Answer:
3rd order polynomial
Explanation:
Given that the increase in the order of the polynomial the error between the curve fit and measured data will decreases hence :
The polynomial order that is best to use is the 3rd order polynomial, this is because using a 3rd order polynomial will produce a less variance and a low Bias
Answer:
Explanation:
Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s
An impulse results in a change of momentum
The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s
The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 = 4.38e6 kg•m/s
The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s
The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.
The initial barge momentum will be zero in
t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds
To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply
4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N
Question:
A particle moving along the x-axis has a position given by x=(24t - 2.0t³)m, where t is measured in s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle at the instant when its velocity is zero
Answer:
24 m/s
Explanation:
Given:
x=(24t - 2.0t³)m
First find velocity function v(t):
v(t) = ẋ(t) = 24 - 2*3t²
v(t) = ẋ(t) = 24 - 6t²
Find the acceleration function a(t):
a(t) = Ẍ(t) = V(t) = -6*2t
a(t) = Ẍ(t) = V(t) = -12t
At acceleration = 0, take time as T in velocity function.
0 =v(T) = 24 - 6T²
Solve for T
Substitute -2 for t in acceleration function:
a(t) = a(T) = a(-2) = -12(-2) = 24 m/s
Acceleration = 24m/s
