La ecuación de la posición de una esferita está dada por: r(t)=(2.Cos(πt) i-3.Sen(πt) j) (m) ¿Cuál es la velocidad de la esferit
katovenus [111]

Answer:

v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s, a_average =( 0 i^ -2π j^) m/s²

Explanation:

The expression left corresponds to an oscillatory movement (MAS), the speed is defined by

         v = dr / dt

the function of position

         r = 2 cos πt  i^  + 3 sin πt  j^

let us note that it is a movement in two dimensions

let's perform the derivative

          v = -2π sin πt  i^  + 3π cos πt  j^

we evaluate this expression for t = 0.25 s, remember that the angle is in radians

          v = -2π sin (π 0.25) i^ + 3π cos (π 0.25) j^

           v = (-4.44 i^ + 6.66 j^ )  m/s

To calculate the mean acceleration we use the expression

           a = (v_{f} - v_{o}) / Δt

 

indicates that the time is the first 3 s

       

we look for the initial velocity t = 0 s

           v₀ = 0 i ^ + 3π j ^

         

we look for the fine velocity, t = 3 s

          v_f = - 2π sin (π 3) + 3π cos (π 3) j ^

          v_f = 0 i ^ - 3π j ^

we calculate the average acceleration

            Δt = (3 -0) = 3 s

           a_average = (0-0) / 3 i ^ + (-3π - 3π) / 3

           a_average = (0 i ^ -2π j ^ ) m/s²

What is the speed of the animal from 0-20s? <br><br> 50 m/s<br> 0.4 m/s<br> 20 m/s<br> 2.5 m/s
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

2.5 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the animal is given by the ratio between the distance travelled by the animal and the time elapsed:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the distance travelled and t the time elapsed. Note that this quantity is also equal to the slope of the curve.

In the time interval 0-20 s, we have

d = 50 m - 0 m = 50 m

t = 20 s - 0 s = 20 s

So, the speed is

v=\frac{50 m}{20 s}=2.5 m/s

Consider a short time span just before and after the spark plug in a gasoline engine ignites the fuel-air mixture and releases 1
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Temperature after ignition=7883.205 K

Explanation:

The number of moles is,

n=PV/RT

=(1.18x10^6)(47.9x10^-6)/8.314(325)

= 0.0209 moles

a) In this process volume is constant

Q=U

=nCv.dT

dT= Q/nCv

=1970/(1.5x8.314)(0.0209)

= 7558.205 K

The final temperature is,

= 7558.205+325

= 7883.205 K

Your hands get warm by a fire because _____energy is converted into heat energy​
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Your hands get warm by fire because chemical energy gets converted into heat energy. When the chemical bonds in the wood are released in the air which then mixes with oxygen and emit heat. This is the reason why it is always hot when you go near something that is burning or is up in flames.
