At t =0 one toy car is set rolling on a straight track with intial position 17.0 cm , intial velocity -3 cm/s, and constant acce

leration 2.30 cm/s^2 . At the same moment , another toy car is set rolling on an adjacent track with initial position 9.5 cm , intial velocity 5.0 cm/s, and constant zero acceleration. (A) at the time, if any, do the two cars have equal speeds? (B) what are their speeds at that time? (c) at what time(s) , if any , do the cars pass each other? (D) what are their location at that time?

Answer:

a) 5.65 s

b) 5cm/s

c) They will pass each other at both 1.1168 s and 5.84s

d)15.084cm and 38.7 cm

Explanation:

For part A, you need to keep in mind that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit of time. For a constant acceleration, this can be told in this way:

a = \frac{v - v_o}{t}

Reordering this equation, we can get v in terms of the initial velocity, the acceleration, and the time elapsed:

v = at + v_o

Now, we can get the expressions for velocity of each toy car, and equalize them:

v_1 =a_1t + v_o_1\\v_2 =a_2t + v_o_2\\v_1 = v2\\a_1t +v_o_1 =a_2t + v_o_2\\(a_1 - a_2)t = v_o_2 - v_o_1\\t = \frac{v_o_2 - v_o_1}{a_1 - a_2} = \frac{5cm/s - (-3cm/s)}{2.3 cm/s^2 - 0 cm/s^2}= 3.47 s

As toy car has no acceleration and, therefore, constant speed, both car will have the same speed when toy car 1 reaches this velocity = 5cm/s

c) The position of car 1, as it follows a constant acceleration motion, is given by this equation:

x_1 = \frac{1}{2}a_1t^2 + v_o_1t + x_o_1

The position for car 2, as it has constant velocity, is given by this equation:

x_2 = v_2t + x_o_2

We equalize both equation to find the time where the cars pass each other:

x_1 = x_2\\\frac{1}{2}a_1t^2 + v_o_1t + x_o_1 = v_2t+x_o_2\\\frac{1}{2} a_1t^2 + (v_o_1 - v_2)t + x_o_1 - x_o_2 = 0\\\frac{1}{2}2.3m/s^2t^2 +(-3cm/s-5cm/s)t+ 17cm - 9.5cm = 0\\1.15t^2 -8t + 7.5 = 0 | a = 1.15, b = -8, c = 7.5\\t = \frac{-b +-\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} = 5.84s | 1.1168 s

The car will pass each other at both 1.1168s and 5.84s.

For the positions, we solve any of the position equation with the solutions:

x = v_2*t + x_o_2 = 5cm/s *5.84s + 9.5cm = 38.7 cm\\x = 5cm/s * 1.1168s + 9.5cm = 15.084 cm

The focal length of the lens of a simple digital camera is 40 mm, and it is originally focused on a person 25 m away. In what di
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here image distance is fixed .

In the first case if v be image distance

1 / v - 1 / -25 = 1 / .05

1 / v = 1 / .05 - 1 / 25

= 20 - .04 = 19.96

v = .0501 m = 5.01 cm

In the second case

u = 4 ,

1 / v - 1 / - 4 = 1 / .05

1 / v = 20 - 1 / 4 = 19.75

v = .0506 = 5.06 cm

So lens must be moved forward by 5.06 - 5.01 =  .05 cm ( away from film )

a ball is shot from the ground straight up into the air with initial velocity of 50 50 ft/sec. assuming that the air resistance
Anna [14]

The height attained by the ball is 11.86m

a ball is shot from the ground straight up into the air its initial and final velocity is

initial velocity, u = 50 ft/s = 50×0.305  = 15.25m/s

final velocity ,v = 0 m/s

gravity =-9.8 m/s²

( negative sign shows acceleration in opposite direction)

height =?

using the newton motion of equation

v² = u² + 2as

where

a= acceleration due to gravity(g)

s = height

v² = u² + 2gs

(0)² = (15.25)² + 2×(-9.8)×s

0  = (15.25)² -  19.6 × s

s= - (15.25)²/ 19.6

s = 11.86m

after ignoring the air resistance the maximum height of the ball is 11.86m

To determine the types of equipment your boat must carry, you need to make a measurement of the boat. What is this measurement?
jenyasd209 [6]

Explanation:

In total, the length is measured from the tip of the bow in a linear fashion to the stern of the formation of delight including any back-deck extensions. The measurement involves bow sprits; rudders; detachable engines and engine sections; handles; and various fittings and connections.

Importance in calculating a boat's length:

it affects the transportation costs (the longer the length, the higher the cost).   The pontoon's length counts as you find out how much rope you need to wrestle.  

The cost of vessel settlement on marinas depends in part on the pontoon length. As more area is consumed by a more drawn pontoon, the docking charges are higher.  

Transportation guidelines will probably not allow pontoons past a specific length on specific occasions of the day.
