The final velocity of car is 20 m/s. The car is accelerating at a rate of 2.5m/s over a 10 seconds period of time. What is the i
balu736 [363]

Answer:

-5m/s

Explanation:

Since

acceleration=final velocity-initial velocity/time

2.5m/s^2=20m/s- initial velocity/10s

2.5m/s^2×10s= 20m/s -initial velocity

25m/s=20m/s - initial velocity

Initial velocity=20m/s-25m/s

= -5m/s

A pendulum consists of a stone with mass m swinging on a string of length L and negligible mass. The stone has a speed of v0 whe
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

(a) v = \sqrt{ mv_0^2 - 2gL(1-\cos(\theta))}

(b) \theta = \arccos(\frac{2gL-v_0^2}{2gL})

(c) E_{total} = \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2

Explanation:

(a) The total mechanical energy of the system is conserved.

K_A + U_A = K_B + U_B\\\frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 + 0 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + mgh \\h = L - L\cos(\theta) = L(1 - \cos\theta)\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 - mgL(1-\cos(\theta))\\v^2 = mv_0^2 - 2gL(1-\cos(\theta))\\v = \sqrt{ mv_0^2 - 2gL(1-\cos(\theta))}

(b) The conservation of energy states

K_A + U_A = K_M + U_M\\\frac{1}{2}mv_0^2 + 0 = 0 + mgL(1-\cos(\theta))\\1-\cos(\theta) = \frac{v_0^2}{2gL}\\\cos(\theta) = 1-\frac{v_0^2}{2gL} = \frac{2gL-v_0^2}{2gL}\\\theta = \arccos(\frac{2gL-v_0^2}{2gL})

(c) As explained in part (a) the total mechanical energy of the system is equal to the initial kinetic energy, since the potential energy of the system at that point is zero.

E_{total}= K_A + U_A = K_A + 0\\E_{total} = \frac{1}{2}mv_0^2

Light is incident perpendicularly on four transparent films of different thickness. The thickness of each film is given in the d
exis [7]

Answer:

1/4 λ film

Explanation:

Let L = total path length then L = 2 t where t is film thickness

There will be a 180 deg phase change at the air-film interface but no

phase change at the film-air interface

L = n * wavelength / 2 where n = 1, 3, 5, 7 etc

(the total path L must be an odd number of 1/2 wavelengths)

Or t = n * wavelength / 4 (the film must be an odd number

of 1/4 wavelengths thick)

1/4 λ film satisfies this condition

Note: Find the missing diagram in the attachment section.

Which formula is used to find an objects acceleration
irina [24]

Answer:

a=∆v/∆t

Explanation:

The definition of Acceleration is the change in velocity in a given time. So this means you first calculate ∆v (Change in velocity), and you calculate ∆t which is the time taken to apply that change in velocity. Then you find a= ∆v/∆t. This gives us the equation of Acceleration.
