\hbar k

So, the x-component of the momentum of the particle is \hbar k. Hence, this is the required solution.
