Your answer would be A. You divide 96 by 16 to find the answer
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.
The cart's acceleration is
(0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)
= ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²) = -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .
Newton's second law of motion says
Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .
For this cart: Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)
= ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)
<span> = </span>- 10 newtons .
<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>
Answer:
2.2 s
Explanation:
Using the equation for the period of a physical pendulum, T = 2π√(I/mgh) where I = moment of inertia of leg about perpendicular axis at one point = mL²/3 where m = mass of man = 67 kg and L = height of man = 1.83 m, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and h = distance of leg from center of gravity of man = L/2 (center of gravity of a cylinder)
So, T = 2π√(I/mgh)
T = 2π√(mL²/3 /mgL/2)
T = 2π√(2L/3g)
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
T = 2π√(2L/3g)
T = 2π√(2 × 1.83 m/(3 × 9.8 m/s² ))
T = 2π√(3.66 m/(29.4 m/s² ))
T = 2π√(0.1245 s² ))
T = 2π(0.353 s)
T = 2.22 s
T ≅ 2.2 s
So, the period of the man's leg is 2.2 s
