Physics

Answer:

a) V_{o}=14.30 m/s

b) a=-0.046 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The complete question is written below:

An emu moving with constant acceleration covers the distance between two points that are 92 m  apart in 6.5s. Its speed as it passes the second point is 14 m/s. What are (a) its speed at the first point and (b) its acceleration?

Since we are talking about constant acceleration, we can use the following equations:

d=x-x_{o}=(\frac{V_{o}-V}{2})t (1)

V=V_{o}+at (2)

Where:

d=92 m is the distance between the two points

V_{o} is the velocity of the emu at the first point

V=14 m/s is the velocity of the emu at the second point

t=6.5 s is the time it takes to the emu to cover the distance d

a is the emu's constant acceleration

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2>a) Speed at the first point</h2>

In this situation wi will use equation (1):

d=(\frac{V_{o}-V}{2})t (1)

Finding V_{o}:

V_{o}=\frac{2d}{t}-V (3)

V_{o}=\frac{2(92 m)}{6.5 s}-14 m/s (4)

V_{o}=14.30 m/s (5)

<h2>b) Emu's acceleration</h2>

Now we will substitute (5) in equation (2):

14 m/s=14.30 m/s+a(6.5 s) (6)

Finding a:

a=-0.046 m/s^{2} (7) This means the emu is decreasing its speed at a constant rate.

A block with mass m =6.9 kg is hung from a vertical spring. When the mass hangs in equilibrium, the spring stretches x = 0.24 m.
Burka [1]
U need to set up n solve the general eqn for simple harmonic motion:
x" = -(k/m)x

solution is x(t) = (x0)*cos(wt) + (v0/w)*sin(wt)
where w=sqrt(k/m), x0 is x-position at t=0 and v0 is vel at t=0
u already calculated f in Q.2 and w = 2*pi*f
x0 is 0 as it starts at eqm
v0 is given at 5.1

so u have x(t)

vel is given by x'(t) = (x0)*(-w)*sin(wt) + (v0/w)*w*cos(wt)

substitute t=0.32, x0=0, v0=5.1 n w in the above, u can solve for v at t=0.32.
