Position:                 x = 18t    y = 4t - 4.9t²

First derivative:        x' = 18      y' = 4 - 9.8t

Second derivative:    x'' = 0        y'' = - 9.8


Position vector:      P  =  (18t) i  +  (4t - 4.9t²) j

Velocity vector:      V  =  (18) i  +  (4 - 9.8t) j

Acceleration vector  A  =              (- 9.8) j

Explanation:

It is given that,

A golf ball is hit off a tee at the edge of a cliff. The x component is given by, x = 18 t

y component is given by, y = 4 t - 4.9 t²

Where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds.

(a) The ball’s position as a function of time, using the unit vectors is given by :

r=18t+(4t-4.9t^2)

(b) Velocity, v=\dfrac{dr}{dt}

v=\dfrac{d(18t+(4t-4.9t^2)}{dt}

v=18+(4-9.8t)

i.e. v = 18 i +(4 - 9.8t) j

(c) Acceleration vector, a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

a=\dfrac{d(18i+(4-9.8t)j}{dt}

a = -9.8 j m/s²

(d) Expressions for the position at t = 3 s

r=18(3)i+(4(3)-4.9(3)^2)j

r = (54 i - 32.1 j) m

Expressions for the velocity at t = 3 s

v = 18 i +(4 - 9.8(3)) j

v = (18 i -25.4 j) m/s

Expressions for the acceleration at t = 3 s

a = -9.8 m/s² j

Hence, this is the required solution.

A bullet travels at 850 m/s. how long will it take a bullet to go 1 km?
Dmitrij [34]
The speed of bullet =
850 m/s

Distance given = 1 km = 1000m

S = D/t
t • S = D/t • t
St = D
St/S = D/S
t = D/S
t = 1000m/850m/s
t = 1.176 s

It will take the bullet 1.176 or about 1.18 seconds to go 1 km.

This exercise uses the radioactive decay model. After 3 days a sample of radon-222 has decayed to 58% of its original amount. (a
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: a) 3.85 days

b) 10.54 days

Explanation:-

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = ?

t = time taken for decomposition  = 3 days

a = let initial amount of the reactant  = 100 g

a - x = amount left after decay process  = \frac{58}{100}\times 100=58g

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

k=\frac{2.303}{3}\log\frac{100}{58}

k=0.18days^{-1}

a) Half-life of radon-222:

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0.693}{0.18}=3.85days

Thus half-life of radon-222 is 3.85 days.

b) Time taken for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount:

where,

k = rate constant  = 0.18days^{-1}

t = time taken for decomposition  = ?

a = let initial amount of the reactant  = 100 g

a - x = amount left after decay process  = \frac{15}{100}\times 100=15g

t=\frac{2.303}{0.18}\log\frac{100}{15}

t=10.54days

Thus it will take 10.54 days for the sample to decay to 15% of its original amount.

If the AMA of the inclined plane below is 2, calculate the IMA and efficiency. IMA = Efficiency =
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

IMA = 2.5 metres

EFFICIENCY = 80%

Explanation:

The AMA of a machine is referred to as the Actual Mechanical Advantage of a machine, calculated as the ratio of the output to the input force.

The Ideal Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the input distance to the output distance.

From the diagram, the input distance which is also the distance moved by effort  = 5metres

The load distance (output distance) = 2 metres

IMA = INPUT DISTANCE / OUTPUT DISTANCE

IMA = 5metres / 2 metres = 2.5 meters

Efficiency is the ratio of AMA TO IMA

AMA = 2, IMA = 2.5

EFFICIENCY = AMA / IMA

EFFICIENCY = (2 / 2.5) × 100%= 0.8 × 100%

EFFICIENCY = 80%
