A car traveling at 60km/h undergoes uniform acceleration at a rate of 2/ms^2 until is velocity reached 120km/h determine the dis

jenyasd209 [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a car, u = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s

Acceleration, a = 2m/s²

Final speed, v = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance.

acceleration = rate of change of velocity

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{33.33 -16.67 }{2}\\\\t=8.33\ s$

let the distance be d.

$d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\frac{33.33^{2}-16.67^{2}}{2(2)}\\\\d=208.25\ m$

Hence, the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance is 208.25 m and 8.33 seconds respectively.

A 1000-kilogram car traveling with a velocity of 20. meters per second decelerates uniformly at -5.0 meters per second2 until it

Elis [28]

Answer:

-20000 kgm/s

Explanation:

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its change in velocity. The S.I unit of impulse is kgm/s.

Mathematically, impulse can be expressed as

I = m(v-u).............. Equation 1.

Where I = impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest, m = mass of the car, u = initial velocity of the car, v = final velocity of the car.

Given: m = 1000 kg, u = 20 m/s, v = 0 m/s ( to rest)

Substitute into equation 1

I = 100(0-20)

I = 1000(-20)

I = -20000 kgm/s

Hence the impulse applied to the car to bring it to rest = -20000 kgm/s

The distance between two particles is 2 centimeters. If the distance is increased to 4 centimeters, the force will be ?

postnew [5]

Answer:

The new force is 1/4 of the previous force.

Explanation:

Given

$Initial\ Distance = 2cm$ ---- $r_1$

$New\ Distance = 4cm$ --- $r_2$

Required

Determine the new force

Let the two particles be q1 and q2.

The initial force F1 is:

$F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_1^2}$ --- Coulomb's law

Substitute 2 for r1

$F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{2^2}$

$F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4}$

The new force (F2) is

$F_2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r_2^2}$

Substitute 4 for r2

$F_2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4^2}$

$F_2 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4*4}$

$F_2 = \frac{1}{4}*\frac{kq_1q_2}{4}$

Substitute $F_1 = \frac{kq_1q_2}{4}$

$F_2 = \frac{1}{4}*F_1$

$F_2 = \frac{F_1}{4}$

The new force is 1/4 of the previous force.

A machine that operates a ride at the fair requires 2500 J to lift a 294 N child 5.0 m. What is the efficiency of this machine?

NeX [460]

Answer:

η = 58.8%

Explanation:

Work is defined as the force applied by the distance traveled by the body.

$W =F*d$

where:

W = work [J] (units of joules)

F = force = 294 [N]

d = distance = 5 [m]

$W = 294*5\\W = 1470 [J]\\$

Efficiency is defined as the energy required to perform an activity in relation to the energy actually added to perform some activity. This can be better understood by means of the following equation.

$efficiency = W_{done}/W_{required}\\efficiency = 1470/2500\\efficiency = 0.588 = 58.8%$
