At what time was the person at a position of 0m?

Physics
1 answer:
Anni [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer: The person was not at a position of "0" at any time. The person started at 10 metres from the starting line. The explanation below shows how to use the standard formula for position when the initial position is not "0". It is noteworthy that the standard expression of the formula for distance travelled does not include a variable (e.g. "d") for distance at the start (when t(time) = 0)

Explanation: At time = 0, the start, the person was at 10m distance from the starting line. Therefore, to use the standard equation, "s + ut + 1/2att (t squared, that is), distance from starting line = 10 + s, that is, total distance from starting line  equals initial position, 10 metres, plus "s" (distance travelled from t = 0 to t = 1) in metres.

for the section of the graph from "0" seconds (t = 0) to 1 second (t = 1):

s = ut + 1/2att

the initial position is 10 metres.

s = 10

the distance is constant from t = 0 to t = 1, therefore the velocity for the whole of that section of graph must be 0.

u = 0

there is no change in the velocity from t = 0 to t= 1, therefore the acceleration for the first section of the graph must be 0.

a = 0

s = ut + 1/2att

  = (0 x 1) + 1/2 (0 x 1 x 1)

  = (0) + 1/2 (0)

  = 0

total distance from starting line (position) equals initial position plus change in position (distance travelled).

at t = 1,

position = 10 + 0

 = 10 metres

The whole of the graph can be analysed using this process for each straight section of the graph separately, adding "s" for each section to the previous total of distance from starting line.

using "d" for initial distance from starting line ( position ), d1 for distance from starting line at t = 1, d2 for distance from starting line at t = 2, etcetera:

section 1, t = 0 to t = 1:

d1 (t=0 to t=1)  =  10 + s (t=0 to t=1).

section 2, t= 1 to t = 2:

d2 (t=0 to t=2) = 10 + s (t=0 to t=1) + s (t=1 to t=2).

etcetera.

An ammeter with a resistance of 5.0 ohm is connected in series with a 3.0V cell and a lamp rated at 300 mA, 3V. Calculate the cu
Alex

Answer:

I = 0.2 A

Explanation:

Lamp is rated at 300 mA

I_lamp = 0.3 A

Voltage is; V = 3V

Thus; Resistance is given by;

R = V/I

R = 3/0.3

R = 10 ohms

Now, since the ammeter of 5 ohms is connected in series with the lamp. Thus equivalent resistance;

R_eq = 10 + 5

R_eq = 15 ohms

Ammeter current will be;

I = V/R_eq

I = 3/15

I = 0.2 A

9. Seismic waves are
Brilliant_brown [7]

d. both a and b

Explanation:

Seismic waves are both transverse and compressional or longitudinal waves.

A seismic wave is an elastic wave that causes a sudden disturbance in earth materials.

  • Seismic waves are both longitudinal and transverse waves.
  • There are two main types of seismic waves which are the surface and body waves.
  • The surface waves runs on the earth surface. These are the rayleigh and love waves.
  • The surface waves causes damages on the earth surface as they are both longitudinal and transverse.
  • Body waves moves within the earth surface. They are p-waves and s-waves.
  • P-waves are longitudinal or compressional waves that propagates within the earth surface.
  • S-waves are transverse waves that moves perpendicularly to their direction of propagation.
