When measuring accelerations with three different graphs (x-t, v-t, a-t) which gives the most reliable results and why?

Physics

kipiarov [429]3 years ago

Answer:

the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.

Explanation:

The different graphics depending on time give various information, let's examine what we can get from some

Graph of x -t. from this graph we can obtain the speed through the slope, but the acceleration is not directly obtainable

v-t chart. We can get the acceleration not through the slope and the distance traveled by the area under the curve. Obtaining acceleration is very accurate since it is an average that avoids possible errors in measurements. This is the best graph to find the acceleration

Graph of a-t In this graph the acceleration is a point on the Y axis, it gives some errors because it depends strongly on the possible experimental errors.

In conclusion, the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.

A uniform rod of length L rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod pivots about a fixed frictionless axis at one end.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

A) ω = 6v/19L

B) K2/K1 = 3/19

Explanation:

Mr = Mass of rod

Mb = Mass of bullet = Mr/4

Ir = (1/3)(Mr)L²

Ib = MbRb²

Radius of rotation of bullet Rb = L/2

A) From conservation of angular momentum,

L1 = L2

(Mb)v(L/2) = (Ir+ Ib)ω2

Where Ir is moment of inertia of rod while Ib is moment of inertia of bullet.

(Mr/4)(vL/2) = [(1/3)(Mr)L² + (Mr/4)(L/2)²]ω2

(MrvL/8) = [((Mr)L²/3) + (MrL²/16)]ω2

Divide each term by Mr;

vL/8 = (L²/3 + L²/16)ω2

vL/8 = (19L²/48)ω2

Divide both sides by L to obtain;

v/8 = (19L/48)ω2

Thus;

ω2 = 48v/(19x8L) = 6v/19L

B) K1 = K1b + K1r

K1 = (1/2)(Mb)v² + Ir(w1²)

= (1/2)(Mr/4)v² + (1/3)(Mr)L²(0²)

= (1/8)(Mr)v²

K2 = (1/2)(Isys)(ω2²)

I(sys) is (Ir+ Ib). This gives us;

Isys = (19L²Mr/48)

K2 =(1/2)(19L²Mr/48)(6v/19L)²

= (1/2)(36v²Mr/(48x19)) = 3v²Mr/152

Thus, the ratio, K2/K1 =

[3v²Mr/152] / (1/8)(Mr)v² = 24/152 = 3/19

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t
QveST [7]

Answer:

(c) position

Explanation:

From the work-energy theorem, the workdone by a force on a body causes a change in kinetic energy of the body.

But, remember that the work done (W) by a force (F) on a body is the product of the force and the distance d, moved by the body caused by the force. i.e

W = F x d

This distance is a measure of the position of the body at a given instance.

Therefore, the work done is given by the force as a function of distance (or position).
