momentum conservation

75x2 = 30 x her speed

75x2/30=150/30=5m/s

Sam's job at the amusement park is to slow down and bring to a stop the boats in the log ride. You may want to review ( pages 29

hjlf

The work that Sam should do in order to stop is the boat is the same as that of the kinetic energy of the object in order to counter its motion. Kinetic energy is calculated through the equation,
KE = 0.5mv²
where KE is kinetic energy, m is mass, and v is the velocity.
Substituting,
KE = 0.5(1200kg)(1.2 m/s)²
<em>KE = 864 J</em>

A rocket is launched straight up with constant acceleration. Four seconds after liftoff, a bolt falls off the side of the rocket

Olenka [21]

Answer:

1.3m/s²

Explanation:

Given values in the first part: acceleration a, time t₁:

1) velocity v₀ $= at_1$

2) height h₀ $=\frac{1}{2}at_1^2$

Given values in the second part: acceleration -g, time t₂:

3) height h $= -\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2+v_0t_2+h_0$

Combining equations 1,2,3 and setting h to zero:

$0=-\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2+(at_1)t_2+\frac{1}{2}at_1^2\\ 0=a(t_1t_2+\frac{1}{2}t_1^2)-\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2$

Solve for a with t₁ = 4s and t₂=2.1s:

$a=\frac{1}{2}gt_2^2(\frac{1}{t_1t_2+\frac{1}{2}t_1^2})$
