To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of motion.

By definition we know that the position of a body is given by

x=x_0+v_0t+at^2

Where

x_0 = Initial position

v_0 = Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

t= time

And the velocity can be expressed as,

v_f = v_0 + at

Where,

v_f = Final velocity

For our case we have that there is neither initial position nor initial velocity, then

x= at^2

With our values we have x = 401.4m, t=4.945s, rearranging to find a,

a=\frac{x}{t^2}

a = \frac{ 401.4}{4.945^2}

a = 16.41m/s^2

Therefore the final velocity would be

v_f = v_0 + at

v_f = 0 + (16.41)(4.945)

v_f = 81.14m/s

Therefore the final velocity is 81.14m/s

A ball is dropped off the balcony of a hotel room and it takes 2.8s to fall to the ground . how high above the ground is the bal
RideAnS [48]

The height of the ball above the ground is 38.45 m

First we will calculate the velocity of the ball when it touch the ground by using first equation of motion

v=u+gt

v=0+9.81×2.8

v=27.468 m/s

now the height of the ground can be calculated by the formula

v=√2gh

27.468=√2×9.81×h

h=38.45 m

The engine of a 2000 kg Mercedes going up Pike’s Peak delivers energy to its drive wheel at the rate 100 kW . Neglecting air res
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of Mercedes engine = 2000 Kg

Power delivered = 100 kW

angle made with horizontal = 30°

acceleration due to gravity =  10 m/s²

largest speed car can sustain = ?

we know,

Power = Force x velocity

P = F x v

P = mg sinθ x v

P = mg sin 30° x v

P = 0.5 mg  x v

v = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3}{0.5\times 2000 \times 10}

v = 10 m/s

hence, the maximum velocity is equal to v = 10 m/s

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

A 300-kg crate is placed on a adjustable incline plane. as one end of the incline is raised, the crate begins to move downward. if the crate slides down the plane with the acceleration of .70 m/s2 , when the incline is 25 degrees, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between ramp and crate?
