(a) 3.56 m/s 
(b) 11 - 3.72a 
(c) t = 5.9 s 
(d) -11 m/s  
For most of these problems, you're being asked the velocity of the rock as a function of t, while you've been given the position as a function of t. So first calculate the first derivative of the position function using the power rule. 
y = 11t - 1.86t^2 
y' = 11 - 3.72t 
Now that you have the first derivative, it will give you the velocity as a function of t. 
(a) Velocity after 2 seconds. 
y' = 11 - 3.72t 
y' = 11 - 3.72*2 = 11 - 7.44 = 3.56 
So the velocity is 3.56 m/s  
(b) Velocity after a seconds. 
y' = 11 - 3.72t 
y' = 11 - 3.72a  
So the answer is 11 - 3.72a  
(c) Use the quadratic formula to find the zeros for the position function y = 11t-1.86t^2. Roots are t = 0 and t = 5.913978495. The t = 0 is for the moment the rock was thrown, so the answer is t = 5.9 seconds.  
(d) Plug in the value of t calculated for (c) into the velocity function, so: 
y' = 11 - 3.72a
 y' = 11 - 3.72*5.913978495
 y' = 11 - 22
 y' = -11 
 So the velocity is -11 m/s which makes sense since the total energy of the rock will remain constant, so it's coming down at the same speed as it was going up.

a concrete slab 20 m long and weighing 400,000 N is supported by one pillar. A 19,600 N car is parked 8 meters from one end, whe
Elden [556K]

let the distance of pillar is "r" from one end of the slab

So here net torque must be balance with respect to pillar to be in balanced state

So here we will have

Mg(r - L/2) = mg(L/2 - 8)

here we know that

mg = 19600 N

Mg = 400,000 N

L = 20 m

from above equation we have

400,000(r - 10) = 19,600 (10 - 8)

r - 10 = 0.098

r = 10.098 m

so pillar is at distance 10.098 m from one end of the slab

A player kicks a soccer ball in a high arc toward the opponent's goal. At the highest point in its trajectory
____ [38]

At the highest point in its trajectory, the ball's acceleration is zero but its velocity is not zero.

<h3>What's the velocity of the ball at the highest point of the trajectory?</h3>
  • At the highest point, the ball doesn't go more high. So its vertical velocity is zero.
  • However, the ball moves horizontal, so its horizontal component of velocity is non - zero i.e. u×cosθ.
  • u= initial velocity, θ= angle of projection

<h3>What's the acceleration of the ball at the highest point of projectile?</h3>
  • During the whole projectile motion, the earth exerts the gravitational force with a acceleration of gravity along vertical direction.
  • But as there's no acceleration along vertical direction, so the acceleration along vertical direction is zero.

Thus, we can conclude that the acceleration is zero and velocity is non-zero at the highest point projectile motion.

Disclaimer: The question was given incomplete on the portal. Here is the complete question.

Question: Player kicks a soccer ball in a high arc toward the opponent's goal. At the highest point in its trajectory

A- neither the ball's velocity nor its acceleration are zero.

B- the ball's acceleration points upward.

C- the ball's acceleration is zero but its velocity is not zero.

D- the ball's velocity points downward.
