a) See graph in attachment

b) The suvat equation to use is v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2as

c) The acceleration is a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}

d) The acceleration is 1.25 m/s^2

e) The time needed is 8 s

Explanation:

a)

For this part, find in attachment the diagram representing this situation.

Since we are not given any particular direction for the motion, we choose the x-direction as the direction of motion of the boat.

Then we have the following:

- The initial position of the boat is x_i = 0, the origin

- The  final position of the boat is x_f = 200 m

- The initial velocity of the boat is v_i = 20.0 m/s

- The final velocity of the boat is v_f = 30.0 m/s

Note that the arrow representing the final velocity is longer than that of the initial velocity, since the final velocity is larger.

b)

The motion of the speed boat is a uniformly accelerated motion (motion at constant acceleration), therefore we can use one of the suvat equations. In this particular problem, we know the following quantities:

v_i = 20.0 m/s, the initial velocity

v_f = 30.0 m/s, the final velocity

s = x_f - x_i = 200 m, the  displacement of the boat

Therefore, the equation that best can be use to find the acceleration is

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2as

where

a is the acceleration

c)

Now we have to solve the equation

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2as

In order to find the acceleration.

This can be done by dividing both terms by 2s: this way, we find

\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}=\frac{2as}{2s}

And so the acceleration is

a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2s}

d)

Now we can use the equation found in part c) in order to find the acceleration.

We have the following data:

v_i = 20.0 m/s, the initial velocity

v_f = 30.0 m/s, the final velocity

s = x_f - x_i = 200 m, the  displacement of the boat

And substituting into the equation,

a=\frac{30^2-20^2}{2(200)}=1.25 m/s^2

e)

In order to find the time it takes the boat to travel the given distance, we can use the following suvat equation:

v_f = v_i + at

where:

v_i is the initial velocity

v_f is the final velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

Here we have:

v_i = 20.0 m/s

v_f = 30.0 m/s

a=1.25 m/s^2

Solving for t, we find:

t=\frac{v_f-v_i}{a}=\frac{30-20}{1.25}=8 s

Consider a glider flying at 400 meters altitude, when suddenly all its static ports become blocked by volcanic ash. The pressure
Furkat [3]

Answer:

the airspeed indicated by the pitot-tube driven airspeed indicator is 91.23m/s

Explanation:

Pitot tube

U = \sqrt{\frac{(p_t - p_s)2}{d} }

U = velocity(m/s)

p_t= stagnation pressure (pa)

p_s= static pressure (pa)

d = fluid density(kg/m³)

p_t = p_a_t_m + \frac{1}{2} dv^2

v = true velocity

= 101325 + 1/2(1.225)(25)²

p_t = 101,707.8125pa

p_s = 96,610pa

d = 1.225kg/m³

U = \sqrt{\frac{2(101,707.8125 - 96,610)}{1.225} } \\\\U = 91.23m/s

the airspeed indicated by the pitot-tube driven airspeed indicator is 91.23m/s

The aqueous humor in a person's eye is exerting a force of 0.242 N on the 1.21 cm2 area of the cornea. What pressure is this in
Virty [35]

Answer:

<h2><em>15.00124mmHg</em></h2>

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as the ratio of force applied to an object to its area.

Pressure = Force/Area

Given parameters

Force = 0.242N

Area = 1.21cm²

Required parameters

Pressure = 0.242/1.21

Pressure = 0.2N/cm²

Using the conversion to convert the pressure to mmHg

1N/cm² = 75.0062mmHg

0.2N/cm² = y

y = 0.2 * 75.0062

y = 15.00124mmHg

<em>Hence the pressure in mmHg is 15.00124mmHg</em>

A horizontal 826 N merry-go-round of radius 1.17 m is started from rest by a constant horizontal force of 57.8 N applied tangent
Julli [10]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the merry-go-round is \bf{475.47~J}.

Explanation:

Given:

Weight of the merry-go-round, W_{g} = 826~N

Radius of the merry-go-round, r = 1.17~m

the force on the merry-go-round, F = 57.8~N

Acceleration due to gravity, g= 9.8~m.s^{-2}

Time given, t=3.47~s

Mass of the merry-go-round is given by

m &=& \dfrac{W_{g}}{g}\\~~~~&=& \dfrac{826~N}{9.8~m.s^{-2}}\\~~~~&=& 84.29~Kg

Moment of inertial of the merry-go-round is given by

I &=& \dfrac{1}{2}mr^{2}\\~~~&=& \dfrac{1}{2}(84.29~Kg)(1.17~m)^{2}\\~~~&=& 57.69~Kg.m^{2}

Torque on the merry-go-round is given by

\tau &=& F.r\\~~~&=& (57.8~N)(1.17~m)\\~~~&=& 67.63~N.m

The angular acceleration is given by

\alpha &=& \dfrac{\tau}{I}\\~~~&=& \dfrac{67.63~N.m}{57.69~Kg.m^{2}}\\~~~&=& 1.17~rad.s^{-2}

The angular velocity is given by

\omega &=& \alpha.t\\~~~&=& (1.17~rad.s^{-2})(3.47~s)\\~~~&=& 4.06~rad.s^{-1}

The kinetic energy of the merry-go-round is given by

E &=& \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^{2}\\~~~&=&\dfrac{1}{2}(57.69~Kg.m^{2})(4.06~rad.s^{-1})^{2}\\~~~&=& 475.47~J
