The important thing to note here is the direction of motion of the test rocket. Since it mentions that the rocket travels vertically upwards, then this motion can be applied to rectilinear equations that are derived from Newton's Laws of Motions.These useful equations are:
y = v₁t + 1/2 at²
a = (v₂-v₁)/t
where
y is the vertical distance travelled
v₁ is the initial velocity
v₂ is the final velocity
t is the time
a is the acceleration
When a test rocket is launched, there is an initial velocity in order to launch it to the sky. However, it would gradually reach terminal velocity in the solar system. At this point, the final velocity is equal to 0. So, v₂ = 0. Let's solve the second equation first.
a = (v₂-v₁)/t
a = (0-30)/t
a = -30/t
Let's substitute a to the first equation:
y = v₁t + 1/2 at²
49 = 30t + 1/2 (-30/t)t²
49 = 30t -15t
49 = 15 t
t = 49/15
t = 3.27 seconds
Answer:
0.49m
Explanation:
So you need to change the original equation for finding fields to find distance, and then just plug in the numbers
Which equals 0.49meters
Also it was right on Acellus :)
Hope this helps
Great question !
The rate at which an object covers distance, without worrying
about the direction it's moving, is the object's SPEED .
When the direction is also given, then you have the object's VELOCITY.
This question is important. It gives us a chance to point out that
"velocity" is not just a fancy word for speed that you use when you
want to sound smart. There's actually an important difference between
'speed' and 'velocity'.
Answer:
length = 7*10^(-8)km
width = 4.666*10^(-8) km
Explanation:
We know that:
1 μm = 1*10^(-6) m
and
1km = 1*10^3 m
or
1m = 1*10^(-3) km
if we replace the meter in the first equation, we get:
1 μm = 1*10^(-6)*1*10^(-3) km
1 μm = 1*10^(-6 - 3)km
1 μm = 1*10^(-9)km
Now with this relationship we can transform our measures:
Length: 70 μm is 70 times 1*10^(-9)km, or:
L = 70*1*10^(-9)km = 7*10^(-8)km
And for width, we have 47.66um, this is 46.66 times 1*10^(-9)km, or:
W = 46.66*1*10^(-9)km = 4.666*10^(-8) km
Answer:
1. 3 m
2. 27 s
Explanation:
1. "A car traveling at +33 m/s sees a red light and has to stop. If the driver can accelerate at -5.5 m/s², how far does it travel?"
Given:
v₀ = 33 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -5.5 m/s²
Unknown: Δx
To determine the equation you need, look for which variable you don't have and aren't solving for. In this case, we aren't given time and aren't solving for time. So look for an equation that doesn't have t in it.
Equation: v² = v₀² + 2aΔx
Substitute and solve:
(0 m/s)² = (33 m/s)² + 2(-5.5 m/s²) Δx
Δx = 3 m
2. "A plane starting from rest at one end of a runway accelerates at 4.8 m/s² for 1800 m. How long did it take to accelerate?"
Given:
v₀ = 0 m/s
a = 4.8 m/s²
Δx = 1800 m
Unknown: t
Equation: Δx = v₀ t + ½ a t²
Substitute and solve:
1800 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.8 m/s²) t²
t ≈ 27 s
