Information that is given:
a = -5.4m/s^2
v0 = 25 m/s
---------------------
S = ?
Calculate the S(distance car traveled) with the formula for velocity of decelerated motion:
v^2 = v0^2 - 2aS
The velocity at the end of the motion equals zero (0) because the car stops, so v=0.
0 = v0^2 - 2aS
v0^2 = 2aS
S = v0^2/2a
S = (25 m/s)^2/(2×5.4 m/s^2)
S = (25 m/s)^2/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = (625 m^2/s^2)/(10.8 m/s^2)
S = 57.87 m

In what direction would you head from New York state to find warmer temperatures
Anni [7]
Head south. If you traveled west, it would gradually get warmer because the Pacific Coast is warmer than the Atlantic. But the quickest change would be if you traveled south to North Carolina and there you would experience warmer temperatures.
The climate would still be humid as it's still near the coast, but since it's closer to the equator, it would be warmer.

A thin rod of length 0.75 m and mass 0.42 kg is suspended
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

a)  K = 0.63 J, b)  h = 0.153 m

Explanation:

a) In this exercise we have a physical pendulum since the rod is a material object, the angular velocity is

         w² = \frac{m g d}{I}

where d is the distance from the pivot point to the center of mass and I is the moment of inertia.

The rod is a homogeneous body so its center of mass is at the geometric center of the rod.

              d = L / 2

the moment of inertia of the rod is the moment of a rod supported at one end

              I = ⅓ m L²

we substitute

            w = \sqrt{\frac{mgL}{2}  \ \frac{1}{\frac{1}{3} mL^2} }

            w = \sqrt{\frac{3}{2}  \ \frac{g}{L} }

            w = \sqrt{ \frac{3}{2} \ \frac{9.8}{0.75}  }

            w = 4.427 rad / s

an oscillatory system is described by the expression

              θ = θ₀ cos (wt + Φ)

the angular velocity is

             w = dθ /dt

             w = - θ₀ w sin (wt + Ф)

In this exercise, the kinetic energy is requested in the lowest position, in this position the energy is maximum. For this expression to be maximum, the sine function must be equal to ±1

In the exercise it is indicated that at the lowest point the angular velocity is

           w = 4.0 rad / s

the kinetic energy is

           K = ½ I w²

           K = ½ (⅓ m L²) w²

           K = 1/6 m L² w²

           K = 1/6 0.42 0.75² 4.0²

           K = 0.63 J

b) for this part let's use conservation of energy

starting point. Lowest point

             Em₀ = K = ½ I w²

final point. Highest point

             Em_f = U = m g h

energy is conserved

             Em₀ = Em_f

             ½ I w² = m g h

             ½ (⅓ m L²) w² = m g h

             h = 1/6 L² w² / g

             h = 1/6 0.75² 4.0² / 9.8

             h = 0.153 m
