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

. A mass m is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. It is brought to rest in a distance of 62.5 m by a net force of 15.0 N.
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

Explanation:

From the equations of motion;

s = 0.5(u+v)t

Making t thr subject of formula;

t = 2s/(u+v)

t = time taken

s = distance travelled during deceleration = 62.5 m

u = initial speed = 25 m/s

v = final velocity = 0

Substituting the given values;

t = (2×62.5)/(25+0)

t = 5

Since, t = 5 the acceleration during this period is;

acceleration a = ∆v/t = (v-u)/t

a = (25)/5

a = 5 m/s^2

Force F = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Making m the subject of formula;

m = F/a

net force F = 15.0N

Substituting the values

m = 15/5

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 25 kg, sit in seats opposite one another in a rotating merry-go-round with an arm leng
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

92.25 kgm^2

Explanation:

Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is

\sum I = m_1r_1^2 + m_2r_2^2

where m_1 = 16 kg, m_2 = 25 kg are the masses of 2 children r_1 = R-2 = 1.5m are their distance to the center of rotation

\sum I = 16*1.5^2 + 25*1.5^2 = 1.5^2(16 + 25) = 92.25 kgm^2
