When a 1984 Alfa Romeo Spider sports car accelerates at the maximum possible rate, its motion during the first 20 is extremely w

ell modeled by the simple equation v2x=2Pmt where P=3.6104W is the car's power output, m = 1200kg is its mass, and vx is in m/s. That is, the square of the car's velocity increases linearly with time.
a) What is the car's speed at t=11 s ?

b) What is the car's speed at t=18 s ?

c)Find a symbolic expression, in terms of P, m, and t, for the car's acceleration at time t.

Answer:

a-)v_{x} = 25.69 m/s

b-)v_{x} = 32.86 m/s

c-)a = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}}{ 2\sqrt{t}}}\\

d-)a= 3.87 m/s^{2}

e-)a= 1.22 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

First, lay out the given data:

P = 3.6 x 10^4 W

m=1200 kg

v_{x} ^{2}=\frac{2P}{m}t\\v_{x} ^{2}=\frac{2*3.6*10^{4}}{1200} *t

a)What is the car's speed at t=11 s ?

v_{x}^{2}=\frac{2*3.6*10^{4}}{1200} *t\\v_{x}=\sqrt{60*11} \\v_{x} = 25.69 m/s

b) What is the car's speed at t=18 s ?

v_{x}^{2}=\frac{2*3.6*10^{4}}{1200} *t\\v_{x}=\sqrt{60*18} \\v_{x} = 32.86 m/s

c) Find a symbolic expression, in terms of P, m, and t, for the car's acceleration at time t.

An expression for the acceleration can be defined by finding the derivative of the velocity equation:

v_{x} =\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}t}\\\frac{d(v_{x})}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}t})\\\frac{d(v_{x})}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt}(\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}*t^{\frac{1}{2}} )\\\frac{d(v_{x})}{dt} = (\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}* \frac{1}{2}t^{\frac{-1}{2}} )\\\\\frac{d(v_{x})}{dt} = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}}{ 2\sqrt{t}}}\\a = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}}{ 2\sqrt{t}}}\\

d) Evaluate the acceleration at t=1.0 s

a = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}}{ 2\sqrt{t}}}\\\\a = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2*3.6*10^{4}}{1200}}}{ 2\sqrt{1}}}\\\\a= 3.87 m/s^{2}

e) Evaluate the acceleration at t=10 s

a = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2P}{m}}}{ 2\sqrt{t}}}\\\\a = \frac{\sqrt{ \frac{2*3.6*10^{4}}{1200}}}{ 2\sqrt{10}}}\\\\a= 1.22 m/s^{2}

Why should you never use the coarse adjustment on high power
umka21 [38]

Answer:

First, the image moves in and out of focus too quickly, so that it is difficult to precisely adjust the focus. Second, you run the risk of crashing the objective into the slide. Use the coarse focus only with the 4x low power objective. You can use the fine focus knob with all objectives.

For the meter stick shown in figure 10-4, the force F1 10.0 N acts at 10.0 cm. What is the magnitude of torque due to F1 about a
Phantasy [73]

Torque is equal position vector times (r) times force vector (F).  Since F= 10 N and r = 0.1 m, so the torque is equal to (10 N) x ( 0.1 m) = 1Nm. The direction of the torque would be into the screen, clockwise rotation.

When a car drives over a speed bump and oscillates up and down in simple harmonic motion, at which position during the motion is
Oksana_A [137]
Using the second Law of Newton, F = m * a, you know that acceleration is maximum when the force is maximum.


Using Hooke's Law, F = K Δx, you know that the force is maximum when the displacement from the equilibrium (Δx) is maximum.


So the answer is that the acceleration is maximum at the maximum amplitude x = a.
