A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to a speed of 72 km per hour over a distance of 500m. calculate acceleration​

Physics
1 answer:
Kisachek [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

0.4 m/s^2 or 5184 km/h^2

Explanation:

To find the acceleration, given the inicial and final speed of the car, we can use the Torricelli's formula:

V^2 = Vo^2 + 2*a*D

Where V is the final speed, Vo is the inicial speed, a is the acceleration and D is the distance travelled. So, with V = 72 km/h, Vo = 0 (starts from rest) and D = 0.5 km, we have:

72^2 = 0 ^2 + 2*a*0.5

a = 72^2 = 5184 km/h^2

For an acceleration in m/s^2, we should use the speed in meters per second (72 / 3.6 = 20 m/s) and the distance in meters (D = 500):

20^2 = 0^2 + 2*a*500

400 = 1000a

a = 0.4 m/s^2

Find the energy u of the capacitor in terms of c and q by using the definition of capacitance and the formula for the energy in
gtnhenbr [62]

The formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

<h3>What is the energy of a capacitor?</h3>

The energy of a capacitor u = 1/2qv where

  • q = charge on capacitor and
  • v = voltage across capacitor.

<h3>What is the capacitance of a capacitor?</h3>

Also, the capacitance of a capacitor c = q/v where

  • q = charge on capacitor and
  • v = voltage across capacitor.

So, v = q/c

<h3>The formula for energy of the capacitor in terms of q and c</h3>

Substituting v into u, we have

u = 1/2qv

= 1/2q(q/c)

= q²/2c

So, the formula for the energy in a capacitor , u in terms of q and c is q²/2c

Two particles, each of mass m, are initially at rest very far apart.Obtain an expression for their relative speed of approach at
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

|\Delta v |=\sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{d} }

Explanation:

Consider two particles are initially at rest.

Therefore,

the kinetic energy of the particles is zero.

That initial K.E. = 0

The relative velocity with which both the particles are approaching each other is Δv and their reduced masses are

\mu= \frac{m_1m_2}{m_1+m_2}

now, since both the masses have mass m

therefore,

\mu= \frac{m^2}{2m}

= m/2

The final K.E. of the particles is

KE_{final}=\frac{1}{2}\times \mu\times \Delta v^2

Distance between two particles is d and the gravitational potential energy between them is given by

PE_{Gravitational}= \frac{Gmm}{d}

By law of conservation of energy we have

KE_{initial}+KE_{final}= PE_{gravitaional}

Now plugging the values we get

0+\frac{1}{2}\frac{m}{2}\Delta v^2= -\frac{Gmm}{d}

|\Delta v |=\sqrt{\frac{4Gm}{d} }

=\sqrt{\frac{Gm}{d} }

This the required relation between G,m and d
