25.5 m/s in 5.75 s. What is the acceleration?

1 answer:

7 0

Acceleration units are in m/s^2 , so you take 25.5 m/s divided by 5.75s. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity :)

The spectrum of light from the moon should very strongly resemble the spectrum of sunlight. The reason is that any light from the moon started out from the sun. Any difference in their spectra is only due to the moon absorbing more of some wavelengths and less of others. But since the moon appears colorless gray, we don't expect any particular colors to be strongly absorbed, otherwise the moon would look to be the colors of the light that's left.

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 6 ft from the path and is kept fo

We are given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt} = 4ft/s$

We need to find $\frac{d\theta}{dt}$ when $x=8ft$

The equation that relates x and $\theta$ can be written as,

$\frac{x}{6} tan\theta$

$x = 6tan\theta$

Differentiating each side with respect to t, we get,

$\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dx}{d\theta} \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\frac{dx}{dt} = (6sec^2\theta)\cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6sec^2\theta} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}$

Replacing the value of the velocity

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6} cos^2\theta (4)^2$

$\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} cos^2\theta$

The value of $cos \theta$ could be found if we know the length of the beam. With this value the equation can be approximated to the relationship between the sides of the triangle that is being formed in order to obtain the numerical value. If this relation is known for the value of x = 6ft, the mathematical relation is obtained. I will add a numerical example (although the answer would end in the previous point) If the length of the beam was 10, then we would have to
