A dynamite blast at a quarry launches a rock straight upward, and 1.7 s later it is rising at a rate of 17 m/s. Assuming air res

istance has no effect on the rock, calculate its speed (a) at launch and (b) 4.9 s after launch.

Answer:

(a) v_0= 34m/s

(b) v=14m/s

Explanation:

We can derive the initial speed of the rock from the equation of the speed in function of the time:

v=v_0-gt\\\\\implies v_0=v+gt

Using the given values for the speed at time t=1.7s, we get:

v_0=17m/s+(9.8m/s^{2})(1.7s)=34m/s

In words, the speed of the rock at launch is 34m/s (a).

Next, we use this to calculate the speed at t=4.9s:

v=v_0-gt\\\\v= 34m/s-(9.8m/s^{2})(4.9s)=-14m/s

This means that the speed of the rock at 4.9s after the launch is 14m/s (b), and the negative sign means that it is moving downwards.

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

√(6ax)

Explanation:

Hi!

The question states that during a time t the motorcyle underwent a displacement x at constant acceleration a starting from rest, mathematically we can express it as:

x=(1/2)at^2

Then the we need to find the time t' for which the displacement is 3x

3x=(1/2)a(t')^2

Solving for t':

t'=√(6x/a)

Now, the velocity of the motorcycle as a function of time is:

v(t)=a*t

Evaluating at t=t'

v(t')=a*√(6x/a)=√(6*x*a)

Which is the final velocity

Have a nice day!

A positive charge +q1 is located to the left of a negative charge -q2. On a line passing through the two charges, there are two
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

please the answer below

Explanation:

(a) If we assume that our origin of coordinates is at the position of charge q1, we have that the potential in both points is

V_1=k\frac{q_1}{r-1.0}-k\frac{q_2}{1.0}=0\\\\V_2=k\frac{q_1}{r+5.2}-k\frac{q_2}{5.2}=0\\\\

k=8.89*10^9

For both cases we have

k\frac{q_1}{r-1.0}=k\frac{q_2}{1.0}\\\\q_1(1.0)=q_2(r-1.0)\\\\r=\frac{q_1+q_2}{q_2}\\\\k\frac{q_1}{r+5.2}=k\frac{q_2}{5.2}\\\\q_1(5.2)=q_2(r+5.2)\\\\r=\frac{5.2q_1-5.2q_2}{q_2}

(b) by replacing this values of r in the expression for V we obtain

k\frac{q_1}{\frac{5.2(q_1-q_2)}{q_2}+5.2}=k\frac{q_2}{5.2}\\\\\frac{q_1}{q_2}=\frac{(q_1-q_2)}{q_2}-1.0=\frac{q_1-q_2-q_2}{q_2}=\frac{q_1-2q_2}{q_2}

hope this helps!!
