A football quarterback runs 15.0 m straight down the playing field in 2.50 s. he is then hit and pushed 3.00 m straight backward

in 1.75 s. he breaks the tackle and runs straight forward another 21.0 m in 5.20 s. calculate his average velocity (a) for each of the three intervals and (b) for the entire motion.

Define
t = time (s),
dt = change in time (s)
 d =distance (m).

The scenario is as follows:
t = 0 s: Begin. Quarterback runs forward.
d = 0

t = 2.5 s: Quarterback is tackled and pushed backward.
d = 15 m

t = 2.5+1.75 = 4.25 s: Quarterback resumes the run forward.
d = 15 - 3 = 12 m

t = 4.25+5.2 = 9.45 s: Quarerback runs another 21 m forward.
d = 12+21 = 33 m

The graph showing the scenario is shown below.

Calculations:
Interval 1:
Average velocty = 15/2.5 = 6.0 m/s

Interval 2:
Average velocity = (12 - 15)/(1.75) = - 1.7 m/s

Interval 3:
Average velocity = (33 - 12)/5.2 = 4.0 m/s

Entire motion:
Average velocity = (33 - 0)/9.45 = 3.5 m/s

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1)0.325

2)6.17\ \rm m/s

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

The angle that falling raindrops make with the vertical=18^\circ

Let V_R be the velocity of the raindrops and V_B be the velocity of the bus.

1)

\dfrac{V_R}{V_B}=\tan 18^\circ\\\dfrac{V_R}{V_B}=0.315\\

2)Speed of the raindrops=0.315\times 19

=6.17\ \rm m/s

What is a conservative force?
almond37 [142]

Answer:

A conservative force is a force with the property that the total work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path taken Equivalently if a particle travels in a closed loop the total work done by a conservative force is zero
