Answer:

Part a)

v_{avg} = 37.5 m/s

Part b)

a = 2.25 m/s^2

Part c)

d = 750 m

Explanation:

Part a)

Since we know that bus is moving uniformly from initial speed of 15 m/s to 60 m/s in 20 seconds

So we will have

v_{avg} = \frac{d}{t}

we know that

d = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2} t

so we have

v_{avg} = \frac{v_f + v_i}{2}

v_{avg} = \frac{15 + 60}{2}

v_{avg} = 37.5 m/s

Part b)

As we know that acceleration is rate of change in velocity

so it is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{60 - 15}{20}

a = 2.25 m/s^2

Part c)

distance moved by the bus is given as

d = v_{avg} \times t

d = 37.5 \times 20

d = 750 m

Vf= 60m/s
vs = 15m/s
t=20s
a = vf-vs/t
a = 45m/s / 20s
a = 2,25 m/s²
S = vs *t + 1/2 a*t²
S = 15 m/s*20s +1/2 * 2,25m/s² * 400 s²
S = 300m +  450m
S = 750m
v average = 750m/20s
v average = 37,5 m/s

storchak [24]

Answer:

because energy will be lost due to friction, sound, and heat (arguably similar to friction) and ENERGY MUST STAY THE SAME so it is IMPOSSIBLE for the ball to bounce higher than when dropped!

A 3200-lb car is moving at 64 ft/s down a 30-degree grade when it runs out of fuel. Find its velocity after that if friction exe
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The velocity is 40 ft/sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 3200 lb

Angle = 30°

Speed = 64 ft/s

The resistive force with magnitude proportional to the square of the speed,

F_{r}=kv^2

Where, k = 1 lb s²/ft²

We need to calculate the velocity

Using balance equation

F\sin\theta-F_{r}=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}

Put the value into the formula

3200\sin 30-kv^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}

Put the value of k

3200\times\dfrac{1}{2}-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}

1600-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}

At terminal velocity \dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}=0

So, 1600-v^2=0

v=\sqrt{1600}

v=40\ ft/sec

Hence, The velocity is 40 ft/sec.
