A motorcyclist who is moving along an x axis directed toward the east has an acceleration given by a = (6.30 - 2.20t) m/s2 for 0

≤ t ≤ 6.0 s. At t = 0, the velocity and position of the cyclist are 3.00 m/s and 7.3 m. (a) What is the maximum speed achieved by the cyclist? (b) What total distance does the cyclist travel between t = 0 and 6.0 s?

<span>(a) 12.02 m/s
 (b) 52.2 meters

   This problem is an example of integral calculus. You've been given an acceleration vector which is usually known as the 2nd derivative. From that you need to calculate the velocity function (1st derivative) and position (actual function) by successively calculating the anti-derivative. So:
   A(t) = 6.30 - 2.20t
 V(t) = 6.30t - 1.10t^2 + C

   We now have a velocity function, but need to determine C. Since we've been given the velocity at t = 0, that's fairly trivial.
 V(t) = 6.30t - 1.10t^2 + C
 3 = 6.30*0 - 1.10*0^2 + C
 3 = 0 + 0 + C
 3 = C

    So the entire velocity function is:
 V(t) = 6.30t - 1.10t^2 + 3
 V(t) = -1.10t^2 + 6.30t + 3

   Now for the location function which is the anti-derivative of the velocity function.
  V(t) = -1.10t^2 + 6.30t + 3
  L(t) = -0.366666667t^3 + 3.15t^2 + 3t + C

   Now we need to calculate C. And once again, we've been given the location for t = 0, so
 L(t) = -0.366666667t^3 + 3.15t^2 + 3t + C
 7.3 = -0.366666667*0^3 + 3.15*0^2 + 3*0 + C
 7.3 = 0 + 0 + 0 + C
 7.3 = C

   L(t) = -0.366666667t^3 + 3.15t^2 + 3t + 7.3

   Now that we have the functions, they are:
 A(t) = 6.30 - 2.20t
 V(t) = -1.10t^2 + 6.30t + 3
 L(t) = -0.366666667t^3 + 3.15t^2 + 3t + 7.3

    let's answer the questions.
 (a) What is the maximum speed achieved by the cyclist?
 This can only happen at those points that meet either of the following criteria.
  1. The derivative is undefined for the point.
  2. The value of the derivative is 0 for the point.
 As it turns out, the 1st derivative of the velocity function is the acceleration function which we have. So
 A(t) = 6.30 - 2.20t
 0 = 6.30 - 2.20t
  2.20t = 6.30
 t = 2.863636364

   So one of V(0), V(2.863636364), or V(6) will be the maximum value. Therefore: V(0) = 3
 V(2.863636364) = 12.0204545454545
 V(6) = 1.2

   So the maximum speed achieved is 12.02 m/s

   (b) Total distance traveled?
 L(0) = 7.3
 L(6) = 59.5
 Distance traveled = 59.5 m - 7.3 m = 52.2 meters</span>

As capacitor was discharging, what did you observe about q on its plates and the motion of charges in the external circuit?
liubo4ka [24]

As capacitor was discharging, The charge on the plate got reversed and the motion of charge is opposite to the flow of current.

The charging contemporary asymptotically processes 0 as the capacitor becomes charged up to the battery voltage.

The capacitor is completely charged when the voltage of the electricity supply is equal to that at the capacitor terminals. that is referred to as capacitor charging; and the charging segment is over when modern-day stops flowing thru the electrical circuit.

A capacitor can be slowly charged to the important voltage and then discharged quick to provide the power wanted. it's far even viable to charge several capacitors to a positive voltage and then discharge them in any such way as to get extra voltage out of the gadget than became installed.

What happen as waves travel and objects in their path move?
Cerrena [4.2K]
Do you mean when objects move as a direct result of the passing wave? Waves have energy and constitute a force, just like wind. Therefore that force is able to move objects in its path.
