Answer:
rolling ball down a hill
Explanation:
A rolling ball has kinetic energy
348.34 m/s. When Superman reaches the train, his final velocity will be 348.34 m/s.
To solve this problem, we are going to use the kinematics equations for constant aceleration. The key for this problem are the equations
and
where
is distance,
is the initial velocity,
is the final velocity,
is time, and
is aceleration.
Superman's initial velocity is
, and he will have to cover a distance d = 850m in a time t = 4.22s. Since we know
,
and
, we have to find the aceleration
in order to find
.
From the equation
we have to clear
, getting the equation as follows:
.
Substituting the values:

To find
we use the equation
.
Substituting the values:

Answer:
The correct answer is B)
Explanation:
When a wheel rotates without sliding, the straight-line distance covered by the wheel's center-of-mass is exactly equal to the rotational distance covered by a point on the edge of the wheel. So given that the distances and times are same, the translational speed of the center of the wheel amounts to or becomes the same as the rotational speed of a point on the edge of the wheel.
The formula for calculating the velocity of a point on the edge of the wheel is given as
= 2π r / T
Where
π is Pi which mathematically is approximately 3.14159
T is period of time
Vr is Velocity of the point on the edge of the wheel
The answer is left in Meters/Seconds so we will work with our information as is given in the question.
Vr = (2 x 3.14159 x 1.94m)/2.26
Vr = 12.1893692/2.26
Vr = 5.39352619469
Which is approximately 5.39
