A person walks first at a constant speed of 5.10 m/s along a straight line from point circled a to point circled b and then back

along the line from circled b to circled a at a constant speed of 2.75 m/s. (a) what is her average speed over the entire trip? 3.57 correct: your answer is correct. m/s

Average speed = total distance / time

1) Distance from A to B

Distance = velocity * time  = V1 * t1 = 5.10 t1

2) Distance from B to A

Distance = velocity * time  = V2*t 2 = 2.75 t2

Distance from A to B = distance from B to A => 5.10t1 = 2.75t2

=> t2 = 5.10t1 / 2.75

3) Average speed = total distance / total time =

total distance = 2 * 5.10 t1 = 10.20 t1

Average speed = [10.20 t1] / [t1 + 5.10 t1 / 2.75]

As you see t1 is factor for the three terms, so you can simplify it

=> Average speed = [10.20 ] / [1 + 5.10/2.75] = 3.57 m/s

Answer: 3.57 m/s

Answer:

X(t) = 13/13 cos(12t+α)

C =13/13

π/6 s

Explanation:

(A) A body with mass 200 g is attached to the end of a spring that is stretched 20 cm by a force of 9 N. At time t = 0 the body is pulled 1 m in to the right, stretching the spring, 3 set in motion with an initial velocity of 5 m/s to the left.  

(a) Find X(t) in the form c • cos(w_o*t— α)  

(b) Find the amplitude 3 Period of motion of the body 1  

mass: m = 200g =  0.200 kg  

displacement: ΔX = 20 cm =  0.20 m

Spring Constant: K =  9/0.20 = 45 N/m

IV:   X(0) = 1m V(0) = -5 m/s

Simple Harmonic Motion: c•cos(cosw_t— α) = X(t)  

Circular Frequency: w_o = √k/m= √36/(0.20) = 13 rad/s

X(0) = 1m =c_1

X'(0) = V(0) = c_2*w_o/w_o

        = -5/12 =   c_2

"radians Technically Unitless"  

Amplitude: c = √ci^2 + c^2 ==> √1^2 + (-5/12)^2 = 1 m =13/13 = c

X(t) = 13/13 cos(12t+α)

since, C>0 : damped forced vibration c_1>0, c_2>0

phase angle 2π+tan^-1(c_2/c_1)

                        =2π+tan^-1(-5/12/1)= 5.884

period: T =2π/w_o

                =π/6 s

A baseball pitcher throws the ball in a motion where there is rotation of the forearm about the elbow joint as well as other mov
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

364.4 J

Explanation:

I = Moment of inertia of the forearm = 0.550 kgm²

v = linear velocity of the ball relative to elbow joint = 17.1 m/s

r = distance from the joint = 0.470 m

w = angular velocity

Using the equation

v = r w

17.1 = (0.470) w

w = 36.4 rad/s

Rotational kinetic energy of the forearm is given as

RKE = (0.5) I w²

RKE = (0.5) (0.550) (36.4)²

RKE = 364.4 J
