The train accelerates at the rate of 20 for some time, until it's just exactly
time to put on the brakes, decelerate at the rate of 100, and come to a
screeching stop after a total distance of exactly 2.7 km.

The speed it reaches while accelerating is exactly the speed it starts decelerating from.

Speed reached while accelerating = (acceleration-1) (Time-1) = .2 time-1

Speed started from to slow down = (acceleration-2) (Time-2) = 1 time-2  

The speeds are equal.
.2 time-1 = 1 time-2
time-1 = 5 x time-2

It spends 5 times as long speeding up as it spends slowing down.

The distance it covers speeding up = 1/2 A (5T)-squared
= 0.1 x 25 T-squared = 2.5 T-squared.

The distance it covers slowing down = 1/2 A (T-squared)
= 0.5 T-squared.

Total distance = 2,700 meters.
(2.5 + .5) T-squared = 2,700
T-squared = 2700/3 = 900

T = 30 seconds

The train speeds up for 150 seconds, reaching a speed of 30 meters per sec
and covering 2,250 meters. 
It then slows down for 30 seconds, covering 450 meters.

Total time = <u>180 sec</u> = 3 minutes, minimum.

Observation:
This solution is worth more than 5 points.

This can be done by hit and trial easily.

Considering train accelerate for 13000s and deaccelerate for 1000s
so total distance covered is = 20cm/s * 13000s + 100cm/s*100s
= (260000 + 10000 )cm
= 270000cm
= 2.7km

So total time taken is - 13100 seconds

Volgvan

Answer:

Explanation:

Use mathematical representations to describe a simple model for waves that includes how the amplitude of a wave is related to the energy in a wave. Patterns can be used to identify cause and effect relationships.

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

All of the frictions are the same, but weight always goes straight down so it can only be A or B. Since they are going down a slope, then the normal force must be sloped. A is the only one out of A and B with a sloped normal force, so it has to be A

From the edge of a cliff, a 0.41 kg projectile is launched with an initial kinetic energy of 1430 J. The projectile's maximum up
NemiM [27]

Answer:

v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s

v₀y = 54.2 m/s

Explanation:

First we find the net launch velocity of projectile. For that purpose, we use the formula of kinetic energy:

K.E = (0.5)(mv₀²)

where,

K.E = initial kinetic energy of projectile = 1430 J

m = mass of projectile = 0.41 kg

v₀ = launch velocity of projectile = ?

Therefore,

1430 J = (0.5)(0.41)v₀²

v₀ = √(6975.6 m²/s²)

v₀ = 83.5 m/s

Now, we find the launching angle, by using formula for maximum height of projectile:

h = v₀² Sin²θ/2g

where,

h = height of projectile = 150 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

θ = launch angle

Therefore,

150 m = (83.5 m/s)²Sin²θ/(2)(9.8 m/s²)

Sin θ = √(0.4216)

θ = Sin⁻¹ (0.6493)

θ = 40.5°

Now, we find the components of launch velocity:

x- component = v₀ₓ = v₀Cosθ  = (83.5 m/s) Cos(40.5°)

<u>v₀ₓ = 63.5 m/s</u>

y- component = v₀y = v₀Sinθ  = (83.5 m/s) Sin(40.5°)

<u>v₀y = 54.2 m/s</u>
