<span>EP (potential energy) = mgy -> (59)(9.8)(-5) = -2,891
   EP + EK (kinetic energy) = 0; but rearranging it for EK makes it EK = -EP, such that EK = 2891 when plugged in.
   EK = 0.5mv^2, but can also be v = sqrt(2EK/m).
   Plugging that in for sqrt((2 * 2891)/59), we get 9.9 m/s^2 with respect to significant figures.</span>

Identify two factors you must know to describe the motion of an object along a straight line
Sveta_85 [38]

In order to describe motion along a straight line, you must state the speed and direction of the motion. Those two quantities, together, comprise what's known as "velocity".

Answer:

v = 5.15 m/s

Explanation:

At constant velocity, the cable tension will equal the car weight of 984(9.81) = 9,653 N

As the cable tension is less than this value, the car must be accelerating downward.

7730 = 984(9.81 - a)

a = 1.95 m/s²

kinematic equations s = ut + ½at² and v = u + at

-5.00 = u(4.00) + ½(-1.95)4.00²

u = 2.65 m/s    the car's initial velocity was upward at 2.65 m/s

v = 2.65 + (-1.95)(4.00)

v = -5.15 m/s

A sinusoidal wave of angular frequency 1,203 rad/s and amplitude 3.1 mm is sent along a cord with linear density 3.9 g/m and ten
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

18.7842493212 W

Explanation:

T = Tension = 1871 N

\mu = Linear density = 3.9 g/m

y = Amplitude = 3.1 mm

\omega = Angular frequency = 1203 rad/s

Average rate of energy transfer is given by

P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{T\mu}\omega^2y^2\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{1871\times 3.9\times 10^{-3}}\times 1203^2\times (3.1\times 10^{-3})^2\\\Rightarrow P=18.7842493212\ W

The average rate at which energy is transported by the wave to the opposite end of the cord is 18.7842493212 W
